Hi all,

I recently bought a few players (nano clones) from Hong kong. I have been amazed by them and they all have been great especially the latest mini version 30% smakller than the nano.

The Wall chargers!!!!!!

Well first experience with one I received a 2 pin one and a uk plug adapter it had 2 lights on the back red and green. I used this went back to it 2 hours later and no light and NO more power to the player. It had blown it up.


different charger.. (this morning)

This time I have one of the uk plug usb adapters basically its a uk plug in black and plug usb cable into bottom, This looked much better quality than the 2 pin ones and you dont need the uk adapter.

Ive seen loads of these for sale on ebay for about 4-5 pounds generally in white though.

Well plugged that in this morning connected it to the player and as I turned the switch on.

BANG!!!!! seriously a loud kind of bloody explosions scared the living day lights out of me followed by a flash from the plug and the top section being blown away from the second half which remained in the socket and my hand a few cm's away! was surprised but the player survived and my hand too thank god

Now is this me just being extremely unlucky with these 2 or is there a serious issue with these wall adapters.

Im scared to buy a new one now incase it either blows the player or it goes up again.

A little disappointed as i wanted a wall charger to use when i dont take my laptop with me.

Any advice, experience from others??
