it worked for charging my zen . . . exactly what i needed it forCustomer Review: Creative Zen V Plus - Beware of Charger problem
Summary: 4 Stars
Two weeks ago, my RIO Carbon 5gb died after 2 ½ years of use. It wasn't a surprise, since I had dropped it on tile floors several times. It was a sad day, since I used my Carbon daily, in my travels around the world.
The next day, I purchased a Sandisk Sansa 8 gb. I quickly found out that the Sansa did not have bookmarks, which made it unusable for me. I returned the Sansa and ordered a Creative Zen V Plus, based on PC World review from May 07.
I received my Zen V Plus 2 days ago and found it to have all the features that I need, BUT today I determined a problem.
I have several AC USB chargers and an auto lighter USB charger. NONE of them work with the Zen V Plus. After researching with Creative Labs and the WEB groups, I determined that Creative has added a proprietary feature to their chargers.
All the MP3 players sold today come without an AC charger. This is sold as a feature, because you can charge your unit from the USB bus on your computer. What they don't tell you is that, it takes over twice as long to charge using a computer, and is not very convenient.
BEWARE: If you buy a Zen V, and intend to charge it with either AC or in you auto, you will require a unit with compatibility.
I just order mine, but not from Creative.
Sorry Creative.

Customer Review: Finally, a charger that works with my Zen Microphoto!
Summary: 4 Stars
My wife and I both have Zen Microphotos. She plugs hers into a stereo at work and listens to stuff all day. She's a pharmacist and works 12 hour shifts, so she needs some variety. The problem was her battery wouldn't hold up all day. We tried some cheap universal adapters that didn't work very well. I hated the thought of spending $30, but it made a huge difference. Now she can plug into the stereo and the wall and listen all day without a problem. The product works great, just wish I didn't have to spend so muchCustomer Review: Works as advertised ... but documentation from Creative ...

... is BAD !
Nowhere I looked - when researching if I could use the adapter e.g. overseas -
does it state the range of the input voltage for the adapter !
This is the same on Creative's AND on Amazon's websites.
I would expect this info as part of the specification.
Answer - found on the hard to read mini label on the adapter :
Input : 100 - 240 VAC 50-60 Hz, Max 0.4 A, Output : 5 VDC 2.4A
