Recommend a good USB car charger for my iPhone - Speedy - 01-21-2011
I need a car charger for my iPhone and don't want to buy one that is questionable from a place like Meritline. Suggestions/experiences welcomed.
Its amazing how many get only two or three stars:

Cable or no cable not important. Can be USB or specific to the iPhone connector.

Any of the tiny griffen powerjolt products

They almost completely fit in the receptacle so they don't stick out when not used. You can grab similar knock-offs at eBay cheaper if you like.

I use one like this. Works perfect. I have the rocketfish that I bough for $9.

If there's the possibility of an iPsd in your future, skip all of those and get one that outputs 2.1A

I have the iGo charger and a bunch of tips. Terrific and durable and serves many functions.

I get them from meritline for a buck or two apiece when they're on sale.
Here, $2 shipped:

We bought the AT&T iPad charger from Amazon that chargers both iPhone and iPad plus it has a USB port.
It wasn't the cheapest but it has enough output to charge an iPad even when in use. Seems like better
quality than most chargers I've bought.
