I wanted to find a charger that didn't have an annoying light so it could be used in my bedroom and this looked perfect. However it does not work with my iPod Touch. It says "Charging is not supported with this accessory".

It works ok for the older iPod Video I have and an iPod Shuffle.

Buy Monster iSlimCharger AC Wall Charger with USB Connection for iPod (Black) Now

You need to be careful when buying a charger for your iPod. Many of the cheap ones on the market don't have any protection to keep your iPod from overcharging, heating up and burning out. And guess what, if you over charge and burn out your iPod, the warranty is void. This charger is a little more expensive than most but it won't overcharge. It's a very well made unit and folds flat for easy packing. I've used Monster products before and their products are a good measure of the age old adage; "You get what you pay for".

I bought this charger from Amazon.com 3 weeks ago. Over this time, it has been working perfectly as expected. I keep it plugged into an outlet with the iPod's cable attached and just connect the iPod whenever it needs a re-charge. My 5G iPod video, 2.5 years old, recharges from 0 to full in less than hour and a half. The charger does not have any light indicator, but the iPod will say "Charged" on its screen, once that is achieved. Monster says there is a smart device inside that will keep your iPod from overcharging.

Something that may not be obvious from the pictures this charger is really very small. It is about the same width and height as my Motorola Razr phone charger, only at least twice thinner, making it a real winner over Apple's own charger it will fit in much smaller pockets. The prongs are shifted from the center to one side and spring-loaded, so unfolding them is a snap, quite literally well, in a good way.

Obviously, a dedicated charger for an iPod is by no means necessary, as long as one remains within reach of a computer, but it is a great convenience, especially for those of us who rely on a laptop. You know your computer only charges the iPod when it's awake, right? Not to mention the times when there is no computer around a scary thought, I know...

Finally, a note for fellow comparison shoppers: the current price for this item here, ~$21, is good. You can get it from that popular internet auction site for $10 but will pay another $10 in shipping. Or, you could consider Apple's own charger, I heard it is cheaper from Apple directly, or from that same place on the web, the one that rhymes with "bay". I just liked Monster's charger much better. And do yourself a favor, stay away from those $1.50-$2 chargers you see popping up in your "iPod charger" search. How much did you pay for your iPod? Thought so...

This device will cause your iPhone 3Gs to display an error message, and it won't charge. Seems to work OK with other iPods and even the iPhone 3G however. One star for a flawed description of the product.
