tomtom in home charger

[FREESPIRIT333]

Does anyone know if you can get an in home charger for my tomtom 3rd edition from anyone other than tomtom site

Any ideas would be appreciated

Any Mini USB mains powered charger will work with the device, look for a mobile phone that uses the same connector, I have quite a collection of these chargers at home, if the plug fits the socket simply use it - Mike

Thank you for reply
I will have to scout round for one as my mains phone charger is a flat connection and so is my sons and husbands

I have been told you canget them off e bay but not sure if its the right connection?

Look for "5 pin mini USB".
They SHOULD all be the same, but apparently Motorola phones use a non-standard connection, so don't use a charger intended for those.

Would suggest trying Maplins, they certainly do this one:

but that one has normal size USB sockets so you would need to use a normal to mini USB cable (such as the one that comes with the TomTom) as well.

or this one:

has the right plug, but is more expensive.

Thank you very much for your help

I will go to my local Maplins and pick one up
