Showing my ignorance here, but having just bought a new satnav (first one) does anyone know if I can charge the damn thing while I am driving?

Thanks for that reply mate, I should have been a bit more explicit though. I'm sure I read somewhere that you shouldn't charge it while the engine is actually running i.e. driving, because of surges from the battery if you accelerate or something!
I don't know whether it's a good or a bad thing that modern gadgetry has passed me by!

Braintree and Dartford...I wouldn't imagine those places are programmed into a Satnav!  Thanks for the info though mate...unlike some of the other miserable gits on this site! |

An in car charger will work fine Reg sat navs phones etc have built in protection should the voltage ever gets to high
