Garmin 010-02019-00 Zumo 396 LMT-S, Motorcyle GPS

Q: Can i charge the gps purely by using the usb cable? i don't want to go through the hassle of getting the provided charger connected to the actual bat.

The answers to your question aren’t really correct. Yes it obviously can be charged with a USB cable, that’s why they provided one. I however know what your asking and the answer is NO! The GPS when in its cradle blocks (stupidly) the female port in which the USB cable plugs into such that there is no way to charge it using the USB cable while it’s in its cradle. Why they didn’t put the the female on the side of the gps is beyond me but perhaps it’s to better keep water out? I have a 12v cigarette type port near my dash that I plug a USB adapter into. They sell a male USB to alligator clips I bought. The cable is really long so to keep things tidy and to have a more hardwired connection I just cut the wires to desired length and joined them and put electrical tape around it. I think thee is a sheath u can buy u can heat up to join the wires to make it even cleaner if u wanted. Much better than trying to run the wires all the way to the battery considering most new bike have a 12v near the dash.

Q: Will this unit charge thru my bike’s usb port? other garmin units will not charge this way or from an aux battery.

Yes you can charge by USB if you want. I initially set the unit up in my truck during testing. See my YouTube review for more info. Black Swan Odysseys, Garmin 396

Q: Will this "sync" with my Sena headset on my helmet?

I have a Sena 10S and it works. I can't speak for any other models. Garmin's website mentions that, for the Zumo 395, the Sena 20S and the SMH10 works, if that helps any. I couldn't find anything specifically about which headsets work with the 396 on Garmin's website.

Q: Where exactly does the power chord connect physically to the unit? Side or back? Or does it have to sit on a cradle to charge?

The power cord connects to the back of the zumo 396. More information about mounting and the power connection can be found by visiting: https://www8.garmin.com/manuals/webhelp/zumo396/EN-US/GUID-722C48BD-8626-490F-B53B-5A1226452999.html.
