Alpine adapter doesn't charge as fast as the cigarette lighter adapter

I've got an alpine CDE-102 deck, and this cable adapter.
http://www.alpine-usa.com/product/view/kce-433iv/
it pipes in the audio and says it charges too, but it doesn't seam to me like it's charging as fast as if I use a regular cigarette lighter adapter.. I've also had it sometimes say this device wasn't made for iPhone yadda yadda. so when that happens, I'm guessing it's screwing up and putting out Voltage or amperage outside of what the iPhone wants? it says right on the product site that it is compatible with iPhone 2g and 3g... of course it doesn't say 3Gs.. which is what I have.

Charge Up!
Keep your iPod charged while you're on the go. No need to worry about draining the battery, once you're plugged in with the KCE-433iV, your iPod is juiced up to play the whole drive long.
think I've got a bad deck? a bad connection?
anybody else had this same experience?

Yes. Car outlets are 12V nominal. Your charger will work fine.

  • My MBA suddenly shut off and after charging, nothing works except the keyboard lights

    My MBA suddenly shut off and after charging, nothing works except the keyboard lights.   I charged it and it's been hours and no sound, fan, or power chime happens.  It also says it's fully charged. 

    same or similar have to keep trying to reboot- only happens after charging overnight.

    can i charge my ipod shuffle from a cigaret lighter?

    Apple designed a modular transformer system to both simplify the plug and make travel between countries easy.
    The transformer is the same in the US (110V) as it is in Australia (240V). The plugs are also identical to those included with each countries products.

  • Does the IPAD mini come with, or have an optional, adaptor for charging from the cigarette lighter in the car?

    Does the IPAD mini come with, or have an optional, cigarette lighter adaptor for charging?

    Thanks much for the links, Johnathan.  I am going to be spending this summer kayaking in SE Alaska working with a conservation group out of Sitka, measuring data from remote wilderness areas.  I found a human powered 12v charger made by Freeplay Energy that utilizes a common cigarette lighter plug in.  With one of the adaptors you have identified for me I should be able to crank power into a mini in the middle of nowhere.
    I had hoped I could download the free Sirius XM app and receive satellite radio in addition to other mini uses, but Sirius informs me they don't cover SE Alaska, but could still receive broadcasts whenever I'm in one of the Sitka harbors that provide wifi, i.e. internet radio.
    If any other helpful takes on my situation occur to you be assured I'm all ears.
    Thanks again.

  • My macbook pro doesn't charge or operate when the battery is connected. When I remove it, it works fine only with the charger only

    My laptop is a macbook pro 13 (mid 2010).  When the battery is connected on it, the light of the magsafe adapter does not turn on, and the laptop neither. I shall note that the computer was operating normally before the battery was totally empty. I removed the battery and it operates normally. When I put it back, it's again dead, neither charges the battery, nor starts up.
    What do you think is the problem about?

    Thanks for your response! Resetting the SMC does not change anything.
    More information: I used another MagSafe charger and it worked with the battery connected, like nothing happened. I run the apple hardware test and it showed that everything is ok! I would replace my MagSafe adapter, but except that it works fine without the battery, it also works fine on another macbook pro. I am confused! Any more advice please??

  • After installing version 6.0.1 i have problems with some webpages that don't open or it doesn't charge internal pages of the same website

    I have problems working with this website that I use every day for my work since the latest version of Firefox was installed on my PC (6.0.1) previosly I had 5.0 version and worked fine with no trouble at all
    http://www.m3profesional.com/
    its a Real estate site and when i open the site and request a list of properties I need to check, the next page does not charge the info, only the header of it.

    cor-el, I started Firefox in the Safe Mode as recommended. It looked and worked fine. Same after I closed and reopened it. As suggested, I shut down and restarted and so far it is operating "normally." Pages open on the first try and the back button works just fine. The double headers are gone and all my Bookmarks are in place. I did not change any settings or stop any functions (add-on's, etc).
    Hopefully this has solved the issue. Only time will tell. Thanks for your help. I also have a long list of other things to try from Safe Mode if the issue returns.
    I appreciate your prompt help. Larry.

  • HT4743 Where can I buy my media that doesn't charge me twice for the same season? Talking about Breaking Bad season 5 here.

    Who else is going to boycot buying full seasons on itunes? I can't imagine ever buying one again after being treated like this. Shame on Apple and AMC.

    If you have purchased something twice it's because you have made a mistake.
    Apple's policy on sales of digital content is that all sales are final. If however you wish to appeal to Apple, select the content which is causing a problem and use the 'Report a problem' button in Your Purchase History on your computer.
    Currently, if your purchase happens to be your most recent purchase you will not be redirected to the report form, in this case use the report a problem option from the invoice that was emailed to you.

    Thanks

  • Hello. I recently bought an Iphone 5S. I tried to charge it with the original charger that came with the phone and it doesn´t work...The cable is good, I´m charging the phone via my PC. I read many answers posted here but no one helped me. Thanks in

    Hello. I have a new Iphone 5S and the charger taht came with the phone doesn´t charge my Iphone. The cable is good because I´m charging the phone via my PC. I tried every recomendation posted here but none helped me...I live in Argentina and we don´t have local support here, I would´ve ask for a new one but it´s not an option here. Does anyone know what can I do? Thanks in advance. Regards.

    I live in China as well and my iPhone5s is the model A1530 I bougth outside China. I have the same problem as Nikatnight with the iPhone while the iPad Air (wifi only) is working like a charm. It must be definitely something related to the carrier since I was abroad few days ago and everything worked well.
    If you pay attention at the source of your maps, you'll discover they are provided by AutoNavi instead of TomTom and make them appear in chinese with their own border interpretation. Queries are only acceppted in Chinese (p.e. if I type in english "Los Angeles International Airport"  it replies it cannot locate it)
    I suppose everything will be fine when you'll be out of censorship....
    Perhaps iOS  Apple Maps are absolutely useless for expatriate in China.
    Use Google Maps instead
    BTW, I'm surprised how much Apple might prostrate towards hard power Governments.... No matter what, money are always on top!

  • Problem Charging From Cigarette Lighter

    I've had my iPod Nano for one year. I bought a Belkin TuneBase FM transmitter (which plugs into my cigarette lighter), which I sit my iPod into and the unit allows me to play my music through my radio while also charging my iPod at the same time. One day (after using the TuneBase for about one month), I pulled the unit from my cars cigarette lighter and noticed when I got in my house that the bottom of the connector to the TuneBase was missing. The metal "tongue" and the rest of the internals (fuse, spring, etc.) that were inside the arm that connected into the cigarette lighter were missing. I found the fuse, spring and the other couple parts either on my floor mat or sitting in the cigarette lighter socket.
    Noticing the fuse from the unit had blown (the unit comes with a 1-amp fuse installed) after picking it up off the floor of my car, I went to a couple stores but no-one had 1-amp fuses. Would a 2-amp fuse be alright to use in the Belkin TuneBase? I've since been using a casette tape adapter which plugs into the iPod's headphone jack and allows me to play music through the casette player in my car. At the same time, my car's cigarrette lighter fuse blew. I replaced the cigarette lighter fuse and can now draw power from it, but for some reason no matter which 12V USB charger/adapter I purchase to plug into my cigarette lighter socket then use use my data/transfer cord to plug into my iPod to charge it, none of them charge it! I've returned a couple now. Funny thing is, the USB charger/adapters have an LED which lights up when I plug them in the cigarette socket - so I know power is being drawn. When I plug my iPod into the adapter (using the cord provided with the iPod Nano) the battery symbol on the top right of my iPods screen doesn't change to the lightning bolt as it had before when plugged in through my cigarette lighter. Before when I plugged my iPod into the cigarette lighter (while it was turned off), usually the screen went dark and showed a large battery being charged - this does not occur either anymore. It must be down to either the iPod's own socket, or the charging/data transfer cord that came with the iPod. The data/charging cord seems to work fine though -- when I attach my iPod using the cord to my computer, the iPod transfers data and charges just fine. What could be the problem? The only problem is trying to charge the iPod from my cigarette socket (which as I've said, does draw power according to the lights that turn on with anything I plug in!). What's going on here?

    How about if you plug it into a PC's (use a USB port that is NOT connected to a hub) USB port (prefereably one connected to the PC's mainboard)? Does it show the charging symbol? If so, you can then assume it's the wall adapter/charger that's bad (if you used the same Lightning cable and it charges on the PC).
    Since you just got it a few days ago, take it in to your nearest Apple Store and have them evaluate it and replace it if needed under warranty. If it was purchased at a retailer like Best Buy, take it back and exchange it for another. It sounds like either the Lightning cable or the charger itself is bad.

  • My iPad dosent sent seem to be charging , could it be the battery ?

    My ipad dosent seem to be charging , could it be the battery ?

    It could be, hopefully it isn't. First try a reset. Press and hold both the home and power buttons until the Apple logo appears. Release both buttons. Wait until your iPad starts on it's own. If it still doesn't charge try a different charger and cable. If it still doesn't charge make appointment with the Genius bar at the Apple Store.

  • Charging using cigarette lighter?

    I have a solar charging  unit that has a cigarette lighter jack  that puts out 6v, 12v, or 7.2v DC. Is it possible to charge my x201 using such a cigarette lighter configuration ? What would be the cheapest way to do this?

    Hello,
    Lenovo's new 90W Ultraslim AC/DC Combo Adapter comes with a 12VDC automobile cigarette lighter power adapter plug.
    You might want to consider one of these—while it probably will not be the least expensive, it will probably weigh less and be more efficient than carrying a DC-to-AC inverter around, since it takes the place of your AC adapter, as well.
