Is it safe to charge iPhone 5 in the car?

I just got the new iPhone 5 in white!! And I'm wondering if it is safe to charge it in your car. I've had android Phones in the past that had major battery issues and sprint thought that maybe it stemmed from the fact that I would charge them in my car. Granted I also used really cheap car chargers In the past with those android phones. it seems like thats one product apple itself doesn't make, so I'm wondering if it would be safe, and what brand of charger would you recommend, if any at all, thanks! liz
On another note, has anyone Experienced problems sending picture mail through MMS, mine just won't do it.

likely they were just guessing
when it comes to charging then the only! thing that matter is the volt level
if one charge a device which was made to charge by 5volts with 12Volts it's big trouble
nothing else can give issues

  • Problems with the pin to charge iPhone 5 in the car

    There is a problem using the very nice cases BELKIN to protect the iPhone 5 and trying to charge the phone in the car. The adapter- pin provided by MAC is to big (square) and do not allow the pin enter in the phone. It sems like it was a miscommunication between Apple and the manufactures of  cases. The problem do not exist with the charger for home

  • Charge iPhone 6 in the car

    Hello everyone,
    I just bought a new car that does not have the usual lighter socket that I used to charge my phone. It does have a USB though. Is it OK to use the regular USB-Lightning cable to charge my iPhone 6 while on the road? Or do I need a special cable for that?
    Thank you so much!

    Ahahah!
    Nah, I guess it's just a normal Renault Captur.
    Thank you so much!

  • Charging iPhone 5 interferes with car radio

    When I charge my iPhone 5 with the car charger, it interferes with the radio (not other audio sources) and produces lots of static. Anyone else have this problem? Any ideas on how to solve it?

    Search "Car radio interference causes" on Google, and you'll see that's normal.
    Choose "Car radio interference filters" and you'll find solutions.

  • Charging my macbook in the car (additional question)

    Hello so i have been researching charging my macbook in the car and something that a few people have brought up is using an AC/DC converter that plugs into the cigarette plug to charge their laptop. This seems like a much cheaper method, but i was wondering if it actually works and if so how? Thank you!

    I've used this adapter, that is sold on the website with my MacBook. It has worked great for the 3+ months that I've been using it:

  • Is it safe to charge iphone with HTC charger?

    I'm in travel now and I haven't access to my charger. is it safe to charge my iphone with HTC or sonyErricson charger. the cable connector is with me.

    Hey I have done this in person it works but only if you have a mophine iPhone battery case then you can use the htc charger on the case's mini USB port and it actually charges the case and the iPhone! The case only works for 4&4s devices.
    The above is a method I currently use, any other working methods would be nice to know as I also have this question.

  • Safe to charge iPhone with Blackberry USB adapter?

    I have the small wall-plug-to-USB adapter from my Blackberry that looks like the one below. Is it safe to use a standard Apple 30 pin + USB connecter (pictured below the Bberry connector) with it to charge my iPhone 4S? Otherwise I have to buy a second Apple-branded connector to have one at both home and work.

    usb is 5volt ios devices can charge with anything that provide 5volts
    if the charger don't follow the usb std and provide 50volts the phone will explode

  • Safe to charge iPhone 4 from surge protector being powered by 1000w generator?

    Is it safe to charge my iPhone 4 from a generator (1000w) on an extension cord. My USB adapter is plugged into a surge protector from the generator.

    If it's a third-party accessory, nobody here can be 100% certain if it will work safely.
    The only way to find out is to try it yourself, but do so at your own risk.
    I would suggest looking online for reviews of your exact product to see what others say about the charger.

  • 100% Cheapest and easiest way to Charge iPhone 3G in your car - Works

    OK So i have spent a long time in these forums, and other forums, looking for a way to charge the iPhone 3G in my car. There have been lots of posts explaining why current chargers wont work and because of the firewire pins being removed etc, yet noone has posted the cheapest, quickest and easiest way to combat this problem.
    All you have to do is puirchase the following item for £6, there may be a store right by you, plus your existing charger cable into the outlet (because your existing charger cable has the correct pin configuration) and it will charge straight away.
    http://www.maplin.co.uk/Module.aspx?ModuleNo=99487&criteria=car%20charger%20usb& doy=3m8
    Or search for item A66GA on www.maplin.com if the link doesnt work
    Its cheap, easy, works, (i know this because i bought one) and it wont burn a hole in your pocket.
    This unit puts out exactly the correct requirment for the iPhone 3G to charge, 5v at 1000mAh. This is what is written on the box, ignore the FAQ response on the site.
    The only problem is you have to take your cable with you if you need to charge in the house, but im sure you can buy a spare cable somewhere quite easily because if you broke yours for example, you wouldnt be able to charge at all would you? and although Apple arnt the best im sure they would understand they need to offer speare cables.
    Hope this solves the issues people are having.
    Cheers,

    You can't beat this deal. Buy this:

  • How to charge iphone 5s for the first time?

    Hello! I'm picking up my new iphone 5s tomorrow from the shop and I'm wondering how I'm supposed to charge it the first time.
    I REALLY don't want to ruin the battery life on my phone considering my iphone 5's battery right now is just terrible. It dies in around 2 hours
    So when i take it out of the box and turn it on, should I use all the battery on it right then and set everything up? Or am i supposed to charge it for 8 hours or whatever?

    When you take the new iPhone out of the box, assuming you have to activate and setup, plug it in so you do all of the work with a solid power source.  See what the charge level is, and if over 50% don't worry about charging when you are finised with the setup unless you feel like letting it sit and top-up the battery.
    You cannot over-charge as the unit has a protection circuit that shuts down the charging when the battery hits 100%.  The battery will trickle down even sitting, and when it gets down to 93-95% charge level, the charging circuit starts up and charges the battery back to 100%.
    While some say to drain the battery all the way regularly, that actually is not good for a Lithium-Ion battery...studies show a battery drained to 50% and recharged will have three to four times the life of a battery drained all the way to shutdown regularly.
    And keep in mind, batteries are expendable items and will degrade over time with usage.

  • HT4060 Is there a way to charge iPad when in the car?

    Is there a way to charge an iPad when in the car?

    Buy a car charger for the iPad (not for iPhone, make sure it is a 10W one)
    Another way is to get a power inverter that turns your power point into a plug in and then use the iPad's regular charger

  • Charging iPod Nano in the car

    From other posts in this area it seems that the iPod Nano is able to be charged via an Apple Firewire/iPod cable but it will not sync (transfer tunes) via the Firewire cable.
    This seems OK provided that I can continue to use my Griffin car charger to charge the Nano (I connect my current iPod headphone socket to an iFire amplifier and then directly to the car speakers
    (see http://www4.tpgi.com.au/users/aoaug/macosx.html#hifi )
    Also I should be able to use my old iPod AC adapter with the firewire cable to the iPod dock connector. My main requirement is to be able to charge the iPod Nano will travelling when I dont have access to a computer with USB.
    This all depends on being able to use the connector cable from the previous model iPod (20Gb) with teh Nano.

    Yes your old iPod chargers will work as long as you can use a cable that connects to the bottom of the iPod (dock connector)
    Also any charging accessory should work again as long as it can be connected as the iPods all required the same charge voltage, etc.
