Not worth hassle even if free.
UPDATE TO REVIEW: After more experience with this charger, I have discovered the barrel connector is not the problem. It is reliable. It is either the charger cannot supply the needed current to both power and charge the Acer A500. Although the Tab battery indicator shows Tab is being powered, it never chargers and final drains existing Tab charge when Tab is powered.
Since the original Acer AC Power Adapter for A500 is infamously too short, I used the extra cord length and barrel connector on this China car charger to double the length of my AC power adapter by splicing Car DC Chargers cord to end of my Acer AC Adapter cord. With more than a week experience, results have been reliable....and great finally having a useable double length AC Adapter without dishing out $30 for an AC replacement adapter.After one week failed and would not charge acer
tablet very disapointed brought a replacement from walmart which works fine

P.s. i would give it no stars if it let me but i had to choose 1 star Worked well for 2 rides with Acer A100 as GPS, during 3rd ride tablet showed that charger switching on/off every second... so I consider charger as dead and waist of money.
BTW: I thought that it should be straight forward to get 12V, 1500 mA from 12V car's power network... but for a some reason this simple device is VERY unreliable :-(

Ran this thing for several hours in the car and it seemed to drain the tablet battery rather than charge it. I'd call it a TOTAL WASTE OF MONEY. DON'T BUY IT!!
