Duracell myGrid charger review |
|
So after a couple of weeks of using and testing the Duracell myGrid charger i can finally give some feedback on its performance.
The myGrid charger is a great concept, it is very simple to use and overall i love the product.
There are however two things that really frustrate me about the myGrid charger.
- Needing a power clip or power sleeve for every device that you want to charge on it. This itself can be costly but my problem lies with the actual power clip or the power sleeve. The clips/sleeves use the port that you use to connect to your computer to sycronize or to charge in your home/car. So in order to charge in the car or sycronize you phone/ipod with your computer you need to remove the clip/sleeve.
- So far it is not compatible with the iPhone 4 (they do not have a sleeve to suit). Duracell Australia have informed me that they have addressed this and the expected release date for it is January 2011.
To sum the myGrid up.
Great product, great concept, stylish looks but needs work to become a true drop and go solution (no power clips or sleeves). That said it suits my purpose well so i will continue to use it. Oh and would i buy one? Personally i only have the one device that needs charging so for the $$$ it would cost me it is not worth it. However if i had mutiple devices or family members with other devices i would definatley see the benifits of buying a myGrid charger.
