Customer Reviews

External power AND an extra Sync cable.
One of the shortcomings of the Sansa e200 series MP3 player has been it's lack of an external AC adapter to allow for charging without a PC with a USB plug.

It would have been entirely acceptable had Belkin simply created an AC adapter with the proprietary docking connector to allow for charging.

However, Belkin took it a step beyond to provide quite an ingenious solution which gives this package extra value.

Instead of simply providing an "adapter", they created "modules" that plug either into your 12 volt vehicle accessory (ligher) outlet, or into a standard wall outlet. On the other side of these modules is a standard USB "A" receptacle.

A third peice that is included is a fully functioning sync cable with a USB "A" plug on one end, and the proprietary SANSA connector on the other end.

This has a decided advantage for several reasons.

1. You don't need to purchase a separate adapter for the car, and one for home.

2. The included cable can be used as a "spare" sync cable so that you can sync from another computer, while the sync cable you receive with the SANSA can reside permanently at home.

3. Because the modules have standard USB "A" recepticles, then the modules will charge ANYTHING that uses USB for charging. So not only will this charge your SANSA, but will charge anything you use on your computer that charges using USB.

While I'm not thrilled that SanDisk did not include an AC adapter with the original E200, and am very happy with Belkins solution.

For just over the price of a sync cable alone (anywhere between 10 and 15 dollars depending where you shop), I get a sync cable, a universal USB wall adapter and Universal USB car adapter.

Not a bad deal.
Quite a lot for 20 dollars

Modular Design for universal connectivity
With one cable and two small modules (each about 1 1/2 cubic inches), you could fit in one pocket the all the connectivity you need for the Sansa. You can connect to:

(1) Your computer's USB-A slot

(2) Your Wall A/C outlet

(3) Your Car's D/C outlet (cigarette lighter)

iPod's charger will cost you no less than $40, and not include a D/C outlet! The Sansa is so much better than the iPod (can sync with multiple computers simultaneously), and the cheap power cable adds to that superior value for your dollar!

Indispensable accessory. Is that an oxymoron?
I can not imagine buying the a Sandisk Sansa player without the versatile and simple Belkin Sandisk Sansa Charging Kit. Who could own an MP3 player and not need one of these? It or something similar should be included with every MP3 player. A wall charge and a car charger are absolutely indispensable for anyone who will ever be away from his or her computer longer than the battery life of the player. This clever and compact kit gives you both. Planning a weekend drive to visit friends or relatives? A few days at the beach? You'll hate yourself if you bought the player and have to drag your computer with you on every trip or - worse yet - run out of power on a long drive. If you are buying a Sandisk player, pony up the money for this accessory now. You won't regret it.
