5.0 out of 5 stars Great!, February 16, 2007

By	Reginald Jean "HeavyComponent" (NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I use this almost everytime I go out. I don't have enough time to charge my Zune so I always have the charger charged and ready to go at all times. I just pick it up, hook it up and leave the door. I use this a lot at work. It is a great product and you can't go wrong. I showed it to some of my friends and they love it. They are looking forward to buying it from this website.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great! After modification it's perfect!, December 7, 2007

By	V. Kanar "Daka's mom." (Washington State, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The TunePower (TP) slightly more than doubles the video play time of my Zune. In other words, I can have a fully charged Zune, watch videos till it gives the low battery warning, plug in the TunePower (TP), let the Zune recharge, watch video until I see Low Batt again, recharge, watch, and recharge a little bit one last time (about a 1/4 charge). You can recharge and watch at the same time too.

The TP is a form fitting device... the Zune will not fit into the holder of the TP if it has a cover/sleeve/case on it. I love the case I use for my Zune (also a Belkin) and didn't want to carry around the extra bulk of the case part of the TP... so I used a screwdriver to slip the holder part off the battery part like slipping a tire off a rim. It comes off and on pretty easy. The battery pack and cord are pretty small once you pry off the rubbery holder part. It still plugs in to the Zune and works just fine and the battery is still protected. It's just much smaller for transporting. Now I love, love, love it. It works great! If I didn't love my leather Belkin fold out case so much I would simply use the TP as a case. It doesn't add that much bulk. But to use a case and the TP... hmmm, that didn't work so good for me.

Also, after prying apart to look at the insides, I'm betting the rechargable battery is replacable too. That would be great!
