(More customer reviews)I waited for my iPhone completely run out of power. I put in two brand new AA batteries into the charger and connected it with the iPhone. It started charging. After about lhr, suddenly an error message was displayed on the screen 'Charging is not supported with this accessory'. I guessed the two batteries were probably depleted. When I took them out, they were so hot that they smelt like burnt plastic although there was no physical melting. At this time the phone was charged to 30%. Then I put in a new pair of batteries, same thing happened and the phone was charged to 60%. Then I put back the first two batteries which had been cooled off. They continued working for about 10min then went completely dead. The whole process took me 4 new AA batteries and 2.5hrs to charge to 60+%. In addition to the over-heating problem, I have to say it can only be the last resort.
I have an old iPod nano. It worked well. Two new batteries and 2hr15min charged it to full.
No cable came with the product which is not a problem for me. The battery cover is very easy to slide open when unplug the cable or when turn the button. But it will not be an issue if you hold it tight when you unplug the cable.
Not recommended for iPhone. Look somewhere else.
