I wanted a car charger that recharges quickly a Galaxy Nexus. My previous purchase a USB charger cigarette lighter USB charging and that allowed my Galaxy Nexus coming to offload intensive use (GPS + internet). With this charger, charging is AC charging (as an AC adapter), and the phone is charging even in heavy use. Interesting product for those who also experience this problem. Like previous reviews, I can only confirm the rigidity of the cable, but once used a few times, sometimes to soften and is of suitable length.
