This is a crazy price. Less than two bucks. If you have any iPod with dock connector, or an iPhone, this will charge it in your car. Just plug the big part into your cigarette lighter, and then connect the firewire to dock cable (also included), to your iPod or iPhone! Perfect. Buy one for every car at this price. I did!
While iPods dropped Firewire syncing several years ago, you can still charge by firewire connection, and that is what this does. No issue at all.
I'd review the item further, but there isn't much else to say. It's great. It even comes in pretty nice packaging, from Griffin. They make nice products.

Great price for a useful product. Worked fine with my second generation mini and much cheaper than other options.
Very handy [Posted on 2008-01-07]
This is very handy and works great. The picture doesn't show it but it comes with the cord that plugs into the charger and the ipod so you have everything you need in the car.
Worked ok for a few months.. now doesn't work at all [Posted on 2008-03-23]
The charger gives a nag screen each time you plug it in (1G Nano or 1G Video) that is a minor inconvenience, but the real problem is that it has completely stopped working about 4 months after we got it. It shows that it is charging my ipod and then the ipod shows that it is fully charged, but once it is unplugged it dies a few minutes later. The ipod can still be charged from other sources so it's not the ipod's fault. Also, watch out if you turn off/on your car while it is plugged in - on a new car with no other charger problems this seemed to cause my ipod to lock up. Also, not a problem with other chargers. I'm glad we just paid a few dollars for this.

This is exactly what I was looking for, works great!! My dog chewed on the one I got with my iPod originally & had looked for a replacement. This is the only one that worked with my first generation iPod.
