This product answered my need to power my A6 off my plane's electrical supply.

  • By JC Finch from Sturgis, Michigan on Friday, April 13, 2007
  • Pros: Simple to use, does the job.
  • Cons: The voltage conversion circuitry is in the male 12VDC plug. Cannot cut plug to
  • Review: When I purchased my A6 I did not realize it could not be powered off "straight" 12VDC. Then I learned the Icom adaptor was more than I wanted to pay. This product offered a reasonable alternative.

  • Pros: works well .
  • Cons: wont use as a primary charger
  • Review: Works quite well.We wont know how well utill we have to replace the battery.These batteries should last a long time unless they are abused by a bad battery charger that allows them to overheat.   I prefer to charge my Icom with the factory charger and only use the aux chargers when absolutley necessary. cs

Cigarette lighter cable

Works as advertised, but...

  • By Michael from Bellbrook OH USA on Tuesday, May 17, 2016
  • Pros: Works well for charging the battery.
  • Cons: battery must be installed to use this cord. my previous radio did not require the battery to use the cigarette lighter cord.
  • Review: This cord works in conjunction with the battery, I found that my preference in my little Experimental is to use an alternate product, an aftermarket battery eliminator that also uses a cigarette lighter cord, also. So, without the battery, I can flip the radio switch off on my panel and do not need to also turn the radio off on the radio. No risk inworks for charging the battery accidentally leaving the radio on and killing the battery.
