It as short as your iPhone charger . I know apple sells a longer one that you can use with the car charger . I would know since I had to run to apple for one .

This charger is what I use for my iPad 2, so the connector is not the same as the one you would use for the iPhone 5. however, since it does use the USB port for the cord, you merely need to plug your iPhone 5 USB cable into the slot for the charger; it will work just fine. That is what I do when I am alternating the device I am charging.

It does not come with a cord. You must use the USB cord that came with your phone or purchase one of the desired length.

No cord. This is charger port only. Great for travel as it uses wall plug and car port.

My iPhone 5 cable has a lightning connection at one end for the phone and the other end is a USB connector that goes into the wall socket plug. When I disconnect the USB from the wall plug , that USB connector fits into the car charger that plugs into the car "cigarette lighter" The usb only goes in one way. What does your cable look like?

Hi Wendi! This charger is specifically designed to work with the iPhone 5, it's a mini lightning connector. The wider, USB end plugs into the portable charger (or any USB port), and the lightning tip end plugs into the iPhone 5. Does this help? If you have an iPhone 4 or 4s, this won't work.

I've had no problems at all with my laptop car charger. It works perfectly well and provides a quick, lasting charge too! Recharging when needed is not an issue.

There seems to be some contradiction here as to whether it will work FULLY with in iPhone 4.And for those asking, it appears to me to be mounted from to the car from the power socket. Se where ever your lighter/outlet is, the iPhone will be about 4" above that spot. Not too good for my minivan. But it sure has all the features I'd want, if it works with iPhone 4...

yes ,you charge it via the usb port from your computer or any other USB charger such as a phone charger. A cord is included but you can use any USB mini plug.It does not come with Iphone 5 adaptor but again you can use the cable from your I phone 5 charger. Hope it helps

Works perfect with my iphone 5. But had to buy the apple 30 pin to lightning adapter. Get the one that is 6 inches long if you have a case on your phone or it will not fit your phone. But works perfect with iPhone 5

The answer is both yes and no. The extended doesn't fit well but you can MAKE it fit to a point but takes longer to charge. I have found turning off GPS and WI-Fi when I don't need makes the batter last longer and charging with car charger works well. Personally I used this only one time on my extended battery and discovered both my plug in charger and car charger work faster

I am looking at it, and I think you could mount it the other way if you wanted to. It does not interfere with my regular charger (the one you plug into the computer or the power), however, I did have to file down the plastic on my car charger a little bit in order to get that to fit. It was a charger I bought from AT&T;, by the way, so it would be the standard one.

No. I never could get this to work in my car, the charger it's self seemed to small. I never had the compability message because I never got it to work. Will plug into a iPhone 5 though.

I am not the authority on this but here are my thoughts. It comes with a charging chord but not the plug end. I plug the chord into the square plug from my iPhone. The charger for the iPhone is dual voltage. I did a little research on-line and it looks like using a dual voltage charger (like I do from my iPhone) will step down the voltage for you. You will need a plug adapter also, so that the charger fits into the European wall socket. The charging chord that comes with it (minus the plug) is a USB and so you can charge it off your lap top as well. Hope this helps.

I have it inside the cover of my iPhone and it fits very well. I think it might easily get pushed off if it was outside the cover, and I don't know if it would work as well. I use it in my 2015 Camry XLE and I also purchased a pad charger to use in the house. It works well in both situations.

Yes, I bought this charger and leave it in my car. I have not found anything that doesn't work on one of the ends. I also bought the charge part that fits in the cigarette lighter. I charge things on long car rides and I'm never without a phone.

I use this with my iPhone 5S running iOS 7.04 and it works perfectly fine. I use it with the Scosche USBC202M Dual 10 Watt (2.1A) USB Car Charger - works with iPhone 5, 5S and 5C. I hope this helps.

I use it for my 5c. The best feature of this charger is that you can use it to charge other electronics. You just plug in the cord that connects to the electronic to the base piece. I don't have the problem of a cord getting bent, and the connection shorting out, like corded car chargers.

The only charger you can use is the one that comes with the iPhone. If you have an aftermarket charger, they are wider and fatter, and it WILL NOT fit. You also have to unscrew a button to be able to plug in your earbuds. The chances of losing this button are high. In my opinion, it's a bad design.

It's not too long. It is spiraled like an old phone cord which is nice, but definitely designed to be close to use. I have a windshield mount, you have to have an outlet no further than the where the center console meets the dash.
