Phoebus_810
Can anybody tell me anything about the Varcom 2G calculator/GPS. I am

setting to m/km setting yourself?

12 Volt DC input Battery Charger by
Michael I Green
My dual input ( 12 VDC & 115 VAC) battery charger died on me last
summer. Does anyone know of a replacement? I would be satisfied with
