Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Lenmar ACUSB4 AC Travel Adapter for up to 4 USB Powered Devices (Black)
Customer Review: Does not charge
Summary: 1 Stars
I just got this a day before a weekend trip. I used my phones and video camera during the day and figured this would be a good time to test out the charger. I plugged in the Charger and a yellow light came on, so far so good. Then I plugged in my "Flip Share". An hour later and it still had not charged; looked like if anything it went down a little. I figured maybe it was just really slow and left it plugged in overnight. Next morning the "Flip Share" was totally drained. Luckily a friend brought a laptop along so I plugged it in there and charged it up in an hour or two.
Perhaps I just got a bad charger, but I cannot recommend this to anyone.

I am a consultant and thought this adaptor would be a good idea since I am always carrying around chargers and USB cables for my various electronics; however I have only been using this adapter since October and it is already broken! Something on the inside is shaking and since it can't be opened, I have no way of fixing it, so it is going back! It is also annoying to note that even though you can plug in up to 4 devices, it does not actually charge all 4 at the same time. It is a great idea, but they really need to work on the concept a little more, it also wouldn't hurt to have a clip on the side to hold the cables while attached.Customer Review: Good idea, bad execution

I bought this charger for traveling because I liked the idea of having enough juice and ports to simultaneously charge several USB devices. However, the pin adapter for different countries, once inserted, is hard to remove when switching to another pin adapter (for another country). I am afraid that I may break the plastic material when changing the pin adapters.
Also, when using the round two pin (European) pins, the charger is in the horizontal position and its weight tends to rotate it downwards and lose electrical contact. I had to use something to prop it up when in use. I won't recommend this charger.
Customer Review: Excellent Product!

This is an excellent product. My Kodak digital camera and Sony Walkman MP3 player unfortunately only charge via USB connection. I didn't want to bring my laptop with me on my trip to Europe though, so I needed some way to charge them using a wall outlet. I brought the Lenmar adapter with me to London, Paris and Amsterdam and just changed the adapter to use the appropriate outlet type for each country. It worked wonderfully. It charged my Blackberry tour, my MP3 player and digital camera with no problems. I'm so glad I found this product; it helped relieve some of the stress of travel!Customer Review: Works great!

I bought the Lenmar travel adapter to charge my iphone 3gs and my wife's iphone 3g (including two lithium battery extender packs from monoprice) during our trip to Italy and Spain.
The product works great, the different connector heads can be released by a button on the front side, with the new connector easiliy snapping in. On the back is a little amber LED for when the unit is powered.
I would highly recommend this unit for any person who has multiple usb devices to charge. I am still using this device at home to charge the two iphones at the same time.
