FAST & FURIOUS COVERAGE @ INSIDELINE.COM: www.edmunds.com Opens Friday, April 3!!! In the movie business, cars are expendable. They’re not respected, nowhere near cherished, subject to abuse and constantly thrashed. It doesn’t matter if the cars are Ferraris or Ford Crown Vics, the job of any vehicle in a movie is to tell the story effectively — even if it must be destroyed in order to do so. And in a movie like Fast & Furious (opening April 3) the cars do a lot of storytelling. We should know; we went behind the scenes. In October of 2007, Dennis McCarthy was hired as the picture car coordinator for Fast & Furious, and after leasing a 60000-square-foot shop in Southern California’s San Fernando Valley and hiring a staff of mechanics and fabricators, he got started building the 240 or so cars that would be needed for the production — to portray about a dozen on-screen cars tied to a character. After all, duplicates were needed of every car to ensure the production never had to slow down; to perform specific stunts; and to be wrecked in the most spectacular way possible. Using documentation from the production’s picture car department and in-person interviews with McCarthy and his hard-working team of fabricators, Inside Line has created the most comprehensive guide to this year’s hottest movie cars. Here it is: Inside Line’s guide to the cars and trucks of Fast & Furious.

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.

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.

Works on some devices but not 2nd gen Zune players (8gb, 30gb, 80gb). Worse than other USB chargers in filtering ignition static (i.e., not good for powering MP3 player while playing).

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.
