Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Duracell Instant Power Charger for USB Compatible Devices
Customer Review: A must for those needing extra power for media players
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought two of these. Couldn't beat the price. They are small, about the size of a pack of Trident or Dentine chewing gum. They come with a standard male USB to mini male USB cable. They work great with my touch-screen media player. I couldn't give them a Palm Pre rating as I don't own a Palm but otherwise they are pretty good. Time will tell how long they will last but I assume they will have a charge-recharge cycle like any other Lion battery.
The one small drawback to these babies is there is a switch that you have to turn on when you are ready to use them as an additional battery. The instructions caution to remember to turn the switch off when not in use to prevent unintended discharge of the Lion battery. The switch is the reason for the four star "Ease of Use" rating. Maybe I am being picky but it is just a little annoying having to remember to turn that switch off. I would think that they could have built-in an auto-on sensor that would detect when the battery was attached to a device and turn it on.
Once the unit is connected to your device and switched on there is a dual colour LED that indicates the relative amount of power left in the Duracell battery. It's green when full power is available and it turns orange when the power is getting low.
My son tried one with his iPhone and said it didn't work. I don't see why it wouldn't and haven't had a chance to investigate but I suspect he might have forgotten to turn on the power switch mentioned above.
