Review - AutoPower Charge Adapter for iPhone
Thursday, August 2nd, 2007 at 8:00 AM - by
I have three different car chargers for iPhone on hand -- RadTech's AutoPower Charge Adapter for iPhone, Griffin Technology's PowerJolt for iPhone, and XtremeMac's InCharge Auto. All three plug into your vehicle's cigarette lighter (aka 12-volt accessory outlet). All three have LED charge indicators. All three have a standard USB port, so they can be used to charge other USB devices such as iPods. And all three performed equally well in all of my testing.
So this "review" of RadTech's AutoPower Charge Adapter for iPhone will focus on the two features that differentiate it from the others. First, it doesn't include a cable at all, so the cable is neither too short nor too long. That's the good news. The bad news is that you'll have to supply your own cable and the one that comes with your iPhone is only 36 inches -- too short to use the phone while it's charging in my Mini Cooper.
Its second unique feature is that it's price is less than half the price of the Griffin PowerJolt for iPhone or XtremeMac's InCharge Auto.
Here's what it looks like:

The Bottom Line
RadTech's AutoPower Charge Adapter for iPhone worked flawlessly throughout my testing. While it doesn't come with a cable, it is much less expensive than Griffin PowerJolt for iPhone or XtremeMac's InCharge Auto.
Just The Facts
Pros: Lowest price by far.
Cons: No USB-to-dock connector cable included.
