Rating  - Way over priced
This is a convenient cable to have, but not worth $35. You can get a compatible cable made by Gilsson Technologies selling currently on Amazon for $14.75.... Garmin compatible PC Interface Cable with Cigarette Lighter Power Adapter for eTrex Mariner Legend Vista Legend Venture, eMap, Geko GPS (Vista, Legend, etc.)
Rating  - GREAT
Purchased this cable for my Garmin Vista. Use this cable in my vehicle connected to my laptop and 12volt power outlet. Never had a problem with this cable. Well made.
Rating  - Great quality product for a basic unit
Garmin continues to amaze me with their technology. The Etrex is one of the most basic GPS units that you can buy (also the cheapest). Without the cable, the Etrex is wonderful for nearly all GPS needs that arise. But with this cable, the Etrex is extremly powerful! With free software on the internet, you can send/receive information quickly from your computer and GPS.
The power option on this cable is also very convenient for long trips. I use my GPS in my vehicle quite a bit, and it is very handy knowing that when you get out of the vehicle, the disposable batteries within the eTrex have not been used. A dead GPS is worth absolutely nothing!
If you are just getting started into geocaching or other types of basic navigation, the eTrex and this cable is a very satisfying combination. The only reason that I gave it 4 stars is that the connector pin that attaches to the GPS tends to slip out with a minimum amount of force (not the cables fault). Depending on how you look at it, this is also a convenience if you need to disconnect the cable quickly.
