Supply for NR + connect a GPS

[bgiesecke]

Hi,
I want to use my Clie together with an GPS system in my car. To use this over several hours I need to charge the NR & the GPS at the same time. But I can connect either the charger cable or the GPS cable to the Clie? Does anybody know how I can combine these two connectors? Maybe I can use the charging voltage from the GPS (3V) for the Clie too?

Thanks for your answers in advance.

The Clie needs a charging voltage of 5,2 Volts. So you need to
check your GPS Module if there´s a chance to supply the same
voltage. If that´s possible, mail me, and I will try to help you.
As I´m from Germany too, you can mail in German.

Noh

NetSupply has several options that power both PDA and GPS from Auto (you did not say which GPS, here is eTrex example):
Garmin eTrex and Sony NR-70 (http://thesupplynet.com/searchresults.cfm?mySearch=product&prodName=211)

PC-Mobile has some solutions too, they have more GPS options, but they do require more cables to power both units from Auto or battery pack:

Just realized the original thread is a year old, but perhaps someone can use the info. ;)
