5Electrical Specifications  Nov 04, 2010 By gd "gd"

Here are the electrical specifications that were shipped with the Schosche USB12V2A Dual-USB Car Charger I received:

Power input: 12-24 VDC, 1A
Power output: 5 VDC, 2A (1A per port)

Which is just what I was hoping for.

It sure would be nice if this basic information was published in the product description here on Amazon in the future!

3We have several Palm Pre's and wanted to charge them...  Aug 23, 2009 By Pilchard
We own several Palm Pre's and wanted to use this dual charger to power them up in our car. Unfortunately this device can't provide sufficient power to charge 2 at once. It can charge one Palm Pre at a time, but can't charge up 2 at a time.

If you have cell phones, or devices that need 800-1,000ma each, this charger can't do it. Total power out seems to be about 800ma split between the two USB ports.

Other than being weak in the power department, the unit appears to be well constructed, it does fit 2 USB cords comfortably, and has a charge indicator light so you know when its in use.

5Works with my 3G IPHONE  Jul 17, 2008 By mynameisleo "mynameisleo"
Just picked up this item from Best Buy today. Had to get a charger for my car because my IPOD interface for my stereo does not charge the 3G IPHONE. :( I was initially going to get the DLO car charger for my 3G IPHONE until the cashier told me of the Scosche USB12V2 Dual USB Car Charger. It sounded ideal since my fiance and I both have a 3G IPHONE and won't have to fight for power when riding together. Ensured that I didn't get that uncompatibility error before leaving Best Buy. Left Best Buy with 80% charge and was fully charged by the time I got home in 20 minutes.

Note: Have to use your own supplied Iphone/Ipod USB cable with adapter.

5Cheap and works as advertised. But beware!  Jan 25, 2009 By Rob Mattheu
This is a cheap way of charging any device that will charge via a regular USB port. I have used it in my car for several months without a problem. It did a fine job with my AT&T Tilt phone and my iPod.

Before you invest in this or any other standalone USB charger, you should make sure that your device will charge via USB cable alone. Many phones (Motorola Razr is one) these days have what looks like a standard USB connection but require special software or adapters before they will charge.

I got this for about $5 or $10 at Wal-Mart. Great investment.

1Will not work with an iPhone 4s!  Nov 01, 2011 By R. Simkins "Just a customer"
Despite the blatant title, this device will NOT work with an iPhone 4s. And according to other reviews here, doesn't work with the iPhone 4 either and a lot of other smartphones. I was told at a local Denver Best Buy that the iPhone 4s requires a 2.1amp charging device. Somebody at Amazon should remove or edit the title on this product, or remove it completely if accurate info is the responsibility of the vendor. The info is not true regarding iPhone 4s support.

In the interest of "honest reporting" I have to edit this review. This charger MAY work with an iPhone 4s but with a catch... it will take a very long time to charge. I had a 1.0 amp charger and it took so long that I couldn't stand it! If you use the phone while charging, forget it. That will drain the battery faster than a 1.0 amp charger can keep up with. To the person who told me a 2.1 amp charger would cause a meltdown, I'm sorry but you're dead wrong. I am using a 2.1 amp charger as recommended by the Apple store near me, and it works fine. It charges the battery in a tolerable amount of time even if I'm talking on the phone or using data. I support truth in advertising, a lost art apparently. But after seeing how many of these iPhone accessory manufacturers and resellers misrepresent their products capabilities, or outright lie, I have to call them out. Don't take my word for it. Go to your local store, buy a 1.0 amp charger, keep the receipt and try it out. If it works good enough for you, then return it and buy one off of Amazon for half the price. If not, still return it and try a 2.1 amp charger with your iPhone 4s and see how much faster it charges for a couple bucks more.
