With a power hungry myTouch 4G you need to be close to a re-charging capability. I was glad to see this product because it seems to meet my needs, has the correct cables, and does not have to be mounted anywhere. The only problem is, it also needs to work.
The first one came dead on arrival (DOA). When I plugged it in, the Channel display was just dark and blank (with or without my phone plugged in). When you plug the phone in it is obvious that no charging is going on. Just to be sure, I tried plugging it into my auxiliary plug and my other car's plugs. My old T-Mobile charger works in all these outlets... I just do not use that phone anymore.
Gomadic's customer support was excellent. They sent me a replacement and I got it in two days. The only problem is that the unit has exactly the same problem as the first one. I wonder if they got a bad lot from the manufacturer. Hopefully, they will test the next one before they ship it to me.
Update: The third time was the charm. Gomatic provided yet a third device and this one worked! Sound is excellent through my car FM radio with little or no static. I do have to turn the volume on my phone up almost all the way and turn the radio volume up a little higher than I would on a normal FM Station, but the sound is excellent. Also the charger seems to quickly add a boost to the phone so even a short charge seems to help me make it through the day.
One thing potential customers should be aware of is that this unit is not intended to be a hands free device as it does not have a built in mic. You will need to use a bluetooth headset to make phone calls, but when you make a phone call the media volume mutes so your call is clear. When you finish your call the music is back...
I now give it a three but mostly because of Nomadics customer suppport.
Thanks Nomadic Customer Support.Order this product for my wife for christmas she loves it. Easy operation. The only thing keeping me from rating this product a 5 star is becuase of the sound. I can hear interference in the speekers at a lower volume.decent quality when the charger is not connected but when it is poor quality. And the 3.5 wiring is garbage barely lasted a 1week and a half... Good charger tho thats all it does now!! Dont waste your money.
