JacksonS asked:


Will I damage the battery on my garmin gps(nuvi 250) if i recharge it with an ac adapter before the battery is completely dead?

    No it will be fine. I have a garmin nuvi 680. I just charge it when it is low.

    when you die your not going to take all your stuff with you, just use the navigation device and charge it whenever its low. you buy things and nothings going to last forever =] live your life like no tommorw. happy new year

    No, it’s fine to recharge it whenever is convenient.
    It is good for the battery to let it fully discharge every now and then but there is certainly no need to do that every time.

    You won’t damage the battery but you will prolong it’s use by not leaving it on the charger all the time. Allow it to run down and recharge is the best advice for these Li-Ion batteries. I checked in my user manual that I received from my new 265WT that I bought from
