Works great! June 11, 2008 No complaints here. No frills or fancy packaging, but I'd rather not pay extra for that. My iPod charged right up (even in Costa Rica!) and I have been 100% satisfied with my purchase.
If you need one of these, this is one. June 8, 2008 At under $2, it is hard to argue with this widget. It works and it's almost free. Why wouldn't you get one? I gave these out as stocking-stuffers last Christmas 'cause it will work with anything that charges from USB -- not just iPods. Cell-phones, whatever.
Works Great for my Shuffle June 2, 2008 Great price (under $5 with shipping). Works just fine for my 2nd generation Shuffle. The red status light saves you from plugging it into a switched outlet that's dead.
Amusing China-isms such as "In Door use only". (Just hollow out an old door and you'll be fine.)
Flaws: The packaging is mis-marked @ 12 volts, 1 AMP, but the unit states 5.0 Volts +/- 5%, 150 mA minumum, 500mA maximum, which I believe is correct. Would give it 6 stars if the plug prongs folded away for compactness.
Cheap and effective May 8, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This will provide 5Vdc up to 1000mA for any USB device that can charge via its usb cable, it works for cameras, MP3 players, lamps, whatever device I have tried it with, assuming its current draw is low enough. How long will it last? For as little as 88c each, who cares, buy a couple, it would cost more to buy a USB socket from a parts supplier.
INSTEN iPod Travel Charger April 30, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I picked up a couple of these chargers through Amazon / Eforcity for less than $2 each (plus shipping). Both of them work great. The label says it is an iPod charger, but it will work with most devices that get their power from a standard USB cable. It just converts 100-240VAC from standard USA or Japan style outlets to 5VDC and accommodates a standard USB-Type A connector. I don't own any iPod products, I got them to use with some other devices that have USB cables but didn't have AC adaptors.
So it works great for charging my TomTom Go 720 GPS unit. It also works for charging a Samsung MP3 player.
The unit I got allows you to fold in the AC Prongs which makes it easier to slip into a pocket or purse. The prongs are not polarized. It is rated for an output of 5.0V at 400mA. It has a green LED that illuminates whenever it is plugged in to a wall. The input is rated for 100-240A, so it should work in US or Japan without an adapter, or in many other countries with a simple plug adapter (adapter is not included).
