iGo EverywherePower 7500-Series Universal Wall/Auto/Air Power Adapter with DualPower Accessory for Notebook Computers (PS0069-10) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this for a IBM T42, Sony Ericsson P900, and a Dell Axim X50v:
The charger is ENORMOUS. At least twice as heavy as the OEM IBM charger, and weighs more than the IBM, Sony, and Dell chargers added together. The cords are thick and extremely long. This is not the charger to bring on a trip.
The plug is a three prong plug which usually creates significant problems in a lot of foreign countries if you want to use plug adapters. You can buy cords to fit some plugs in foreign countries from IGO, but they are fairly expensive. Further, the cord to the IGO charger is, of course, proprietary - lose it and you are hosed.
It didn't work with the Sony phone at all. With the IBM Thinkpad, it charges the laptop when its in hibernation or off, but it doesn't work right if the Thinkpad is on - it switches off and I have to unplug it and plug it in again. It works fine for the Dell.
I'm not exactly sure who this is targeted for - its nice that I can plug in two devics at once, but at home I don't mind having everything plugged in with its own charger. This is WAY too big to carry on travel. I can't even imagine whipping this sucker out in the airplane to charge my laptop.
I've switched back to the OEM cable and two charge-and-sync USB cables for my phone and PDA that I found on the internet.
