I was a bit disappointed that 1. None of the included tips fits the dual-power accessory, 2 none of the tips I purchased and used with my Igo PS00099, which this replaced, work with this model and 3, the instructions are less than clear and,in type size and graphic size, difficult to read without 20/20 vision. Otherwise this works as advertised, full featured if not shipped fully equipped, and at a nice weight and size for travel. It actually fits well within the included travel pouch; something I could not say about the PS00099.

Purchased this product to solve my multiple cord issues while traveling. First of all because of all the pieces you need for multiple powering situations, you end up with just as much bulk as if you had several power cables.
Next, the product is just garbage. After a few weeks the retractable unit for the retractable cord broke so it no longer retracts. Shortly therafter the Power Adapter went on the fritz and I have to continuously unplug and replug the power from the wall because it just keep going in and out. This happens every few minutes so not at all convenient when running a mtg or trying to get some work done. Of course my return window had expired when all this started and the response from I Go has not been helpful. Guess I'm back to my bag of cords until something better comes along but I would not at all recommend this product for any reason. Not at all happy after spending over $80 for the system.

I have used the the Igo everywhere85 for several years; charging a fujitsu umpc, dell laptops, and my cell phone. Never any problems. Some complain about the "extra cords", but hey- they are cords and not more bricks. Never had a problem with it- does what it says. The best feature? Charging your cell phone and your laptop at the same time. Priceless. Even though the price on these is very low.

Very compact and flexible, included the adapter tip I needed.
Much improved over an older iGo power adapter I was replacing.

Don't assume that this will work with any laptop or netbook as it does not work for my ASUS netbook. Too bad I was in Bangkok and had to buy another charger there. Very disappointing that there was no hint of such a limitation.
