This is a pretty simple item, a small two usb DC adapter with a small red LED to let you know when it's drawing power. Unlike some of the competition it does not come with cables or anything else, just the adapter in a plastic bag. One of the outlets is 2.1 amps, the other is 1 amp, so you can charge two items at the same time such as a cell phone and a tablet. What I like about this item is that it is much smaller in size than others I have used with two usb outs so it doesn't take up much room in your glovebox and will not take up a lot of space around your cigarette lighter plug. I also appreciate the low cost. My experience with DC adapters is that they tend to die after a year or so anyhow. Although I would rather pay more and have one that lasts since I can't seem to find one I would rather get an inexpensive unit knowing that I will probably have to replace it on a daily basis.
Update: this unit would only recharge my cellphone ( a Nexus GSM ) using the 2 amp outlet and would only charge my Samsung Tab 7 Plus, Asus Transformer or iPad 3 in trickle mode when they were turned off, making it absolutely worthless. The brand I had purchased from Amazon before could charge my phone and the Tab at the same time while they were on, but it burned out after two months. Maybe it's just impossible to find one of these that will charge both at the same time and last a while. Anyway, I am returning this and trying yet another brand maybe my luck will change.

Worked great on first usage, but when I tried to use it a second time it made a whining noise and then smelled burnt. It was at this point that I figured the fuse had popped, but when I opened up the unit there was no fuse! From the look of the inside they never intended to put a fuse in it which is stupid.

This has a nice low profile and the 2.1 amp port charges my iPhone 4S very quickly. I would highly recommend this product.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Biru Gear Metallic Silver 2-Port Dual USB Car Charger Adapter - 2A
Nice unit, compact and looks decently made. The problem is that I bought it to charge my Garmin Nuvi 1450, which unfortunately goes into "USB Transfer" mode when plugged into this outlet. No amount of mucking with the cable has yet yielded simple charging, thus this product is rendered useless for me.Beware -try your desired device on a standard AC USB power supply before committing to this product. If it won't charge with your AC dongle, it will behave the same way with this auto charger.
