This thing has poor instructions. Finally gave it away. Never could get it to work.
Take this for what it's worth. When the first hard drive died, I thought "Okay, bad hard drive and I had left the iPod in the car on some freezing nights." When I replaced the hard drive and that died too, I thought "Okay, maybe bad iPod design." But when we used my wife's iPod Photo, which was quite reliable, in the car on a cross country trip and it began to show the same problem, I began to suspect the Griffin PowerPod and stopped using it with the iPod Photo, after which it seemed to run just fine. Your mileage may vary.I used this with my 4th Gen iPod in my car.
This WILL NOT WORK with an ipod video or a iphone or an ipod touch ( I tried it with all) I bought this to charge my iphone and it seemed like it had the correct attachment, however the other end is firewire which WILL NOT charge the iphone.the iphone will say incompatible. Maybe if you have an old black and white ipod this will work I don't know why it matters but it does.
Always handy to have if you are playing your i-pod in the car on a long journery or you just forgot the recharge at home.
This is exactly what I was looking for, works great. This is the only one that worked with my first generation iPod. My dog chewed on the one I got with my iPod originally & had looked for a replacement.
