Is sat charging on my desk

.
donât get lost now.
âDeskâ 
'Puter desk 
. Donât work Fridays. Start Sunday 
.
Ah puter desk, thought posh gits got an office for a minute.
Be interested to hear how this Tom Tom goes.
When I was a kid, wasnât Tom Tom a program on telly ?
It says 12/24v on the ciggie lighter plug. It works ok in the car. If I plug it into a 24v stem Sunday and it fries it then I wonât be impressed. First impressions in the car are itâs a fantastic bit of kit but wonât totally replace the truckers atlas (which Iâve just had laminated and put in a loose leaf folder). Might just get a 24v - 12v dropper from Maplins to play safe. It is ÂŁ429.99 worth of kit (or it will be by the time I get the tax back on it ).
Why do you think Iâm posh DAFMAD? I donât dress like all the time you know .
Lib, from the Tom Tom website in the section where it tells you what comes in the box with the machine.
A DC power lead, with 12-24V cigarette lighter adapter which can also be used in trucks. This is the normal way of providing power to TomTom GO when itâs in your vehicle.
Looks to me like you will be quite safe to use it in the truuck without a dropper.

I donât know about your Tom Tom, but my OEM phone charger is a 12/24v job. The cheaper ones which you usualy get from markets and the like are the ones which tend to blow up or fry your gear.
If yours came with the sat-nav and is included in the original kit, it would be covered by any warranty. If it fryâs your Tom Tom , you would then get a free replacement.

A reply springs to mind, but I couldnât repeat it in polite society. The mods wouldnât let me. The rockers might though . If it fries it on Sunday, Iâll come up to Luton again and take you to task Neil .

I can find Luton allright, J11 of the M1. Itâs just finding your way through the place - mind that bridge .
Junction 11? Good thatâll keep you well away from me as I live a couple of minutes from junction 10.
set it for somewhere proper awkward and obscure and marvel at its ability to get you there, albeit ignoring low bridges etc.
TBH Iâd have spent the extra ÂŁ30 and got a PDA based system for the extra flexibility and functions it affords.
