Clever idea: (eg to charge a smartphone while driving) the additional, integrated in the plug USB socket, which can also be covered by an invisible lid when not in use and thus is even then protected from dust.
The bending of the plug at the top, where the cable comes out, does not mean only a more pleasing appearance, but also has other practical benefits:
a) the cable comes out quite side (not is upwards, which indeed often interferes)
b) can be more easily hidden the cable laid in the dashboard
c) the integrated USB socket under the cover is more accessible.
The cable has at the end an angled 90 degrees mini USB connector for power devices (eg for Rollei CarCam DVR110)
Contrary to the description, the cable length is even 3,40 m.
So overall it was ideal and also still very solid processed.
Positives:
- Great Design
- Solid construction
- Additional USB socket in the connector (with cover)
- Angled Mini-USB connector for connection to the device to be supplied
Negatives
I have found nothing, except that the cable may still could be 1 m longer, so it can be laid hidden in large vehicles without any problem in disguise. In my Corolla Verso is sufficient (visible in the dashboard and headliner installed) but with no problems until just behind the rearview mirror.
