Accessories Do not buy this charger

Amazon.com: Motorola Rival A455 Home / AC Travel Micro USB Charger (Black): Cell Phones & Service

I bought three of these chargers on Amazon since they were dirt cheap. 6 cents plus shipping. What a deal. Not. They will plug in (very tight, almost too tight) and charge. However the touch screen will stop working unless you really mash on it for as long as the thing is plugged in. Wierd. Junk. Worth 6 cents I guess.

it does say "Out put 200mah to max 800mah"

you'd want one that does 1000mah

It doesn't say on the charger or Amazon. It just says 5vdc.

I can't return them since they only refund the item price, not shipping. The item price was $.06 so it would litterally cost me 100x more to return them than just throw them away.

Next step, slice it open and experiment to see what the problem is!

I actually had some cheap ac to dc converter once. I plugged it into the wall and tried to charge my iphone on it with the car charger. Screen stopped working as well(only while plugged in). Wouldn't trust any cheapo pos to charge my electronics anymore.
