I have seen others that wanted switched power, tie in to their headlight or taillight as long as it meets the voltage and amp requirement.

Well congrats you got one issue solved. As far as it going to battery I have not experienced that. I would connect directly to your battery and see if you get the same result.

If it works directly from the battery and not from your source I am at a loss. Unless the hot and negative are reversed. IDK

So have you checked the voltage at your source you are trying to use. The Garmin requires a minimum of 10.3 volts to the converter. If there is less it may not be enough. I measured the voltage on mine at the 2 pins on the mount and got 5.27 volts.The output of the converter is 4.8 to 5.5 volts. So ...

I connect all accessories thru a FuzeBlock, https://www.fuzeblocks.com, this is whether they are switched or unswitched. It just keeps all wiring clean plus all things are fused at one location. It is also very easy to change from switched to unswitched by changing the fuse position. Another advanta...
