If you are careful ... [Posted on 2008-08-07]
This was purchased for my son's Zune as he did not have a means to charge his Zune directly from the AC outlet. Although it does charge the zune as advertised, it's construction is questionable at best.
The metal strips (tangs) that plug into the wall socket have no strain relief on the interior of the white housing. After a couple of insertion/removal cycles into the AC outlets, one of the tangs pulled out of the housing rendering the device unusable. Upon inspection of the interior, it was observed that the rear of the tang was cold soldered to the wire that connected to the PCB. While I may be able to grind the surface of the tang to obtain a suitable surface on which I may re-solder the wire, I may just chose to wire a replacement AC cord directly to the PCB, preventing a repeat failure.
Good news is that the PCB is still functional even if the housing is not.
