What is Bulk Rate? BulkRate is a semi-wholesale system with items priced separately from retail. When you use bulk rates, a flat $1.70 registered air mail fee will automatically be added to your cart to ensure delivery of package. While BulkRate's intention is to offer cheaper prices when you buy in bulk, because it is priced separately it on occassions show a higher than retail price. That's why we ask you to enter BULKRATE as a coupon code to manually activate the rates. You can always opt not to use the bulk rates. If you are looking for wholesale prices please feel free to contact us.

Pros: Does what it is supposed to. Very small. Charges quite fast. Does not get very hot while charging. The ones I got could also take a Micro SD card and work as a card reader. The usb connector folds so you can carry it without being afraid that it will break. The LEDs that indicate when it is charging and when the battery is full are clearly visible. It can charge any Li-ion and LiPo battery.
 
Cons: The keyring was quite useless and gets in the way so I removed it.
 
Other Thoughts: Would we nice if there was a version of this with a cable so that you can connect it and leave it on the desk rather than having it sticking out your USB port.
 
Bottomline: Buy at least 2 of these.

Really great

Pros: - Really cheap.

- Works with all kinds of batteries (tested with Motorola, Sony Ericsson and Nokia).

- There's a LED light that tells you with the battery is properly connected and when is fully charged.

Cons: - Had to use it with an extension cable on my PC to lay it on the table, 'cuz it was a bit 'heavy', but I didn't had this problem when using it on my notebook.

Bottomline: Really useful! I'm carrying it around in my backpack and it helped me many times on work and college (inclusive recharging my friends batteries).

Good for Emergencies if battery is not fully flat

Pros: A nice handy device to charge with your PC's USB Port. Very attractive pricing for such multipurpose capability.

Cons: 1. Keychain is in the way, useless. Suggest removing the keychain.

2. Unable to charge a very flat or extremely low battery. Suggest charging while there's still some power left.

3. Might not work with certain batteries that doesn't have a flat contact point surface

4. Unknown charging times. Left it charging for 3 hours for Sony Ericsson battery and it is not full.

Bottomline: Overall looks flimsy but it just works when required. Just take note that it may not charge if your battery is drained out completely.

Cheaply made--does not work on my motorola cells!

Pros: This USB Cell Phone Battery Charger is very compact.
 
Cons: This USB battery charger does not fit either of my Motorola Cell Phones.  I have the Boost Mobile Motorla i465 Clutch and the Boost Mobile Motorola i776 cell phone and neither of the batteries work with this USB Cell Phone Battery Charger.
Built on a keychain--why would you carry it on your keychain?  It'll break off easily.
 
Other Thoughts:  
Bottomline: For $2, it's worth a shot to give it a try, but if you have either the Motorola i776 or the i465, don't waste your money as it will NOT work.
