Nokia Car Charger for Nokia Phones May 19, 2001 The Nokia Charger works great compared to many chargers I have used before. I previously had an analouge Motorola phone and had one of those chargers that plugged into an outlet in your house and would take all night to charge for a usage of under 8 hours. It became a real pain. So I went out and bought a Nokia 5120i and bought this charger. My phone didn't lose power for days, but when it did, I plugged in the charger and it started the job. When you plug the large end into the cigarette charger in your car, there is a little light that comes on to let you know that there is power going through the charger. Than you plug the small end into a hole in the phone. If your phone is on, you will recieve a message saying "Charger Connected" and than another message 5 seconds later saying "Charging." Then the charger starts the job. If your phone is down to the last quarter of energy, it will take approx. 30 minutes to charge full. THATS FAST. If you have 3/4 of the energy it will take about 2-10 minutes to charge full. And the battery will continue to last for a long time. Just keep charging whenever energy is lost. I have had this phone and charger for over one year and have had no problems. One complaint of many people is that the cord is too short. Well for me its not. I have a Chrysler Concorde and the phone reaches fine. The cord will stretch between 1 to 2 1/2 feet. So that should answer your question. If you have any other questions, I recommend that you contact Nokia.

Works fine & dandy Nov 28, 2000 Kinda hard to get excited about a cigarette lighter adapter, but I must say, it has worked reliably for a couple years! Hasn't ever failed me. Guess that makes it deserve 5 stars.

A very good and reliable charger Dec 12, 2003
By Oyvind I bought this charger primarily for road trips. It takes me about 1 1/2 hour to charge my phone, and hence you might not need it that much if all you do is commute. It does however add the advantage of unlimited talk time in your car, whenever you do need it.The charger has a very solid feel, and it appears to be very good craftsmanship. It has proven to be very durable. I've owned and frequently used this charger for more than 2 1/2 years now, and I've never had anything go wrong with it. In my opinion, it works better than you could expect after that long of a time. It's been kept in my car permanently since I bought it, and by that has been exposed to excessive Arizona heat for weeks on end. With the desert heat comes the cooldown at night, so the temperature difference it's been exposed to has also been great. The charger has a convenient, little light to show you when it's charging. The charger's cord is a "feisty" one, so don't expect it to be too cooperative if you try to stretch it very far. All in all a charger you should expect to charge your Nokia phones (no surprises there?) for a long, long time, no matter what you put it through. The charger is very reliable and durable, and I highly recommend it. 5 STARS!!!

A handy accessory for my cell phone. Oct 14, 2001
By K. Chamberland Charging my phone in the house with the charger that comes with it takes several hours. By using the car charger the job is done while I travel to work and it is available to use at the same time. Others have said they wanted the cord to be longer but I found it to be perfect for reaching the outlet in my PT Cruiser and my husband agrees in his Dodge Dakota. This is a great product that I would highly recommend.

Simple, fast and effective Aug 15, 2001 This charges my Nokia 5165 within about 30 minutes. The plug fits my car (1993 SAAB 9000) and the cord is long enough that I can use the phone while driving (unless you're a PA trooper, in which case I mean while I'm safely parked off the highway!)
