Overview

The Garmin 010-11029-01 is a charging clip that lets compatible Forerunner watches charge from a computer through a USB connection.

It works by clipping onto the watch to make contact at the charging points, then running to your computer with a USB cable. It is a simple spare to keep at the nav station, in a gear bag, or anywhere you top up devices between outings.

Compatible with Forerunner 405, Forerunner 405CX, Forerunner 410, Forerunner 310XT, and Forerunner 910XT.

Key features

• Charging clip made for Forerunner 405, 405CX, 410, 310XT, and 910XT
• Clip-on connection that holds the watch in place while it charges
• Uses a USB connection to a computer for charging
• Useful as a replacement clip when the original is lost or worn
• Small accessory that is easy to stow in a dry drawer, electronics pouch, or onboard kit

Installation and setup

Align the clip with the back of the watch so the contacts line up, then press until it seats evenly. If it does not sit flat, remove it and realign rather than forcing it.

Connect the clip to your computer using a USB cable, then allow the watch to charge. On a boat, keep the connection point out of spray and away from wet hands, and let the watch dry before charging after deck work or heavy weather.

Compatibility and fit

This clip is specific to the Forerunner models listed in the Overview. It will not latch correctly on other Garmin wearables that use a different contact layout or case shape.

If you are unsure which Forerunner you have, confirm the model on the watch before ordering so the clip mates cleanly with the charging contacts.

Maintenance and care

Keep the contact area clean so charging stays consistent. If the clip is exposed to salt air or spray, wipe it down and make sure everything is dry before connecting to any USB power.

Store it where the clip arms are not being crushed by heavy gear, and avoid leaving it connected in a spot where vibration can tug on the cable.
