Retractable Rapid Car Charger with IC Chip for T-Mobile HTC G1 Smartphone

Short Version:

Bottom line, It's acceptable quality, and not bad for how cheap it is. Just wish it would start charging on the first plug in every time.

Long Version:

This is one of the nicest retractable chargers I've purchased. It suffers from being only of acceptable quality though.

It is loose in the car power adapter port, and requires between 3 and 5 times of plugging it in and out and into the phone and back out to get it to convince the phone its there. An annoyance but once its working it stays working and doesn't usually get knocked loose and stop charging your phone.

Very bright blue LED shows when it is receiving power, retraction mechanism is well above average for these chargers.

I was looking for a economical charger for my phone, so I chose this one. It worked fine for about a week and then it shorted out. Not sure what the problem was. I ended up having to purchase a charger from the cell phone dealer anyway.

Buy Retractable Rapid Car Charger with IC Chip for T-Mobile HTC G1 Smartphone Now

I bought this Retractable Rapid Car Charger with IC Chip for T-Mobile HTC G1 Smartphone to charge my G1 in my car. The product itself looks nice and the retractable cord is amazing, BUT IT DOES NOT WORK AT ALL! When I plugged it into my car, the charger got real hot and started smoking!! I unplugged it to avoid a fire and tried again the next day, ONLY TO FIND THAT IT DID NOT WORK AT ALL!

I guess I could've realized that nothing good could possibly come out of a phone charger with a super thin cord like this one. Most chargers out there have a 10mm 15mm thick cord, while this one has a 2mm thick cord.

My advice to all: Don't waste your money on this. Buy a real charger.
