is there a way to charge this other than using the car charger? Also, how do I obtain an additional car charger in case this one breaks?

According to the product description, any car charger that outputs 5 volts to the USB port will work just fine. You should be able to find those chargers at electronic and, possibly, hardware stores. Just make sure it won't output more than 5 volts, or you'll fry the unit and probably kill the fuse for that cigarette lighter. Also verify if you need a 12 volt or 24 volt charger that plugs into the lighter. Some might be multi-volt, which would make things easier. Most lighters use 12 volts these days. I think 24 volts are typically trucks, mainly tractor trailers and the like. As for a different charger, such as the power bricks for the wall outlet, just be certain it's sending 5 volts to the USB and not more, and you'll be fine.

My daughter's charger also broke after one month or less. I contacted the company through my amazon account and they apologized and shipped me a new one right away. I receiced it within maybe 5 days. If you contact them, they will probably do the same for you.

Sounds a little like what happen to ours, but a charger never came with the car, like it was supposed to. So don't know fully if it is the same problem.

The one I bought came with a wall charger. I bought a separate charger to charge batteries more quickly. You may want to consider doing this. The charger that came with the car is very slow.

Fortunately I have not had this problem. I would suggest attaching it to the charger one more time to see if you can get it to charge. Otherwise I would return it for an exchange. I bought an extra battery and have had no problems with the charging of either one.

I've been able to charge on a car charger via USB. I found the charge to happen fairly quickly and am happy with it. It charges better than I would expect (though my last phone would die even when on USB so my standards are low)

I would first try and contact seller to see if they will send you a new charger. If they do not try the manufacturer they should send a new charger since under warranty.

Sandi,We unfortunately do not have a car charger, but that is an excellent idea! I will inform my supervisor. Thank you for your question.MadelinePhoneSoap Support

There were no additional charges; however, if you want a car charger, you would have to purchase it on your own.

I ended up using a friends extra charger that they had. If you buy one from Best Buy or somewhere legit it's probably about $30-$40. No wonder it was so cheap!

Hi. You can contact the manufacturer and see if they can replace the charger for you because I believe that this unit comes with a 1 year manufacturer warranty.

You can get an adapter which has wall plug on one side and car adapter on the other. Search for car charger ac adapter. Good luck.

I have no problem charging it. Try what Terri R. answered and if that doesn't work, speak to the seller - he's very nice.

It comes with a home charger. You would need to buy the car charger separately.

i did not receive one but there has to be one you can buy somewhere, i only bought it to replace a coworkers whose i broke and haven't played around with it at all. im pretty sure you can charge it with USB and i know they make USB car chargers. hope that helps

It did not come w a car charger, but if you have a USB port in the car, you can charge it in the car with the normal charger
