I actually bought the Belkin Dual Charger. I can charge my iPhone/iPod and keep my TomTom GPS plugged in all at the same time.

Incase charger...all the way. It's nice if you need to charge your iPhone at work, and it's all-in-one.

Can I use a Universal USB Cigarette Lighter Adapter with the Apple Dock Connector to USB Cable?

I compared the technical data to the Griffin PowerJolt and they are not the same, plus the PowerJolt has a fuse.

The PowerJolt & Incase are both certified by Apple, so I am hesitant to purchase anything else. But, the Universal USB is waranteed for life compared to one year.

PowerJolt Specifications:
  • Input: 12 - 14Vdc
  • Output: 5.2Vdc;500mA
  • Maximum Current: 2 Amp
  • Fuse Type: 2 Amp blade-type mini-auto fuse
Universal USB Specifications:
  • Input: 12 - 24Vdc
  • Output: 5.5Vdc;700mA

I use the Griffin iPhone car charger than AT&T sells and have the Incase charger too I find the Griffin is much stronger in construction the Incase feels cheap. but the cord is short on the Griffin

I use the Griffin PowerJolt SE. It's the same as the regular PowerJolt, but it's a direct connection of power, it doesn't go through USB. Plug straight from the cig lighter to the phone.

Great Product. The fact that it has a user-replaceable fuse in case of a surge is a big plus.

I use Griffin Powerjolt but I do agree with ebelp regarding the length of cord. I also use Griffin WindowSeat and the shorter cord makes it difficult to reach to the iPhone when charge is needed.

I've been using the iGo charger. I can charge pretty much anything with it. It has a changeable tip, so you can charge numerous devices.
