Hi Fritz,
Your Garmin GPS requires a 12V input, while the Energizer Ultimate Lithium power bank provides 5V via USB ports (even with Power Delivery, it only adjusts up to 9V or 12V for certain USB-C devices, not for 12V DC barrel connectors). This is why it won’t charge your GPS directly. You would need a step-up adapter or a dedicated 12V car charger for compatibility.
