Not saying these are bad but I would never use cheap again as the last griffin ones I got from eBay caused electrical issues on my car

Those would have been counterfeit/fakes. There are a huge number of fake Griffin chargers on eBay. And Amazon for that matter...

That's not black its silver (Click on it, its silver). I want the black one on the right in the top picture. My dashboard is black and it wont be noticeable if I leave it plugged in :smiley:

Correction. 'This product claims to charge at 5V 2.1A. I've bought cheap Chinese chargers in the past to charge cheap things like Powerbanks and Raspberry Pi's and most were dreadful.
If it gets hot, then its cold,
otherwise its HOT
how do they even cover the postage and packaging with 79p?

I'm with the majority here.
The risk to your devices and car vs a few more pounds to buy a known, reviewed, reputable product.
Really not worth the risk IMO. To those saying they have one and it's fine..... the retailers/manufacturers of these types of unbranded electronics change suppliers and specs all the time. Buying today doesn't mean you'll get the same product if you buy again tomorrow.

I could bet my back teeth that something thats assemble that makes profit for 79p! is not of the quality as something that is built with quality components.
also this I would consider to be built at at least 1/10 of the cost of a decent charger. and we are not compaing
also you comparison is wrong, only the CPU is the same, the screen is vastly inferior to the S7 as is the camera and other items.

You spend £600.00 on a phone and 79p on frying it.

you could say the same about buying S7 vs Xiaomi Mi5 same internals but latter cost 1/3 of the price I didnt see any explosions of the Xiaomi
just because something has been assembled in china doesnt mean its inferior

Yeah thats what it says... But does it really output that... FC charges to 50-70% with-in 45 min via wall plug.
Like some else said above.. This thing just heats up very hot...
I travelled to Leeds from London, around 4 hrs drive. Battery died while on charge, with screen off.... :confused:

i bought this from ebay using a UK seller and it got very hot after 30 mins use. had to use my coat sleeve to remove it from the lighter port. complaint was made and went in the bin !

Why on earth would anyone trust one of these with any smartphone that costs more than £50?
Sure, many people have no problems but why even bother with the potential risk?

These are rubbish. On the 2.1A port, it literally takes over 9 hrs to charge (Note 4).

Whilst nearly 9x the cost but 2.4amp on each USB port - any good?
