We bought this charger after debating whether we should or not because of some of the mixed reviews. We decided to give it a try and are so disappointed we did.

Initially the charger worked, and just recently while on a trip it broke. The little green light does not work when we plug it into the car, and it does not seem to be a fuse with our car since the cell phone chargers are working fine in the car lighter. The super bummer is that it only lasted 45 days...long enough to pass the 30 day return window and yet not long enough to get us through our family vacation.

That said, I am emailing the company because the charger has a lifetime warranty and so far they have responded to my email stating that I should check he fuse in the car. It's not a issue with the car, so I am hoping to either get the charger replaced or refunded. A replacement or refund does not change the fact that we were on vacation with our family and lost because we couldn't use our GPS. Save yourself some trouble and buy another charger.

UPDATE:

The company has very promptly answered my emails and concerns and has shipped me a replacement charger. I misunderstood the original email they sent thinking their customer service was asking me to check the fuse in my car, but they were asking me to check the fuse in the charger. Even before I could check the charger fuse they company sent me a new charger. They were easy to contact and willing to send a replacement charger. I have changed my original rating from one star to 4 since they are honoring the warranty and keeping things simple. Things break so for me, customer service is key in purchasing products.
