SwanScout 505GM - Oplaadstandaard voor Garmin-horloges

I love this charger stand. It powers my Garmin watch faster than the original power cable my watch came with. I have a protective case on the watch itself and i have to remove the backing in order to get the charger port to connect to my watch but other than that - this is a wonderful stand. It is stylish and very minimalistic. No lights, nothing to keep you up at night. It is the perfect companion for my watch. The platform that it has at the top of the unit tilts to one side/angle to support viewing if desired/needed. The unit is plastic and has anti-slide feet on the bottom with the power port (female USB-C) on the side . The power cable for the unit is a male USB-C on both sides. So you will need to ensure that you have a block/brick or connector for that. Worth the money, for sure.

This charging stand works great with my Garmin Forerunner 965. The stand charges my watch and the watch syncs while it is on the stand. The stand gets power from any USB-C cable, but he stand does not transfer any data through the USB-C cable. The mounting plate can be rotated 180 degrees and the angle can be changed from horizontal to about 45 degrees froward. The stand doesn't take up much space and looks great on my desk.

This charger has impressive compatibility across multiple Garmin series which works flawlessly with Forerunner, Vivoactive, Instinct and Tactix models as advertised. Sturdy build quality with a weighted base that doesn't tip over easily. The angled design makes it easy to see watch notifications while charging. Cable management keeps things tidy and the stand holds watches securely without scratching. It's perfect for those who want their watch easily visible while charging rather than lying flat. Reasonably priced for what it delivers.

I have never been happy with the Garmin charging cables for my watches. They don't allow the watch to sit flat on a desk or table, which might cause the cable to become disconnected. If I flip the watch over to be face-down, I can't see the screen to know how far charging has progressed. If I flip it over to look, the cable might come out.

This charger stand solves both problems! I can view the charging progress without having to touch it, plus the hockey puck design give the watch a flat surface for it to rest on. It's adjustable, too, so I can rotate the angle to view the screen more easily.

Some Garmin watches have the charging port on the left side, and some on the right (I have both types), and the round puck can be rotated to place the charging plug to either side. It rotates smoothly, but clicks into place when the plug is on the left, right, and also center (bottom). They thought of everything!

The packaging is very nice, and it includes a USB-C to USB-C cable and very complete instruction manual.

I'm so glad I got it!

I have the Garmin Forerunner 245, and it seems like the regular charger cables always get knocked loose so easily. I was excited to see this charging stand! It seems much more secure, and I like that it also has a light indicator to show you that it’s charging. Now I hopefully won’t have any more early morning realizations that my watch didn’t charge overnight! I think I’ll use a 3m command sticker to attach it to my nightstand so nobody moves it and it doesn’t disappear like the rest of my chargers!
