Last week or the week before, my Wife was on Amazon.co.uk, she had seen Charger for my iPod Touch, the type of charger that plugs into the wall. You know the type, right?
Now me being me, I started to look at the reviews and on this first one, the reviews were really really bad, so I, myself, started to look at other chargers, I had seen one, with good reviews, so I thought I’ll try it and see how it goes.
Delivery
The Charger I had picked out got delivered to our house in under a week as it with most things from Amazon.
Took it out of the packaging, had the CE Mark, so I thought it must be OK if that is on it! Boy, was I wrong! Plugged it in, seemed OK, unplugged it and put it on a shelf.
Few days later came back to it, I wanted to charge it downstairs as I was watching a program. Went into our kitchen to get a buscuit for my coffee which I just made and as I walked back into the Living Room, I seen a really bright light & within a split second I heard a quite loud bang.
Went over to the iPod Touch and checked to see if it was or wasn’t alright, of course, my luck being what it is, it wasn’t, the charger had went bang & took my iPod Touch with it. So, no more iPod Touch for me for a while.
The moral of the story is, DON’T BE BUYING NON-APPLE CHARGERS, my advise is stick to Apple Chargers I.E. Apple Supplied Chargers
