It has the straight cord just like the picture, not a coiled cord as description states. Works great.
No more burning through sets of batteries. Took longer to get this on expedited shipping than something else coming standard shipping. The charger itself is great quality, it looks pretty durable and works perfectly. I have it wired to a dirt bike, and powers my Rhino 120 even with changes in voltage due to engine RPM. I'd definitely buy another one if I needed it for something else.
No worry about batteries. I really love my Garmin Rino 120 GPS receiver, the only downside is it tends to eat batteries fairly quickly. Well with the adapter, all the time I am in my truck I keep it plugged in, viola. The cord on this unit seems very robust and is extra long, so its not a problem to put your GPS receiver where you want and not have to worry about the power cord not being long enough. I would ***highly*** recommend that you get the window mount for your Rino 120 and use it with the DC power cord, it makes for a great team and you will never lose your Satellite signal from placing your GPS receiver in a cup holder (which is I what I used to do before buying the window mount kit)
I don't know why amazon has this listed for the Rino 5xx series radios - they require more power and use a lithium ion recharable pack to get it. This adapter is for the 1xx series radios designed around disposable batteries. YOU NEED A DIFFERENT ADAPTER FOR THE 5XX SERIES - THIS IS A WASTE OF MONEY FOR THOSE RADIOS. Amazon should know better.
It was listed along the Garmin unit as the correct one for the unit. The item is fine. It was the wrong DC adaptor for the Garmin unit purchased. It was for another Garmin line of products. I'm sure it worked well on the correct product.
