Customer Review: Get what you pay for...but still better deal than competition
Summary: 3 Stars
The price is awesome for a dual-USB port. Unfortunately, the quality of the workmanship also matches the price.
The eForCity charger worked great for a year, charging anything I plugged in: iPod, iPhone, bluetooth earpieces, etc. Worked in a variety of different automobiles, too. However, about a week ago, while pulling the charger out of the "lighter" port, the bottom popped out, dumping the end cap, flange, and fuse at the bottom of the port. Normally, I can put electronics back together after something like this, but this was Humpty-Dumpty city.
(You might have better luck if you are "somewhat" careful removing it and/or remember to make sure that the cap (top-right in the current photo) is tight before plugging it in.)
The shape is also awkward if you have a small car. On SUVs/Vans, there's plenty of room to plug/unplug cable. On smaller cars (when the "lighter" port is under a dash or bulkhead), it's a tight squeeze.
Still, the price is great: At $7 per charger, you can get two of these for less than the cost of a single USB port from most box stores (Best Buy, Walgreen's, etc) or most major manufacturers (Kensington, etc).
