Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I just received this unit in the mail and am charging it. However, the round a/c plug doesn't go all the way into the unit. Is this normal? It only goes in about 1/2 way, and since there is no indicator light to show that is charging, I can't tell. The unit doesn't get warm or hot either. Anyone have an answer for me?
I'll write a full review after I figure this charging question out.UPDATE: All right, I charged this for the required 16 hours initially. After 16 hours, the unit was not hot at all, but barely warm to the touch underneath. I picked the correct plug tip (you get 5 different ones, all conveniently attached to a rubber bar so you won't lose them) for my 10" Phillips DVD player. As the instructions stated, the charge for a 10" screen lasted exactly 1 hour.
So I recharged this unit for 8-10 hours the second time, as per instructions. Then, I plugged it into my Audiovox D1718PK 7" Portable DVD Player (with Bonus Headphones and Car Kit sold here for $99.00 right now) and wrote down the start time at 9:18 am. I watched a movie in medium volume, then I tried the headset, then back to speaker mode. The 2 hour movie ended so I put in another movie. That 1 -1/2 hour movie ended too. Then I put in my kid's dvd and started to fall asleep. Finally, at 1:56 pm, this energizer battery died. That would be 4 - 1/2 hours!
Now granted this long play time is due to the fact that I used it on my 7" dvd player. My 10" dvd player only ran for 1 hour. Anything in between should be 2 - 3 hours, my guess.
I LOVE this round thing! The only thing that I didn't like was the fact that there is no red led indicator light to tell me that it's charging. The unit doesn't get hot so I can't tell that it's charging at all.
Well, I'm trying to change my rating to 4 stars, but it won't let me.
Hope this review helps all of you.
