Customer Review: Great little adapter!
Summary: 5 Stars
This one totally saved me on my last driving vacation with the family (wife and 3 kids). I had gotten the COBY portable DVD player using some credit card points, but it didn't have a car adapter. I ordered this one, it arrived before vacation, and it helped cut down on the "Are we there yet's" by at least 87.4%. Good thing to have if you travel and need to power anything in the car.Customer Review: It got hot and melted.
Summary: 1 Stars
We noticed right away that the switch got very hot when we used it for the first time a few weeks ago. My husband just took it out and noticed that the switch part actually melted. To those commenting that it drains the battery, when you connect it to the adapter, there is a positive and negative, like a battery, so if you attach it wrong, it will drain instead of charge the battery.Customer Review: Does just what it's supposed too
Summary: 5 Stars
I don't understand the criticisms. The switch for different voltages clicks from one position to the next (not too hard, not too easy). The fuse is easy to change if you should need to. It reduces the voltage just as it is supposed to. It is very reasonably priced (Amazon's price is 1/4 what my local Radio Shack wanted for this) What more could you ask for?? I'm happy with it.Customer Review: great product!

i bought this for the portable dvd machine for the car(I have the Disney's dvd machine). it works and fits great! i was looking for this everywhere in stores like office depot, best buy,...and none of them had what i needed. similar items were about $20-25. the good thing abt this product is that you can choose the voltahe too. I needed a 12V and I got it. :)Customer Review: burns instead of charges
Summary: 1 Stars
Unfortunately, this converter burns rather than charges the dvd. the coby dvd that links you to this product doesn't charge from this converter at all. after a while, the converter heats up and releases burning plastic odors. although it did charge a different device (electric razor), it is unusable for the specific DVD.
