Keep your iPod and iPhone charged no matter where you're headed. Plug the Belkin Dual Auto Charger into your 12V cigarette lighter/power socket, and it will charge both devices. Charge them while you use them, and enjoy music, make phone calls, and more without draining your batteries.

Thanks to the dual USB ports, you can charge any two USB devices simultaneously. An iPod/iPhone cable and mini-USB cable are provided for use with most devices.

Hi All,

So I had an interesting situation one lighter socket and 2 devices to charge. One iPhone 3g and a Blackberry Javelin 8900. I use both and thus they both need to be charged at some point during my long 2 hour commutes.

The belkin charger has two usb ports on it...one for regular trickle charging and one quick charge port (a little more amps on the quick charge). I had to test this Quick method and thus took my nearly dead blackberry and plugged it into the quick charger...sure enough it charged up to full in about 30 minutes...where it would take about 1 hour under normal circumstances on a normal charger.

With my iPhone 3G I was a little scared/cautious and thus used the regular charging port to plug into it. It worked fine. The iPhone went to charging immediately and had no signs of errors etc....some accessories have issues with iPhone 3g and I can CONFIRM that this Charger WORKS perfectly.

The box includes a usb to apple...Read more

Please ignore my review unless you know a little about electronics and USB.

I haven't done any current tests or analyzed the USB signal (there's supposed to be a signal to enable 1A charging on a device), but I have taken the charger apart. Each USB port has dedicated connections (even ground). Other USB hubs/ports I've looked at hook all of the power connections together. This leads me to assume Belkin has dedicated power management per USB port.

Other than that, it's a charger. It charged a 4th gen Nano, a 3G iPhone, and Blackberry Pearl just fine.

This is perfect for all around use, but especially good for flying and rental cars. My wife and I usually get to the rental car with both Iphones near dead. We can easily charge both our phones from one 12v plug. Plus we save some carry on bulk with only one charger plug. Belkin also makes a dual 110v charger. Buy that too. The USB to Iphone cords work in both units. You save still more travelling bulk.
