Review on Enhance Your iPhone and Smartphone Experience with the EDO Tech Ultra Compact USB Direct Hardwire Adapter Kit for iPhone and Android Devices by David Gonzalez

This current converter draws 0.016A (see image) when connected to 12V instead of USB, which may not be much for a normally used car battery but certainly makes a difference on a motorcycle. or a vehicle that sits. It is ideal for connecting to an ignition controlled or otherwise switchable circuit. I haven't had any issues with "computer mode" or cutting data cables in the unit as others have described and it works great to power my Garmin Nuvi. 57LM GPS (up to approx. 0.32 A at full brightness). It's small (see image) and one side is vented, so riders need to consider placement when riding in the rain.
