I ordered two of these, one for myself and the other for my father. I also installed both of them an our bikes and they work perfectly.
As far as installation goes, I would recommend using a fuse tap (such as an add-a-circuit) from and auto parts store so that the converter box in the line doesn't drain the battery if you don't ride for a while. You may find, however that your fuse circuit is still hot because you may have relays on your fuse box, in that case, I would recommend installing a switch with the hot wire running into the fuse tap so that all you need to do is flip the switch off and the converter box will not use up your battery.
I don't think the converter box uses up that much power, but if it is directly connected to your battery (or you have the fuse tap in a hot circuit ((by hot circuit, I mean that it is getting power even with the ignition off)) ), the converter box IS using power constantly, so that is why i recommend using a switch or a fuse tap to a switched circuit (meaning a circuit that is not receiving power when the ignition is off).
make sure you ground everything you install, or it won't work, and make sure every new line has a fuse (why i recommend the fuse tap).
If you install a switch, you will have to ground the switch as well as the converter box, or the setup will not work.
If you have any question for motorcycle install, feel free to ask... I know how difficult it can be to find answers to these questions, but fortunately i found a setup that worked for me and my dad.

The mini USB connector is somewhat smaller than the cig. lighter connector USB standard with the garmin GPS. The L shape does not allow for direct connect through the access hole of some RAM mounts sold by Amazon for motorcycle hookup. This is a problem, I'm not quite show how I'm going to resolve.

Have a Navigon 7200T, which does not have an official hard-wire option. After scouring the net for solutions, I came up with the Gilsson gusb5v-b. Amperage and connection matched - had a stero shop do the install - works great! No problems and the dashboard looks a lot cleaner than it did with a 12v coiled cord going to my power port. Shipping and delivery was favorable.
Thankls a lot - service and product A+

Maybe I'm missing something but this unit will not power my nuvi 760 or my daughters. I tried two to eliminate the issue of a bad GPS. The GPS unit just goes into mass storage mode when ever the power supply is connected to the USB port. If anyone knows what I need to do to get it to work on a nuvi 760 please drop me a line at dsprague at zoominternet dot net. I did enter the hidden menu by touching the battery icon for several second then plugged in the power supply but the gps still reverts back to mass storage mode when it is restarted. Also the green light on the power supply never illuminates but since there were no instructions included I'm not sure if it is supposed to be on whenever power is supplied or when the GPS is drawing power. The unit was wired directly to a 12 volt battery to test and eliminate any lack of power or ground supply and still no go.
