iGo Auto Universal Auto (DC) charger Reviews

• Dependable power

  I have bought aftermarket chargers that fall apart after a few months. Not so the iGo. This is a fine little product, it does the job quietly and well. I find the interchangeable tips to be a great idea. When I change phones, it's only a few bucks to get a new tip. This charger is sturdy and looks like I'll get a couple of years out of it.
  
  

• Use this with the A00 tip to make a car charger for your Kindle

  I have confirmed in practice and using iGo's website that the combination of this iGo Auto charger (PS00252-0005) with the iGo power tip A00 (6600600-01) iGo A00 Sprint Phones Power Tip works to charge my Amazon Kindle in my car. Using iGo's website to confirm this combo enter: select your device=Other, select the brand=Amazon, select the model=Kindle.
  
  

• Think about the long term

  This is a good long term purchase for the following reasons
  1) Can charge multiple items without having bulky chargers for each one. I keep tips for our cell phones and ipod in the car
  2) Upgrade or change cell phones/other electronics? No need to buy another charger, just a little tip. Less to throw out, a little more eco friendly in the long run
  
  
  
  

• Love it!

  These are fabulous! I've had mine for 3 or 4 years now. They're way more cost-effective than constantly buying new cell chargers.
  
  Extra bonus-they work on other stuff too, like your GPS or ipod. The website can tell you which 'tips' you need. Those run about $10.
  
  It's good in the long term, although changing tips and plugging stuff in when you need to charge different things is a pain if you're driving. Pull over first! They also sell a splitter for this so you can charge more than one thing at once.
  
  The blue lighting on the charger is also cool.
  
  

• Great Product

  Before, I had always made sure to use car chargers made by the phone's manufacturer. I've always had bad luck with generic car chargers eventually failing. But the problem with the OEM chargers is that they're typically a bit pricey.
  
  But this charger is much cheaper, and allows you to simply buy new tips for new phones. This allows you to save a lot of money. As far as reliability, only time will tell. But they sell this product on AT&T's website, so I'm sure it's much better than the generic chargers. So far, so good.
  
  The only minor issue I have is that, unlike the picture, the charger I received from Amazon wasn't silver with a blue light. Mine was champagne with a green light. Not a big deal, since it still works the same. But the silver with blue light looks a lot a nicer.
  
  
• Excellent Mobile Solution

  The iGo chargers and tips are really great. I use this to charge my cool *NEW* Kindle, iPhone, iPod, TomTom 920 and other devices. They are just great products. I only need one charger to charge all of my electronic devices. Extremely handy & nice.
  
  
• Charge your Kindle While on the Road
  By A1A535TCGNMVPI on 2008-04-15
  When you're out on the road and your Kindle (or other electronic device) battery is running low, here is what you need. Just get this DC charger and the appropriate tip (the tips are more expensive). For the Kindle it's the A00 tip. For other devices, go to the products homepage and match up the device with it.
  
  Then put tip on the adapter, the DC charger in your DC cigarette lighter (or many autos now have extra DC adapters)and then into your kindle or such and it'll charge!
  
  
• great!
  By A3U4X8GSNKRNHK on 2008-05-02
  it's a great item. first of, i like the design. second, i like its durability (i had one for 2 yrs + now). i use the same iGo to charge my cell, my gps, and my iPod (using different tips of course). when i got a new cell phone, i didnt have to spend $25 on a new charger, i simply got a new tip.
  i recently got one for a friend, she loved it!
  this item def makes my top 50 best things ever invented list :)
  
  
• Works fine

  I purchased from Amazon because of the price, which was much less than local stores. The charger itself works just fine.
  
  
• Piece of JUNK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  By A14Z7CRKHR7DYH on 2008-08-09
  Now I know why they're selling them at a such a low price. They're defective, but I only really found that out during a trip I just took when I couldn't charge my cell phone and Bluetooth headset because the wires inside the charger seem to be broken/crimped. It would start charging and then I'd lose connectivity with the charger. I'd touch it, and it would work again for a few minutes. Over and over.
  
  Go buy the "REAL" iGO product from a real iGO dealer. These are seconds!
