Customer Review: You get what you pay for
Summary: 1 Stars
I was excited to see a cheap alternative to an Apple branded product and decided to take a chance. My workday exceeds my ipod's battery life so I need a way to charge it during the day. I plugged it in at lunch time and the LED on the charger lit up, and the battery indicator on my ipod showed that it was charging. Then, within 30 seconds, it stopped working. The LED on the plug is the only thing that works. I paid $.01 for this, then nearly $3.00 for shipping! Never again! I should have read reviews before making this purchase seeing that it has destroyed some people's ipods! I guess that I was lucky to have only wasted a little bit of money. If it were possible to give a rating of less than 1 star, I would, I can't stand to get ripped off.Customer Review: It actually works!
Summary: 4 Stars
I didn't think this charger was going to work because of the extremely low price. But Belkin brand was the alternative and I have had terrible experience with their products. I wanted a DLO brand, and can't remember why I didn't get one...maybe they didn't have it at Amazon?? Anyway, this was perfect to take on a short trip, it did the job and was certainly compact enough to fit in a duffle bag. I would have given 5 stars but the durability of the product concerns me since I haven't had it long and only used it once. It may be deserving of the 5 stars but since I can't say for sure, it gets a 4. And besides, because it was so inexpensive I bought a backup in case it does have a short life! All in all, great deal.Customer Review: It works just fine for me and my Nano G4 16GB
Summary: 5 Stars
What a bargain! It costs more in shipping, a couple of bucks, than the actual price but worth it to me. If you take care of your equipment and don't treat it like trash, it won't become trash. I just purchased an Ipod Nano G4 16 GB and this charger works just fine on it. Anyone who has had problems could have gotten a lemon (Hey, it's probably made in China!) or it was damaged in shipping or it received rough treatment. So, take a chance if you have a Nano G4. I do know it is different from the G1,2,3 as far as charging on older speaker systems, clock radios, etc. So maybe this charger is good only for the G4.Customer Review: Seems sturdy, but does NOT work on my iPhone
Summary: 2 Stars
It clearly stated on the product details that this charger works with iPhone. Unfortunately, I plugged it in and that oh so friendly message came up saying that the accessory was not compatible. Here's the thing though, someone else's iphone worked on the charger (his is older purchased in December), but mine is new and had the message pop up instantly. This happened with my other iPod related accessories that I had for my old nano and iPod...they just don't work on the iPhone. PLEASE BEWARE...it says one thing on the website, but I can attest to the fact that it is not iPhone friendly on the new phones.Customer Review: This charger destroyed my Ipod

After reading numerous reviews on this charger, I decided to give it a try. After the second time using it to charge My recently purchased, refurbished Ipod Click wheel, 3rd gen, I received an Error message. I called Apple and and based on the error message they determined the battery was not accepting a charge. The first thing they asked me after determining it was the battery, was, what kind of charger was I using. They told me that these chargers are known to damage the charging circuitry on the Ipod. After being repaired by Apple, and purchasing a brand name charger, I havc had no further problems.
