Kindle Power Adapter March 18, 2008 Bradley G. Leon 12 out of 12 found this review helpful
Pros - Charges the Kindle quickly (although this is more a property of the Kindle itself) It's white - this helps to differentiate it from the brazillions of other charging devices cluttering my life. Cons - Metal pin is fragile - don't put too much force on the connection pin to the Kindle. It's easy to snap off and not as easy to repair. Hence - me writing this review of a replacement charger in the first place... Summary - It's a no frills charger, and it does ithe job well.
Well made, low profile February 24, 2008 S. Breeden (Columbus, OH) 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
The Kindle Power Adapter works just as it should, charges the unit without a problem. I appreciate the way they positioned the prongs on the unit, so it works sideways giving it a low profile and allowing me to plug in to an extension cord or a regular outlet that may already have a few 'fat' adapter on it. This is a space-saver , especially if one has many gadgets.
I Love This Unit January 20, 2008 Gary Anderson (Albuquerque, NM, USA) 7 out of 9 found this review helpful
Nice and compact unit. I love the small size and white color. I hate those other big, black power supplies many other devices use. Amazon, like Apple, did it right. Nice job Amazon !!! I bought this so I have one for my office to keep my Kindle always charged and ready to go. Juice it up baby !
out of stock?? February 23, 2008 Samantha Atkins 7 out of 19 found this review helpful
I left my charger on the other coast on vacation. For some reason Amazon did not see fit to have the Kindle able to recharge from USB although this is very easy to do. So I order one here only to find they are out of stock and my much loved unit is likely to be on empty before I get it. What is the deal? Kindle is hyped to high heaven but Amazon hasn't bothered to set up to meet demand. My unit took nearly six weeks to arrive. Nor have they set up to meet accessory demand. Does Amazon want to be in this business or not? If they do then it is time to bring everything up to speed related to the unit. Frankly I find it addictive and I order even more books than normal now, which is a lot. I think Amazon could profitably give a free Kindle to moderate to heavy ordering customers and do quite well.
Kindle Original AC Adapter April 15, 2008 Weatherman (Northeast, Pennsylvania, USA) 7 out of 7 found this review helpful
Myself you can't go wrong with ordering the original adapter for the Kindle. Yes, there are others out on the market, but for a home AC adapter, this is what I think is best. It's the one that Amazon makes, has a long cord and you know you're getting the right product. Yes, they were on backorder but now they're in. I ordered an two extra to keep on hand for those "just in case" scenes.
