Garmin Nuvi 760 Battery Replacement Kit with Installation Video, Tools, and Extended Life Battery. #

Garmin Nuvi 760 Battery Replacement Kit with Installation Video, Tools, and Extended Life Battery. #361-00019-11
  • Guaranteed for One Full Year
  • High Capacity 1250 mAh 3.7V Battery
  • Replaces Garmin Nuvi 760 Battery
  • Kit Includes How To Video Instructions on DVD and Tools
  • Warranty and Instructional Video Available Only With Kit Purchased from Innovate88

My Nuvi 760 really never worked quite right, even when new. After purchase, I noticed complaints online regarding the battery and its rather poor capacity. What concerned me most was that the battery pack would get VERY hot during charging (which Garmin considers normal) and then would only last fifteen minutes before low battery shut down. My GPS was not the subject of the recent Garmin battery recall, so that was not an option.

I wanted to update the maps because I really do like the GPS, so I had a decision to make: Trash it and get a new one, or attempt to replace the battery, test it and then update the maps if successful.

I went online to Amazon and found this kit for $20.00 or so and thought, well, I'll try it and if it doesn't work, I'm only out $20.00 and I saved the cost of a map update. I ordered the kit and received it in two days, which I consider quite fast.

I opened the kit and found the shim tool, two screwdrivers, a CD and the battery pack itself. I put the CD in my DVD player and watched the installation video. Then I got to work and opened the case. Everything went just like they said in the video. Screws came out, case opened, battery came out, replaced the battery, snapped the case back together and installed the screws. Really easy. But my experience may not be typical, as I used to work on aviation electronics, so my easy may not be your easy.....

I plugged it in and it has worked flawlessly ever since. It no longer gets hot while charging and goes at least five hours before low battery shutdown.

I am very happy with this product and would definitely recommend it to everyone who wants to replace the battery in their Garmin Nuvi. It is very inexpensive, high quality, and you get to keep the tools. At least I think you do. No one has called asking for them back......

Even if you have never worked on electronics before, take a whack at it. Just be patient and follow the instructions. It's only $20.00 and you just might save your favorite GPS.

I was so distraught to have my Garmin GPS constantly going off due to a "low battery". It was relatively new to us, and loved it when we took road trips a few times a year. However when checking with Garmin, they said the battery could not be replaced and we needed to buy a new one. I felt this was ridiculous.

After some research I came upon this Battery Replacement Kit. I was a bit skeptical but after reading the reviews and knowing it had a Guarantee, I ordered the kit. It came very promptly and was installed in just a few minutes after watching the installation CD. As others had said, you do need some double sided tape to hold the battery in place. I had read that when I purchased, so I had some on hand. In replacing the battery, we did not lose any of the previously entered information, such as settings, locations, and favorite places.

I would highly recommend this purchase if your unit is failing. Now I have the tools, and if I need another battery in the future, I will order the battery alone, which is very inexpensive. Also, if you have friends with with a Garmin, you can loan them your tools and they can just order the battery.

BATTERY WAS EASY TO INSTALL, HOWEVER THE KIT DID NOT INCLUDE DOUBLE SIDED TAPE TO SECURE THE BATTERY. THE ORIGINAL TAPE COULD NOT BE REUSED.

This was absolutely what I needed! I received the package several days ahead of the promised delivery date. I think it took me less than 15 minutes to replace my old battery and my Nuvi came out better than new. All tools needed are included in the package (including a piece of double-stick tape) and an instructional video makes sure you know what to do. It honestly couldn't have been easier. My factory GPS battery never worked this well.

Vendor Communications Excellent

Delivery Excellent

Product Excellent!!!

I purchased this product to be used as a trash can for our RV so it could be stowed compactly when not in use. As a trash can, it obviously needs a trash liner and with the liner hanging out over the the top, you cannot zip the trash away but it is still an effective portable container. It would be great for the college student to bring dirty laundry home in.

RoadPro RPAT715 1RoadPro RPAT715 12V Rechargeable Jumpstarter Emergency System with Air Compressor a

RoadPro RPAT715 1RoadPro RPAT715 12V Rechargeable Jumpstarter Emergency System with Air Compressor and Power Inverter
  • Emergency jumpstart with 375 cold cranking Amps
  • 200W inverter output
  • 260PSI air compressor with accessories
  • Built-in DC to AC power inverter with single-grounded AC outlet
  • Built-in work light, pressure reading gauge and voltmeter

I bought this because i needed to fill RV tires at 95 psi. I ordered through Amazon (thankfully). Charged up for 1 1/2 days according to directions. When filling first tire I noticed the psi was not going up. So I tried it out on my car tire at 35 psi. Not only did it not work but it started smoking. It could just be the one I ordered but not wanting to take any chances I just returned it for my money back. In the end I just went to Lowes and bought a Black and Decker air compressor for $50 rated at 150 psi and it works great. It's not cordless but it plugs onto wall outlet or cigarette lighter. If you buy the Black and Decker remember to have an extension cord handy as the wall cable is 1ft long (no joke). Hope this helps the next person!

Product looked great when it arrived but possibly used. Anyway after following the directions to fully charge the battery it seemed to be what I needed. Unfortunately the power inverter (which is the main reason I bought it) did not work at all. Once I tried it the fuse blew immediately. I went to the store to purchase another fuse and the same thing happened. I therefore had to return the product as defective. Thank you Amazon.com for the quick refund. You are the best!

Had to send the first unit back because the switch to send power to the cables for jumpstarting had a flaw. It wouldn't stay in position on it's own. Someone had to force and hold it over in order to maintain a connection. Also, the cable clamps require delicate handling. Positive cable snapped in my hand when going to clamp on to post.

The unit feels sturdy otherwise and the overall features are nice so I took a chance and sent it back for another one. It works like it's suppose to. Just have to be aware that this is not a "mechanic grade" unit. It should be fine for most of us casual users. Adding comment on compressor...it takes quite a while to get up to psi. Maybe 2 minutes to get from 38psi to 50psi. Really seems to be working hard during this time./ july 2011 been using this unit for a year now and compressor does not work anymore. Never really had enough power to do a car tire,just good for bike and sport balls. The jump capabilities is what i bought it for and works well except if the battery is completely dead. Might try a more professional unit.

Never got it to actually jump a car because the battery was always dead. My old 3in1 worked better and the battery lasted. Finally the air pump broke and I throw it out. Got mine at Harbor Freight so I figured it was cheap but I see it on Amazon and thought I should pass on my bad experience. Do not recommend.

UPDATE (Mar 2013):

Okay, so I've had this unit for a couple of years now and I've finally had a real problem with it. It seems the switch for the compressor isn't designed to withstand the heat generated by the current flowing through it to run the compressor. I'd never used the unit to inflate a completely flat large truck tire and after about 20 minutes of continuous running, the compressor began stopping and starting randomly. When I felt the switch it was hot and completely "loose" and didn't seem to be positively controlling the compressor any more. I kept it going and after some more time the switch gave out altogether, rendering the compressor inoperable.

Now, this isn't recommended for everyone, but I ended up prying the panel off the front (with all the switches, gauges, and lights on it), and was able to "jump" the switch with a screwdriver to finish the job. The compressor never gave out, but the screwdriver got pretty hot. I now have a partially destroyed unit (the panel doesn't simply pop out and in I had to pretty much rip it off). In an emergency, it still has value, but clearly the switch was not rated for the current the compressor draws.

Otherwise, it still works for me and the battery still lasts a remarkably long time, even with heavy use. I would still recommend this product, but I would advise anyone using it to avoid using the compressor for more than 5 minutes at a time without a 15 minute "cool down" period so you don't burn up the switch.

Good luck!

~~ Original Review (May 2011) ~~

I was surprised at the other reviews on this product. I might have a different version because mine is red instead of yellow, but otherwise it's exactly the same.

I got my unit for Christmas and since have used it multiple times for jumping, for lighting, and for filling tires. Since the original 48 hour charge, I have jumped my truck three times (yes I need to get a new battery for the truck), and one of the times I had left the headlights on so the truck's battery was completely dead. All three times it worked like a champ. A couple of weeks ago, I noticed a tire was low and used the compressor to fill a tire from 15 psi to 35 psi no problem. Then, I noticed another tire was a little low and filled that as well (maybe from 25 psi to 35 psi). Today while driving, the 15 psi tire went completely flat so I pulled over and found a nail. I removed the nail (which of course let all the air out), put a plug in the tire, and used the compressor to fill the tire all the way from no pressure. It took a little time, but it worked perfectly. I was driving down the road 10 minutes after I stopped.

In all this time I haven't charged the unit at all (after the initial 48 hour charge), and a voltage check shows 13 volts, so it seems to last pretty well.

I have also used the inverter once to test a used wi-fi router I was buying from someone. Obviously the demand from a router isn't going to be very high, so I don't know how it would do with a hair dryer or microwave, but for my test it worked perfectly.

Overall, I've been extremely happy with my unit. It doesn't seem delicate at all except maybe the compressor hose which has a plastic connector. I'm just careful with it.

Perhaps I got the fluke "good" unit, or there is something different about the red version. If I can figure out the difference I'll repost.

Honeywell 1600-6065 1,600 Watt 99cc 4-Stroke OHV Portable Gas Powered Inverter Generator

Honeywell 1600-6065 1,600 Watt 99cc 4-Stroke OHV Portable Gas Powered Inverter GeneratorI bought this unit nearly one year ago and today it still sits in the local generac / honeywell service dealer. Not only did the unit fail after about ten hours (would not start) it only had one real use.

When it failed, the dealer wanted to charge me to even look at it and then to pay for the warranty repairs / parts and have me seek my reimbursement from Generac / Honeywell. I refused and have been on the phone and emails with the factory since early August 2012 (It is now mid-October). Still no generator, no resolution and I am fed up and have requested a full refund.

I am / was a Generac fan with four purchased since 2000. This one was a disgrace to the Generac / Honeywell name. I am equally disappointed by their response for now nearly three months.

My suggestion as an owner I would not buy this unit.

I bought this generator to supplement a 1000watt inverter that I already had (also Honeywell). I time road races, so this is used to power the chip timing system, about 4 laptops, 2 large screen lcd monitors, and a printer. It handles that load well. I have not had any trouble starting it (have probably used it a half dozen times now). It was used in a heavy rain and had no problems. The only reason I held back a star was that it is noisy. I couldn't justify spending twice as much for a quieter Honda. As long as you have enough space, just bring along a 50' extension cord and keep the noise further away cheaper.

update 10/05/2012 Finally found the oil leak was due to the cheap oil sensor. I call Generac waste of time they are not making this part yet. Solution I took the sensor and the generator to a machine shop they solve the problem after looking for an oil plug all over the country it has very unique nut thread measurements. Check oil periodically if there is no leaks no problem no oil sensor is need it. valve noise a was able to lower it adding a 25% of 20W50 truck oil to the recommended SAE 30W oil. It will run much better I am happier now, by the way if happen to you don't forget to check for nuts tighten. And do not use the 12 volt outlet unless for battery charging the voltage is 18v at low running and 24v at hi which will damage any 12v accessory good luck.

I would have left a 0 rating if I could. Just finished the 5 hour break in period and this thing is leaking oil out of the top and bottom of the generator. Measured Db's and at 1 meter from the generator its 81db's, not quiet, not even close to quiet. Honda's are rated at 56db's. Don't waste your money if you want quiet.

  • Designed for safety; reverse polarity, short circuit, open circuit, spark proof, overheat, overcurrent and overcharge
  • Charges batteries 2 times faster; lightweight and compact with 3 year limited warranty

Originally I wanted a portable unit that I could clip and unclip from the boat batteries as needed (which would not be very often as the engines usually provide sufficient charge), but a permanent charger seemed much simpler. Once it's set up, simply plug it in and let it charge the batteries. The unit was very well packed in its box. It appears very water proof. The cords (to the battery bank and for the 125v) were a surprisingly good length. Simply screw the unit onto an appropriate spot on board, screw the leads onto the battery terminals and plug it in. For a neater finish I also cut the plug off the 125v cord and installed a through hull inlet (Marinco 150BBIW Marine On-Board Charger Inlet (15-Amp, 125-Volt, White).

I live on a hill above Mayfield Lake in Washington state. For the last two years, I have been working more and playing less. My boat is moored on the lake and on those rare days when I get to go fishing, I'd often get to the lake and be disappointed to find a dead battery. My dad suggested a solar charging system but he lives in California. Washington doesn't have much sun, and the mountains and trees cast shadows. I did some research and found this product.

Now on my fishing days, I plug this charger in just before I load my boat. This is definitely worth the price. I know for a fact at least two other guys at the marina have installed one of these. It's trouble-free.

I got this mostly to replace my original wall charger, which I somehow misplaced while staying at a friend's even though I try to keep track of it well. I found the car charger quite useful too, since my Blackberry generally is lucky to carry a charge over 1 day even though I've replaced the battery several times and I do charge it each night. I like the option to charge it quick if I am out and want to make a call but find my phone is low, so I can keep the wall charger at home.

Neither are fancy, but get the job done. I can't complain with how cheap they were.

I had this inverter installed in my cargo van and just after a year it started giving me problems. I use it to mainly run an 800 watt microwave, laptop, and GPS. The inverter worked well then began to experience power loss. The unit remains on, but does does not give any continuous power output. Sometimes, the power output cycles on and off while still showing it is on at the switch. It is connected to a seperate high output battery of very good quality. I use it frequently, about 9 months out of the year. After 2 years now, I am still having problems with it. It is becoming frustrating not knowing if it will work or not. I haven't figured out any reason for it to act up. I am now looking for a new inverter. Maybe I just got a lemon. I expected more from a respectable name such as Tripp Lite.

I haven't had a chance to use this much, as I bought it as a backup for a power outage. I tested it using modified jumper cables and hooked up my sump pump. It worked as anticipated, so I am happy at this point. It was reasonably priced and shipped quickly (in time for an anticipated storm).
