Hi all
Does anybody know of a GPS/Satnav that will run on 6volts.
My friend and I intend to ride our old motorbikes down to Spain in September.

Thanks Bob.

Specifically answering your question; you could connect the usb 5V line to the bike’s 6V battery, however with the battery being charged by the bike’s engine, the voltage is likely to be closer to 7V. 7V supplied to a 5V usb connected device may very well damage the expensive electronics (not worth the risk).
Have you thought of using a solar USB charger?
