2 out of 5 stars wokred as advertised for 1 day   August 30, 2008
SteaveJ
I Bought mine at walmart for a measly 10 bucks and used it for one day before the usb stopped working on it. I was only using a FM transmitter and charging a blackberry so i dunno what happened. I exchanged it for another one and it worked fine for the drive home. From here on is anyones guess. Wagon makes a similar Twin USB/DC Socket thats sold by amazon so that might be my next step if and when this one breaks.


1 out of 5 stars Faulty Unit   August 2, 2008
S. Squires (Toronto, Canada)
I bought this unit for a driving vacation, and the entire unit stopped working after a few minutes. It may have been the fuse in the power outlet adapter, but I only had a GPS and an iPhone plugged in it.

Foolishly, I bought another one a few hundred miles away, hoping I had bought a lemon and that the product was probably good. Unfortunately, the USB died on this unit after a couple of hours.
I ended up using a larger more expensive power adapter with a Griffin double-USB powerblock. It worked fine except for the space it took up.

Would someone please make a product along these lines, that works well for people like me who have GPS, iPhones and other devices that need to be charged.
The product should also be solid, and not loosely rattle around on its hinges like this device. The product would ideally also have 2 USB ports and be able to charge iPods/iPhones/digital cameras without blowing a fuse.





2 out of 5 stars Very good vendor, but not so good product   April 26, 2008

Was not very happy with the connector eventhough the price was rather low. Not very well made. Ended up giving it away and bought something else. Sorry!

Worst! Product! Ever! This is a very poor quality design. When it is plugged into the socket, any little bump or jolt causes it to lose power. No matter what angle it is set in, it is physically impossible not to jiggle it. I drive a stick and every time I shift gears, the shifter knocks it out of kilter. Drives me crazy (those who know me say that it's a short trip) :-)

On the upside, the USB port worked and is a cool gadget. It powered my iBook nicely on a recent trip. Too bad the rest of it was such a piece of junk.

This is not the adapter you're looking for, move along.....



1 out of 5 stars Disappointed   March 21, 2008
W. Slagle (Richmond, VA USA)
It wouldn't stay securely in the 12v outlet of my 02 Altima and the usb power outlet on the side quit working after less than 6 months
