Two problems keep me from rating this very inexpensive car USB charger higher:

1. The charger that I received doesn't appear to be the same charger pictured on the product description. (eg., completely different molded body, glass tube fuse instead of plastic-encased fuse.)

2. It won't charge my iPhone properly. After some testing with a multimeter, it seems the output is close to 6 VDC, despite being labeled as 5 VDC +/5%, which would be a max. voltage of 5.25 VDC.

Overall, it's not worthless. Other less sensitive USB-powered products may be able to be charged by this.

I bought two of these, both fell apart (literally) within several weeks of infrequent use. Even when they worked, they never worked reliably and required connstant twisting and turning and pushing to get a connection. The whole thing looked like they were put together by a child (no, I'm just talking figuratively and not implying what you think I'm implying about Chinese labor, which is a whole different issue). A gentle squeeze, the thing goes squeaky and shaky. Unlike most other car adapters, this one doesn't have a snugly fit into the cigarette lighter. It is just so wobbly everywhere. Avoid such low quality products to keep your life sane.

An update: I subsequently purchased a few Universal Mini USB Car Charger Adapters offered by Eforcity (search Amazon or eBay). What a difference. The Universal Mini USB Car Charger Adapters is exactly what this product should be made alike. Solid, compact, and reliable. Both are inexpensive Chinese made products, but one is total junk and other a gem.

Pros: Inexpensive and eforcity is quick to ship. Fuse, easy to disassemble(easy to modify to work with new iPhone 3G/Samsung Moment/Rant). Works to charge a lot of USB connected devices(Phones,PDA,older iPods,Bluetooth wireless adapters, etc...).

Cons: Not compatible with all Phones or newer iPods. BUT there is a solution that requires soldering and two 100k Radio$hack resistors.

Overall impression: Good deal, decent build quality, easy to take apart to "fix/modify it" to get it working with newer iPods/iphones/cell phones.

Honest reviews on eForCity Universal USB Car Charger Single Port

This device works as expected no issues at all.

I do think the body is bigger than it should be, and can be reduced by 50% or more, with essentially a "stub" containing the USB port.

Still this is priced right and works.

Pro:

-Works well with many devices

-Snugly fits in the cigarette lighter

-Light tells you if you have power

-GREAT PRICE!!!

-Although slightly bulky, it's great that it has no cord of it's own. When traveling I would be bringing my spare 3715WW Tungsten 5 cable (see my other review) anyway, so there's less tangly mess to deal with

Con:

-Slightly bulky... for it's size I think that it could have 2 connections so that 2 devices could be powered/recharged at one time

Bottom line: Highly recommended.

I've had this for 4 months now, and while I don't use it that frequently, when I have, it's been great. The one I had before it was very weak at the connector to the phone and it broke. This one seems to be stronger. I bought it for a great price and leave it in my glove compartment in case of emergency.

Cheap Craftsman 19.2v C3 1/2" Impact Wrench (Tool Only. Battery

Customer Ratings:

I purchased the full kit, which includes two NiCd batteries, a charger, and carry bag. Only had it for a week or so, so can't comment on longevity or battery life. What i can conclude though is this thing delivers the torque. This impact is rated to 200 ft-lb. I got access to a 250 ft-lb torque wrench and confirmed that this will in fact loosen bolts tightened to 200 ft-lb, barely. Might eek out a bit more, but 200 is already pushing the limit. I'm glad to see a tool deliver its rated specs. I tried it out on my car, which just got back from the tire shop. They always crank the hell out of the lug nuts with their air tools and this Craftsman had no trouble getting the lug nuts off. Did some brake bleeding over the weekend, so all four wheels came off and on no problem. I have yet to run this thing down, but doing 16 lugs off and then back on was a non-issue.

The handle is covered in rubber. The red part of the trigger is plastic, with a black rubber inlay. Overall, the tool feels good in the hand. I'm quite impressed with it, especially considering the price. I was originally going to spend $300+ on one of the more powerful cordless impacts out there, but i'm glad i held off. If you're not working on heavy equipment all day, this impact seems to do the job for your average auto repair duties. I'll update this review as I get more time with this tool. Sure, i just did my wife's brakes, but that was pre-impact. My car now needs brakes and I can't wait to let the impact loose again. How the heck did i live without this thing for so many years....

December 2011 Update (1 year ownership)

So I haven't exactly been using this every weekend, but it never fails to impress. I've done brakes, tire rotations, and a CV axle replacement with this tool's help. I end up way less tired at the end of the day. It's tough enough working near the ground, in the driveway for several hours. With this tool, I get my work done faster and end up a much happier guy at the end of the job. I primarily use the tool for a lithium battery which holds a charge well for the occasional use the impact sees.

I purchased this impact from Sears to add to the other C3 products I have. Rating the looks and grip comfort I give this impact a 5 star rating. The compact drill is phenomenal. This impact, however, over heated so quickly I was astonished. Like, literally, 5 minutes of use trying to remove the crossmember on my Trailblazer EXT. I took it back and bought the Craftsman corded impact which I am well pleased in.

Maybe I bought the lot runt. I will say this about Craftsman, they are NOT what they used to be!

I use this tool for tire rotations and general work at home. I'm a mechanic as a profession so I do a lot of my owngeneral car maintenance work at home. It's not comparable to a professional pneumatic impact wrench but it is a lot nicer than just hand tools. I highly recommend a lithium-ion battery for the impact, it makes a huge improvement in performance over the Ni-Cd batteries. With a half charged Li battery the gun will remove all 32 of my trucks lug nuts torqued to 140ft-lbs, and be ready for more. If you do let the Li battery go dead the gun will still break the lug nuts loose with no problem all the way until battery power is too low for even the gun's led to shine. I'm really happy with the performance of this tool, for the price it's hard to beat. It hasn't let me down in the year plus that I've been using it. It also has a nice feel in your hand and is really well balanced.

The case was very big for my 5 inch Garmin 2555LMT. The material is not very hard and sturdy. Very cheap feel to it. I would advice to spend a couple of more bucks and buy the one that Amazon sells.

Best CableForge 12v Vehicle Car Charger (Glows blue) for Samsung Galaxy Deals

The first time I tried to use this charger, it killed my phone. Thankfully, it was still under warranty with Verizon, and they replaced it. As far as I'm concerned, this charger is not compatible with the Samsung Galaxy Stellar. I will say, CableForge did refund my money promptly, but if my original phone hadn't been under warranty, I would have been screwed. At least for this phone, stick with the car charger that Verizon sells.

Discount Belkin Dual USB Car Charger for iPod (Black)

Customer Ratings:

Hi All,

So I had an interesting situation one lighter socket and 2 devices to charge. One iPhone 3g and a Blackberry Javelin 8900. I use both and thus they both need to be charged at some point during my long 2 hour commutes.

The belkin charger has two usb ports on it...one for regular trickle charging and one quick charge port (a little more amps on the quick charge). I had to test this Quick method and thus took my nearly dead blackberry and plugged it into the quick charger...sure enough it charged up to full in about 30 minutes...where it would take about 1 hour under normal circumstances on a normal charger.

With my iPhone 3G I was a little scared/cautious and thus used the regular charging port to plug into it. It worked fine. The iPhone went to charging immediately and had no signs of errors etc....some accessories have issues with iPhone 3g and I can CONFIRM that this Charger WORKS perfectly.

The box includes a usb to apple connector cable for ipods/iphones etc and a usb to mini-usb for usb based charging devices. The color is BLACK as can be seen here....the finish is glossy.

I now have 2 of these for both cars and I could not be happier. For what is included at this price point...it is a MUST Buy.

5/5

Please ignore my review unless you know a little about electronics and USB.

I haven't done any current tests or analyzed the USB signal (there's supposed to be a signal to enable 1A charging on a device), but I have taken the charger apart. Each USB port has dedicated connections (even ground). Other USB hubs/ports I've looked at hook all of the power connections together. This leads me to assume Belkin has dedicated power management per USB port.

Other than that, it's a charger. It charged a 4th gen Nano, a 3G iPhone, and Blackberry Pearl just fine.

Best Deals for Belkin Dual USB Car Charger for iPod (Black)

I got this because it comes with both an iPod/iPhone charging cable and a mini-USB charging cable, and both can be used at the same time. Since my wife has a 3G iPhone and I have a BlackBerry Bold which uses the mini-USB connection, we can charge our phones at the same time in the car. And if any phone needs it, it's the iPhone! The best part is that this is $10 less than the same item at the Apple Store. Thanks Amazon!

If you are thinking about buying a $5 charger.. , just make sure u know it will work. I bought one before for ~~$5. When plugged it, it will light up and you'll see the charging-battery icon, but in fact.. even if it's plugged in for hours, no power is coming in. There's an article explaining why that happen, that I'm not going into that.

Be aware these are only 22 channels and don't have the privacy subchannels that the more expensive radios offer. If you are OK with that they will likely be fine.

We bought these for our daughter for out at our summer vacation campsite, she loves them cause she and her friends can go run and play and we can check on there where abouts or they check in with us. we also use them at home when she goes to a friends house. the signal strength/range is very good she can go blocks away. she got lost looking for a friends house and called me asap i was able to talk to her while i went to find her, made it nice cause she told me the street sign where she was at and we found her right away. we decided to see how true the range was and took one to the video store which was 15 to 20 city blocks from my home and we got awesome reception, some static but not bad at all. the next test will be going further to see if they do have true range. if you want a nice product for this type of use i suggest it.

These radios were bought as a test for other radios from the midland product line. They were used nov 5-12 2012 on private land approx. 800 acres 200 of which is wooded the rest farmland. There is nothing but hills and valleys here where my family hunts in the 200 wooded. We have no base station between the radios. The reception is great, clarity of the sound as well. We have since decided to purchase more of these rather than the more costly ones from midland radio line. They have done very well for us and will continue to use them time and time again. A+ product.

I purchased this as a gift for my 12-year old. We have had many of these in the past and they are great forms of communication for your kids in the neighborhood, at a theme park, or wherever. I know how to work them, I know how to charge the batteries and like many many other folks pointed out THE BATTERIES WILL NOT CHARGE. And like many other people I was foolish enough to think Midland would respond to my requests for support. They did not. Only postive here is that Amazon was easy on the return policy and they should be commended for it. Midland not a company worth trusting.

Best Maximal Power FC600 CAN LPE8 Rapid Travel Charger Canon LP-E8 Deals

Customer Ratings:

This charger works really well and was very reasonably priced. It's slightly faster than the charger that came with the camera and it has a fold out plug on the back, so there are no cords to mess with, unlike the charger that came with the camera. This also has the added advantage of having an adapter to plug into your cars electrical accessory outlet (lighter). I have used another version of this for a few years to charge my Canon camcorder batteries and have always had good, reliable results.

The contacts aren't spot on, so you have to maneuver your battery into making contact with the metal on the charger, or else it will deceivingly not charge. Otherwise, it charges just fine. A quick fix might be to put some aluminum foil around the contacts to make them bigger and easier to touch from the battery's point of view.

Bought this just over 18 months ago and used it successfully a few times. Was going to take it on an extended trip as my only charger, but FORTUNATELY checked it first. It had quit working. I see it has only a 1-year warranty. Just ordered a Wasabi power supply from Amazon for about the same price, it has a 3-year warranty. I have a Wasabi power supply and batteries for another camera, and the batteries work fine. I've only had the charger for a few weeks, but it's working fine and the longer warranty encouraged me to order another Wasabi.
