5.0 out of 5 stars Works just like it's supposed to, USB feature is nice bonus, June 23, 2008

By	Gabe Graham "Gramster" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I think this thing deserves some better reviews on here - some of the previous reviewers may not be meant to own electronics. To the guy who tested it with a volt meter: 9.3V is pretty damn good for a 9V adapter, I've seen 9V adapters with 15V readings. Pretty much everything has an internal voltage regulator anyway. And the fact that it can put out more than the rated current is a good thing, not a bad thing.

Bottom line, this thing works just like it's supposed to, and the USB charger is a nice touch. It's compact, I like the folding prongs. I'm surprised someone broke one off, they seem strong enough to me. My only complaint is I wish all the extra plugs clipped on to the adapter wire or something so they couldn't get separated.

A 4 star product, but it needed the rating boost to counteract a few electronically handicapped individuals.

5.0 out of 5 stars PowerLine Response, July 16, 2009

By	PowerLine (Georgia, USA) - See all my reviews

In response to some posted reviews:

"A. Wilson's" observations of the PowerLine adapter and other brand adapters are correct. Most universal adapters are "unregulated" meaning that the output voltage varies depending upon the load put on the adapter. On these type of adapters, an output may be rated 6V at 500ma, but at a load of only 100ma, it might output 9V or more. PowerLine universal adapters are "regulated" meaning that they output the same rated voltage no matter what load is put on them. This is far superior and safer for the connected electronic equipment.

"Steven Daugherty's" review is also correct regarding damage to another reviewer's digital camera. The most likely cause of the damage is due to improper setting of the polarity. In fact, we have found in 99+% of damage cases that improper polarity setting was the cause. We provide very detailed illustrated instructions with our adapters and also provide a toll free number to call for assistance in configuring the voltage and polarity on the adapters.

The assertions made by reviewer "bruceaa3" are not correct. The voltage measurements he stated are well within the standard 5% manufacturing tolerances on the adapters, and as pointed out above, the PowerLine adapter voltages are "regulated" which is far superior to most other's "unregulated" adapters. This reviewer also stated that the PowerLine adapter put out 2880ma which is much higher than the rated 1300ma and that that was probably what damaged another reviewer's camera. This is not correct at all. Adapters are rated to put out a certain amount of current continuously (in this case 1300ma). However, they actually only put out as much current as the connected device draws from them. They do not "push" current into a device. All adapters are capable of delivering much higher current than their ratings, including ours. However, this has nothing to do with how much current is actually being used by the connected device. The damage caused to the camera was mostly likely due to improperly configuring the polarity of the output connector.

We encourage our customers to take advantage of our toll free customer assistance number if they are at all unsure of how to properly configure any of our products.

5.0 out of 5 stars Voltages supported, May 9, 2009

By	Evan R (SF Bay Area) - See all my reviews

I did not see a list of voltages supported and could not read them off of the tiny product image. I had to go to the manufacturer's web site (Original Power).

The supported voltages are: 3V, 4.5V, 6V, 7.5V, 9V, 12V
