Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Turbo Charge TC² Portable Charger for iPod and iPhone
Customer Review: Great for plane rides
Summary: 4 Stars
Purchased this unit to keep my Ipod Touch 2nd Gen. usable for a 6-hour plane ride from BC. Like other reviewers have noted, the switch can be switched on accidentally while putting it into a pocket but otherwise, the unit worked great. I used it to recharge the Ipod Touch while taking a nap during the flight and it charged fully (from almost empty) in about an hour. The unit does get a little warm while charging but aside from that, it works great and I still have the original 2-AA batteries in the unit. This is a welcome addition to all of the Ipod accessories available for anyone taking a trip.Customer Review: Works on Laundered iPods!
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this as a gift for my brother who washed his iPod nano. The iPod worked fine even after going through the wash EXCEPT the battery was dead. The only way it would work was if it was plugged in (charging). But having a portable music player that isn't portable isn't very useful.
So, I came across this, and he's now able to take his iPod with him wherever he wants. This external battery gives his iPod the power to operate without relying on the internal battery. So his laundered iPod works once more!
Customer Review: Great to have as a back up
Summary: 4 Stars
It works well but it's mainly something that you just want to keep in your backpack or bag or whatever. It charges it to full capacity but it doesn't seem to last quite as long as if I charge it at home. It's great though, and the flashlight is pretty bright.
The little switch does get flipped fairly easy like most people are saying. I just keep one of the batteries in backwards and that is fine for me. I would definitely recommend this product.
Customer Review: Great Charger
Summary: 4 Stars
The Turbo Charge Portable Charger worked perfectly with my iPod Touch 2nd Gen device. I used it while traveling two weeks in Asia and it worked great. I got 1-2 charges from a pair of AA which was fine with me. The only problem it has is the "off" position for the switch is the middle between flashlight and charge so there were a few times that the switch was moved while traveling in my backpack. Otherwise, a great portable charger that uses AA batteries.Customer Review: Just what I needed
Summary: 4 Stars
This was just what I needed for longer flights where my IPod would die if I watched video. This time I loaded up an entire series of Stargate (I know - Geek!) and did not run out of battery.
The flashing blue lights are a little too bright and can be distracting but that's an observation rather than a complaint.
