Works like a charm - the PDA now successfully powers the GPS for about
2 hours and 20 minutes on a full charge. A flip of the swich, and the
PDA and GPS is powered by the cigarette lighter again, and the PDA
hapilly charges itself.
Problem solved!
Wouldn't a single diode been cheaper and easier or were you afraid of
the voltage drop across it?
