Digital camera reviews of Griffin PowerJolt SE Car Charger with Coiled Cable for iPod and iPhone 1G (Black)
Digital camera Review: Burned out after 3 months
Summary: 1 Stars
Get something else. I used this only ocassionaly for 3 months with my iphone 3gs and it burned out. I tried replacing the fuse, but to no avail. The charger is dead. Save your money and get something else.Digital camera Review: Cable Too Short
Summary: 1 Stars
It does work with a 3G iPhone, but the coil is too tight and does not reach for normal handheld use while charging. Nice feature is the charge light changes colors when charging, but I only wish the cable was long enough to use the phone while charging. I drive a Subaru and the charge plug I am using is the one up front that is not that far from the driver. If you only want a unit to charge while laying on the console, then this unit will work. If you want to talk while it is charging using the handset and not bluetooth, then look elsewhere.Digital camera Review: Charges much slower than power outlet, cord is too short.
Summary: 2 Stars
Drove for 45 minutes with it connected to my 3G S the other night and showed only a negligible charge. Also the cord is irritatingly short, so much so that I could not rest the iPhone anywhere and it had to hang from the 9 volt port. I would not recommend this to anyone. I will only use it in emergencies.
Get a USB car adapter and use your included cable.
Digital camera Review: Charges, but gives audio feedback
Summary: 2 Stars
This charger works fine to charge my iPhone 3g, but I've noticed when I plug it into the stereo in my Camry Hybrid it generates a buzzing noise.Digital camera Review: Charges, yes. But with audio feedback and a very tight, short cord
Summary: 1 Stars
This product is adequate and nothing more, in my book. The cord is so tightly wound that you can't take advantage of the minimal length that's there, so if you aren't sitting on the front passenger side with the seat moved all the way forward, forget accessing anything on the phone. The cord is so short it won't even reach the seat to lay the phone down. Pretty much everything else about it would be OK, but for the same money much more can be had with other brands/designs.
