Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Belkin Dual USB Car Charger for iPod (Black)
Customer Review: It has a glowing blue indicator light on top
Summary: 4 Stars
You can't see from the product photos or description, but it does have a power indicator light on top. It glows a soft blue from under the plastic when it's plugged in. I originally got this for my car but it's a little on the large side, so I decided instead I'll use it for travel when I'm in a rental car and I want to bring just one charger with me. The quick charge port is for the iPhone, the other port I will use to charge the bluetooth headset. For my own car I also got the Belkin Micro charger which is cute and tiny and out of the way.Customer Review: Great for long car trips!
Summary: 5 Stars
Bought the Belkin Dual USB Car Charger for iPod for use with my iPhone on two 12-hour trips. Though I had to push fairly hard to get the plug into charging hole the first time, it wasn't as tight second-time around. It did exactly what I wanted--charging my iPhone faster than the battery was drained while in use (I have only used the regular-speed charger). Though the cable is slightly stiffer than I might prefer, it's plenty long enough, and while I haven't used it since those car trips, I expect to use it more often come the school year.Customer Review: Does the trick
Summary: 4 Stars
Gave it 4 stars because it IS possible to knock it off it's contacts, meaning that when you have it seated in the cigarette lighter if you move it around too much it could lose power, but this is not easy to do, and besides that it seems to be doing it's job well. I'm not sure about the 'Quick Charge' port because when my Samsung Epic4g is plugged in I'm running EVERYTHING, Bluetooth audio, 4G, GPS, so it doesn't charge quickly, but then again most other chargers were only keeping it at the same level while using all that juice.Customer Review: Works with 2 iPhone 3GS at the same time
Summary: 5 Stars
Both myself and my wife has an iPhone 3GS so we wanted a product that can charge both at the same time. We were a little hesitant with this product since there was little mention of 3GS and some chargers that works with the 3G won't work with the 3GS. But we tried it this past weekend and it worked like a champ. Use the thinner USB cable/plug that came with your iPhone though to make the plugging in easier. But otherwise, I had our iPhones plugged in for many hours to see if it'd overcharge but everything worked as it should.Customer Review: Beware Garmin users
Summary: 3 Stars
A description of this product I found elsewhere touted charging your iPod/iPhone and powering your GPS at the same time. I bought this to charge my iPhone and power my Garmin Nuvi 200. Sadly, my Garmin thinks it's connected to a computer when I plug it into this adapter, and it goes into that mode (i.e. useless for navigation). I plan on calling Belkin to see if they have any recommendations. Otherwise, this is now only a relatively expensive, basic, yet functional, iPhone charger, for me.
