User Ratings and Reviews

2 Stars Specs not as advertised
I actually got this as a backup for my Kindle charger. According to the specs shown on the the adapter, it is 1000 MAH which is enough to power the kindle 2. It doesn’t. I gave the product 2 stars because it is not advertised as a kindle charger, but it does not have the output it says it does either.

5 Stars Just what I needed
It worked with my blackberry curve and LG VU CU920 data cables. Now I won’t panic if I forget the wall chargers to my phones. This is a lifesaver. Worked right out of the box (or bag…lol).

4 Stars Great little adapter
I would give it 5 stars because it has worked great for months since I have been using it. I connect the USB data cable for my blackberry to charge at work. This way I don’t need to carry the charger that comes with the phone and the data cable for times when I need to charge it in the car. I always carry the same cable and switch the adapter.

The only issue I have is with the quality of the adapter. It feels light and cheap. But that’s why the price is so good I guess.

Otherwise, no complaints!

3 Stars Not another AC to USB adapter
Unlike my other AC to USB adapters it will not charge a Razr V3.

I did not test it with any of their indicated devices.

5 Stars Great buy
My Sansa MP3 player gets recharged through my computer so if I am away from home and do not have a computer available, I could not charge it. This USB Travel Charger works perfectly with my MP3’s USB cable. I now use it all the time at home and I save money on electricity from not turning on my computer just to charge.

The best thing about this adapter is that it does not leave my MP3 player’s light on while charging. The light on my MP3 player stayed on while charging with my PC which is bad for the internal battery life. Also, stays on the last song that you listened to when removed. Very happy with this adapter and highly recommended it.

2 Stars Charges my Zune, but the line noise….
This thing works fine for charging my zune, but if I’m playing music while getting power from this, it puts a lot of noise into the signal. Enough noise to make me throw this thing away. If all you need it for is USB power without playing music, it’ll work fine.

5 Stars Universal car charger adapter
Love this universal USB charger! I highly recommend it! Is great for the kids Nintendo DS games to charge in the car!

1 Star unreliable and extremely poor quality, completely worthless
I bought two of these, both fell apart (literally) within several weeks of infrequent use. Even when they worked, they never worked reliably and required connstant twisting and turning and pushing to get a connection. The whole thing looked like they were put together by a child (no, I’m just talking figuratively and not implying what you think I’m implying about Chinese labor, which is a whole different issue). A gentle squeeze, the thing goes squeaky and shaky. Unlike most other car adapters, this one doesn’t have a snugly fit into the cigarette lighter. It is just so wobbly everywhere. Avoid such low quality products to keep your life sane.

An update: I subsequently purchased a few Universal Mini USB Car Charger Adapters offered by Eforcity (search Amazon or eBay). What a difference. The Universal Mini USB Car Charger Adapters is exactly what this product should be made alike. Solid, compact, and reliable. Both are inexpensive Chinese made products, but one is total junk and other a gem.

5 Stars Great value
Works perfectly, great price. You can spend up to $25 for this exact same thing. I advise buying this one–save $$ and works fine for recharging my Clip MP3 player on the go.

4 Stars Ok but not very powerful
I have 2 of those. It usually does the job if you need to recharge a device through USB. However, while it charges my iPod nano correctly, it does not deliver enough power for my iPod classic. But for the price, it’s a bargain.
