Charge your compatible USB-powered device on the go with this Griffin Technology PowerJolt GC36558 charger that plugs into your vehicle's 12-16V DC accessory outlet for easy use. A SmartFuse circuit breaker helps guard against power fluctuation.

USB Vehicle charger

Not a sophisticated item, but it does what it is supposed to do. I needed this for a long trip to keep my phone charged while using it as a navigation device. A bit pricey for what it is; and there are models that can charge two devices; but that is not what I needed and it worked well.

Great for PC, HD-MUSIC files.

I bought this to listen to a growing portfolio of 320k MP3 and HD-FLAC files downloaded to a notebook...what a difference in the quality and robustness of the sound.
This is a USB DAC that by-passes the PC soundcard. It is perfect with audio enhancing software and Windows Media Player.
I have only used this with low impedence, around ear head phones (B&W P7, Bose QC-2) and Klipsh S4 IEM phones. All produce a much better listening experience than playing music through the PC soundcard. There is more and cleaner power driving the music when needed; and the sound of all instruments can be differentiated in passages not clearly played through the soundcard. Piano notes are clear and resonant and bass passages and drums do not run together or rumble. This is a great addition to any PC-based music experience.

Excellent sound experience

Headphone experience is higly dependent on personal sound preferences...these fit mine like a glove. Easy to listen to a range of music for 2 or more hours without tiring of the sound or discomfort.
I compared these to Sennheiser Momentum, Denon AH-D600, B&W P3 & P5, AKG ?, and
Bose QC-25. The music ranged from The Who, Herbert Mann, John Coltrane, 9-Inch Nails, Herbert Hancock, Traffic, Supertramp, a Bach concierto, and Nora Jones. These won every round for best performance at combined bass/midrange/treble performance; and piano, female/male vocals, sax, acoustic and electric guitar, bass guitar, and full percussion. Easy to discern all instruments in the Bach concierto...just phenomenal. All music in FLAC files. My at home and travel experience after 4 weeks remains excellent.
Build quality and design are superb. These are definitely worth a trial against any favorites you may have. These are very efficient (approx 25 ohms) and equally perfect for DAP/mobile devices; HD-music file formats; and home systems.

Belkin - Mini-Display Port-to-HDMI

Look for this adaptor in the Apple section - not the general PC adaptors.
This adaptor can be used to run 2K LED monitors from a PC with a mini-port.
I have used this adaptor for several weeks. It is essentially plug-and-play. I am using a 23" 2K monitor, run off a Lenovo X230. The monitor is being used for extensive spreadsheet applications; often with multiple spreads open at the same time.
Similar adaptors do not provide the full 2K capabilities for some reason. While this adaptor is 3x the price of some others, it is the only one that works!

is the 1.2 version made in the USA like the 1.0 version was?

I own the 1.0 version of the Dragonfly, and it works well with my Macbook Air and Grado SR80i headphones. Is the 1.2 version also made in the US?
Yes, the packaging says, "made in the U.S.A."
