Customer Review: Great Product
Summary: 5 Stars
I read both positive and negative reviews and decided to take a chance. We took it on a LONG car trip this summer and it worked flawlessly the whole trip for our COBY Portable DVD Player. I didn't have any issues with a fuse shorting out. I recommend that if you get this product, check your DVD player (or other electronic device you want to use) on the specific DC voltage it requires and then choose the appropriate setting on your car adapter. If you randomly choose a setting, it will blow a fuse. My DVD player had a voltage requirement listed directly above the power input, but it should also say on the fine print on the back of just about any product - look for "DC In" followed by 9V for example.Customer Review: Dead on arrival

I needed this product to replace the car charger for our travel DVD Player. I purchased it just in time to have it shipped prior to a long road trip with my kids. When it came, it was very flimsy and cheap. I tried it out and it didn't work. I was a little disappointed but I read what a piece of crap it was on other reviews so I really wasn't all that surprised. I had to purchase one from a local store which cost me a lot more.
Amazon was great about the return though, I can't say enough good things about working with amazon. As for this product, you get what you pay for. If you get it and it works, cool, but I would keep looking.
Customer Review: Highly Disappointed

We bought this to use with the Coby portable DVD player for a long car trip - Did not work at all. The first time we plugged it in the DVD player would not turn on. We tested the DVD player by plugging it into the wall and it worked fine.
We tried the car adapter again and it worked, but for 10 minutes before the DVD player shut off itself. The car adapter also got really hot really quick.
We let the car adapter cool off and then tried the DVD player again; it worked for about 5 minutes. I would NOT recommend this product - We bought it because there were so many other positive reviews.
Customer Review: Great Item!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Very nice item!!! Tried several other different brands before finding and ordering this one, and lets just say I am glad I had warranty coverage on my Coby Kyros Internet Tablet because the "other" brands were crap!One brand straight up fried my battery and it WAS on the "correct" settings when this happened. Needless to say they cost 3X the amount of this Coby brand one!! Works Great, fast shipping, has the CORRECT voltage and polarity settings for the Coby Kyros 7005 and the 7015 which is the one I purchased this item for. I would recommend this product to anyone!!
Customer Review: DC Power Cord By Coby
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this item for a DVD Player for my car. It was advertised to have various tips so it would fit most any component and also had voltage settings. Some of the reviews talk about blowing fuses and would not work. Well the reason for the problems is the tip has to be installed properly. If it is installed backward it creates a direct ground. That blows a fuse. The center pin has to be positive and the outside has to be negative. It is not marked so I used a volt meter to assure which was which. It works great.
