Car Phone Charger .
Decided to plug my car phone charger into the cigareete socket to recharge my phone after 10 minutes i smelt a toxic wire type smell low and behold my charger was red hot and starting to melt quick evasive action stopped it from melting away into the astray area smell was quite toxic luckily i noticed the smell straight away , so there seems to be no further damage apart from a melted charger .
As the charger is under 1year old i returned it to the phone shop , they werent keen on replacing it but they finally gave in , i saved myself 19 dollars , on purchasing an upgraded model .
Has anyone else had this happen to them??

one theory could be the extra energy generated by the high friction characteristics of the yellow duco ....
As I said .. just one theory
Seriously .... I wonder if there is a problem with your generator ....... the car can probably cope with 14 volts but the charger may not
BTW ... my charger (nokia) seems fine

PS. I've also installed the Ericcson Bluetooth Handsfree Kit... works brilliantly!
