Hey guys, was just wondering whether those RM20 bucks cable + charger and car charger set are ok to be used on iPhones?

Bro, in my opinion, when it comes to chargers and especially car chargers, don't go so cheap. Just spend a little bit more money and invest in a better quality charger from a well known brand like Griffin or something. It's not like buying a cheap casing, coz all u might probably get are scratches but the phone is still functioning. If the cheap charger is not properly rated and does not have any protection against surges or power spikes while charging in the car, you'll probably end up with a dead phone.

So to put it very simply, if u can afford to get an iPhone, u can most definitely afford to get a good proper charger.

I'm looking for a air-conditioner vent mounting clip for my iphone for use in my car. Something that will be ok with the fact that I've got a case on my phone (so a little adjustable).

Failing that, a windscreen mount (with suction cup), provided that it is legal here in Malaysia (I'm not sure of the laws, but it never seems to be the same anywhere I go, can anyone inform me?). Again, something that will accommodate the fact I've got my phone in a case.

I'm wanting to mount it with good visibility to the sky through my windscreen for optimal GPS reception. I find if I have it sit in my center console, or mounted out of my cig lighter plug it can frequently lose reception, so I end up having to hold the thing out in front of my while I drive when I get lost which isn't the safest of things to do.

So, can anyone recommend where to get either of these products? I live in petaling jaya, although I'm happy to make a trip into KL or anywhere else not too far away to pick something like this up.

i got mine from this mobile phone accessory shop in 1Utama, about RM20 bucks if i recall correctly. the whole package includes a windscreen mount with suction cup, and also an air-cond vent mounting clip together. i've been using the windscreen mount and it's been very sturdy so far.

i can't remember what's the name of the shop, i think it's called Novacell, but i can roughly tell you where in 1Utama it is:

it's located on the top floor, near TGV, at the stretch where it starts connecting to the new wing. directly opposite TGV's popcorn counter is a shoe shop, so walk down along that stretch of shops, and u'll see Novacell. it should be the 3rd or 4th shop on that row.
