why not just carry around a car battery and hook it up?
seriously though, it does look a little clumsy and big, but the price is decent.

I highly doubt it meets safety standards. The ce mark is probably counterfeit.

This conclusion is based on what? Monoprice.com is a very reputable e-tailer.

Under what kind of scenarios are ppl using this for? If I was not going to be home for awhile, I would have my car charger or bring a charger with me. Eventually I am going to be at an outlet.

Travellers? People who are on the go all day and don't own a car or don't wanna have to go sit in their car for 20 mins to charge their iPhone/iPod Touch? Originally Posted by squall458

Dude, why so defensive? What's happening these days? Posters are so argumentative the last few days on RFD. Too bad there wasn't a rule that if people try to make this place an unhappy place, they would be INSTANTLY banned. Originally Posted by JWL
