Best Car Charger for Touch PRO?

prodigy215 · #1 (**permalink**) 11-25-2008, 12:48 PM

What car charger do you guys think works best with the HTC Touch Pro? Does HTC make a car charger for the Touch Pro yet?

I tried the Duraband Mini USB car charger before, and it is not a sturdy/strong charger (reliability wise)

Thanks alot

I got a Motorola USB charger from BestBuy. It charges my Touch Pro and my iC902

Any good charger that uses the mini USB charger tip... I use the iGo and it is a good charger.. I used it for my Mogul and I now use it for the TP... I only use it when I need to though...

I got a regular HTC MiniUSB 2000mA charger for like $10 after shipping. Works like a charm.

Here's a link:

With that charger only being 200mA, it will take forever to charge the TP battery..

He misstyped, it's actually 2000 mA, 2 amps though? That seems a bit excessive. I would be willing to bet that could damage your phone. I guess not though, it is made by HTC.

I use a charger that AT&T sold me for a Motorola Razr...it has worked with te Razr, MotoQ, Mogul, Touch, and Touch Pro with no issues.

Just when I thought I was giving good information!

I went back and edited it...sorry for the type-o.

Heh...I have had a Mio H610 handheld mini GPS unit for a few years (I use it for work now since my phone has Sprint Navigation) and it has a great mini-USB charger which I've used for all my gadgets when in the car (in fat, I have a "Y" adapter for two chargers). It's worked well with my Touch and now with my TP. I've found that my AC chargers for different devices do work with my TP. However, the charging rate does appear to vary a little bit but I'm not overly concerned.

I bought one of these off of ebay and use it about everytime I get in the car so Nav doesn't drain the battery. It has very similar specs to the home charger. Been using it for about a month now with no issues.
