[LoverofCar]

Lemon law...ask giant to.repair it...else one to one exchange

[Xers007]

Try Mckal products.

 

I have been using it for few years.

 

From their 2 USB + 1 Cigi, to

2 USB for IPad/Tab, to

4 USBs ( 2 + 1+1+0.5mAh)

 

Get from Challenger/other IT store.

 

I have a Mckal but got the chao ta smell on the usb adaptor... however it is still working fine...

PS: Pureness, don't come here and tell me, "You mean McKay made this product so just so that I can call it junk?"

You got your vietnam coffee strainer?

 

Sorry, I can't find mine anymore (even at my in-laws place in JB)... suspect it was thrown away without my knowledge.

all these 3rd party MIC products is a hit and miss.

 

if u r lucky, nothing will happen.

 

Just buy it with your own risk. Same goes to those 3rd party batteries.......

 

I was on the verge of getting one for myself, but told myself to better buy a branded or reputable one.

My socket for connecting to the charger port not only burnt the fuse but also burn the charger port element... Luckily the technicial help me repair.

 

If not need to change the whole set.

I got the habit to occassionally, feel if it's heating up.

[Phluvcat]

Managed to get a refund from Giant @ Turf City.

 

The staff is very polite. After I related my incident, she commented she will report to her colleagues to check if the rest of the items are ok as she is concerned about more customer returning the product.

 

[Phluvcat]

mine was the wiring, it actually melt and its smoke.. almost choke and faint me when i was driving..

imagine i had to escape from car when driving..

it actually burnt the interior of the car..

 

damn pissed, i took the faulty product and went autobacs and log a complaint..

but can't do much... not even the slightest compensation..

 

for electrical product, better buy something robust and better build quality etc thicker wiring

the one i using now, pretty good.

only cost me like $40 and been using like 3yrs.

somemore fully utilized.. from gps to DVR to hp to humidifier

 

yours got one cigar socket and 2 usb? where you get it from?

 

gum siah.

[Phluvcat]

I bought mine from HomeFix, can't rem the brand. It got 2 ciggie and 2 USBs connectors. Have been using nearly a year without problem. Have used with iphone charger, bluetooth charing and GPS together without problem.

 

Normally when not in use will pull the plug out a bit so that it's not on (got indicating LED)......

 

iirc it cost me abt $12......

 

yours is cheap and yet reliable. Mine cost $14 and din even managed to use it at all...hur hur hur
