 Perfect for the iPad August 25, 2010

I own a multi car socket adapter with a USB slot that won't charge my iPad. I own the Verizon Droid car charger with USB slot that won't charge my iPad. After doing some research I found out that most USB car adapters only have an output of 1 amp, the iPad needs at least 2.0 amps to charge. The Griffin Technology PowerJolt Power Charger has 2.1 amps which is perfect to use with the iPad. It even comes with the standard Apple USB dock connector that works with all iPods, iPhones and the iPad - you don't need to carry your original connector, just leave the included one in the car.
I really like how it is short in length (low profile)and does not stick out or bend up like most other car adapters on the market.
Now when I have long driving trips I can listen to my music on my iPad and not worry about draining the battery. It will charge even when your Apple product is in use.
If you are like me and own an iPad - this is a must have!
 A manufacturing flaw ? August 24, 2010

I have been buying Griffin chargers for years. Have never been disappointed until I bought two of these.
The Dock connecter end is normally branded with white etchings or the Griffin logo so that it is easy to know the side orienation correctly when pushing the connector into the dock. The problem is that these are 'blank'on both sides and is impossible to know the correct orientation. Either you have to mark this yourself or stand the risk of damage to your connectors at either end wich can be very unpleasant.
Normally the design and QA at Griffin is very good. Not so in the case of these chargers.
They are also rather large and stick out a long way from your lighter socket.
This is the real deal. August 24, 2010

Works as advertised.
Can charge an iPad as it's being used, not just while in sleep mode.
Watch out for a similar named product by Griffin (it doesn't work), and look specifically for the 2.1 amps.
That's very important if you want to charge the iPad in the car.
Works great! August 20, 2010

This worked great for charging my iPad on a long car trip. Seems well constructed and I like the fact that the cable is a standard detachable USD to iPod style cable.
Not just for iPads! August 16, 2010

After going on a cross country trip this summer with my 3G and my wife's 3Gs, we quickly discovered that the standard iPhone car chargers would not cut the mustard when using a turn-by turn GPS app. We left Maine in the morning, and just as we were approaching New York City when we would need the app the most, the 20% battery warning came on. We watched as the meter ticked down lower and lower as we arrived in the city. Fortunately - we had the other phone charging on the other outlet and was able to switch it out. Fore someone traveling alone, carrying an extra iPhone usually is not an option. Most standard chargers do fine with iPhones until you start using the GPS for an extended period, and then they will not charge fast enough to replace the charge that is being used.
I got this charger a couple of weeks ago to use with my new iPhone 4. I took a 3 hour road trip to Dallas, I left the house with my phone at 60%. I used my Motion X Drive app the whole way there, and arrived in Dallas fully charged!
I highly recommend this charger for anyone who uses GPS apps for an extended period on their iPhone!
