I recently had a g3 built into a set of Hed C2 rims for my CX bike.
Was working great until today when it just stopped reading power for 1 solid hour.
I did a google search when I got home, and discovered that this is perhaps a firmware issue that causes the battery to drain prematurely?
I'd love to update my firmware but the G3 wasn't shipped with a usb cable.
Is this just a standard cable?
Can I purchase one from any electronics store?
All you need is PowerAgent and a standard USB to mini USB cable...these are common for cell phones and the same type used for Garmins. I just tried this to make sure my G3 firmware was updated. Very easy.
I tried and the garmin cable doesn't fit the G3 usb port.
I have an iphone so no luck there.
I'm guessing you actually used a cell phone cable?
Garmin and Ipod both don't use mini USB.
A samsung, blackberry or newer nokia cable should work fine. You may also want to check your portable hard drive as some of these use mini usb.
If not you can buy a mini usb cable for pretty cheap at any computer store.
