[QUOTE="MJG196, post: 1475785"] OK, I have done enough investigating to decide that this is very likely NOT an issue with the car or the charger. I also see other people around the Internet have had the same issue. This is an iPhone issue. In a little more detail, here are the issues and my efforts thus far: My 4s beeps continuously in 6 second cycles when plugged into the cable. It will show the charge "lightning bolt" for 3 seconds, followed by the "battery icon" for 3 seconds, then beep upon the lightning bolt's return. My wife's 4 does this in 12 second cycles. My son's 1st gen iPod Touch does not do it at all. Some other quirks: [LIST] [*]There is no sound interruption when music is playing - it plays continuously, even though you can hear the recharge beep. [*] When on silent, the phone vibrates with the same regularity [*] Once my phone hit 91% charge, the charging cycle became less frequent [/LIST] Today I charged it to 100% before driving to work...and not a single beep. Lastly, I should add that this has never happened before - and I have had this cable for two years, and this phone for 6 months. [/QUOTE]
