Customer Review: Handy for charging a Garmin Nuvi except... Summary: 4 Stars
Seems to work fine for charging a Garmin Nuvi 750 GPS Garmin n¿vi 750 4.3-Inch Widescreen Portable GPS Navigator. The only drawback is that the GPS thinks it's attached to a computer so the touchscreen is disabled (hence you can't use it to play MP3 or program routes) when this charger is attached. Note that this is a GPS limitation and is no fault of this charger. However, for this particular application I would recommend a 12V charger instead such as the PowerLine 0900-56 12-Volt DC-AC / 1000 mA Power Socket with Enhanced Digital Power, so that the GPS will believe it's plugged into a car instead of a computer, and will therefore allow full operation of the GPS in parallel with the battery being charged.
Customer Review: Incompatible with Zen Summary: 1 Stars
This seemed like a nifty accessory: compact and energy efficient, charges two players at a time, and $10 cheaper than the bulky Creative charger with its tangly power cord and adapter. I asked the store sales assistant twice if it would work with the Creative Zen V Plus I was purchasing and she assured me it would.
It doesn't. I plugged in my Zen with its half charge from the factory, and by morning the battery was dead. I called the toll-free number on the back of the charger and was told the Duet is incompatible with Zens.
I wish I didn't have to rate the product poorly. It may be terrific. I just want people to know they should check with the manufacturer for compatibility: 800-637-2867. Their web site is unhelpful.
Customer Review: It Does the job well Summary: 4 Stars
So the main reason i bought this charger was because i lost my blackberry charger and need a wall charger for my iTouch as well.
Pros:
1. The charger is small, very portable for any type of trip. another cool thing is that the metal prongs fold up when not in use so the charger gets very compact.
2. The 2 usb ports are on the bottom and allows the charger to stay flat against the wall when plugged.
3. does it's job well
Cons:
1. the charger sits a little high when plugged in so you might have trouble using the 2nd outlet. my method was i plug in whatever i need to on the top outlet and then plug in the charger, very tight squeeze but it works. (im referring to the 3-prong plugs)
Customer Review: Just what I needed Summary: 5 Stars
So far so good with the MusicPower Duet. No more clogging my workspace or the USB ports on my computer charging Sony and Zune players for my son and I. It's now in the kitchen for easy access. This one device came at a price less than the individual name brand chargers. I certainly can't attest to any long-term performance, but I hope it continues to be fast and convenient.
