Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Macally PowerLink Emergency Battery Pack with 2 GB Pen Drive for iPod and iPhone (Black)

Customer Review: Equally poor product and customer service
Summary: 1 Stars

I received my first PowerLink and it lost my data on the flash drive. After storing a full 2GB's worth of important information I could keep on the go, the drive would suddenly go corrupt. Mac OS X's Disk Utility could only repartition it, and on the Windows side, it says it wasn't formatted. In addition, one of the LED lights went out.

After much unnecessary convincing to Macally that I had a bad product with repeated information in my emails (apparently they do not seem to read previous threads accumulating in the same email), I was finally able to send it back and they shipped me a brand new one (which was delayed enough for me to ask them for tracking).

The warranty replacement did the same with the data after a few weeks, and the internal battery wouldn't even give my iPhone a 1% boost. I have put up a video review on YouTube (you can search for Macally PowerLink Quick Overview).

I'm still waiting for an RMA for the second unit, with no response for two months and counting.

Description of Macally PowerLink Emergency Battery Pack with 2 GB Pen Drive for iPod and iPhone (Black)

Now your iPod or iPhone can get extra power when you're away from home. This PowerLink 3-in-1 Battery Pack/Data Sync/Flash Drive works on three levels: it gives your iPod or iPhone emergency power, it syncs the device with your computer, and you can also use it as a flash drive. Power status/Data activity LED Battery level indicator Works with iPhone and iPod with 30-pin Dock Connector Package contents - Includes PowerLink, USB extension cable and user guide
The new PowerLink USB Adapter for iPhone is a convenient three-in-one device that most any iPhone or iPod user would find handy. The PowerLink combines a USB memory stick for storing files, a 30-pin cable for syncing your iPhone/iPod, and a charger with a built-in rechargeable battery.

Get Extra Power Away from Home
Take PowerLink with you for emergency power for your iPhone or iPod with 30-pin dock connector. It's easy to use: Just connect PowerLink to your iPhone/iPod, and switch on PowerLink's power. PowerLink boasts a 270mAh Lithium-Ion battery that provides 500mA powering current to the iPhone or iPod. That's equal to about 25 minutes of talk time on an iPhone. (Note: The PowerLink does not actually charge the iPhone or iPod; it powers the devices as an external battery pack.)

When it's time to recharge, PowerLink's internal battery can be charged from any computer with a USB port or through a USB power adapter. During charging, each LED takes approximately one hour to light up. It takes approximately three hours to fully charge the PowerLink's battery.

Use as Flash Drive
See that USB connector? PowerLink works just like any other USB flash drive--simply plug it into any computer's USB port and use it to take your files with you. It provides 2 GB, but it's also available in other capacities.

Use as Sync Cable Adapter
While connected to your device, PowerLink works just like a regular iPhone/iPod data sync cable to transfer files and data through iTunes, or to charge the iPhone/iPod through a computer. A USB extension cable is included for use with a desktop computer.
