Any suggestions on a portable charger for an iPhone 4?
Q. I just got an iPhone 4 and am about to go to college. I'm looking for a portable iPhone charger just in case my phone were to die. Any suggestions on ones you might already use or that you've heard are good?

A. Stitchway UltraPower 1900 mAh (BLACK) Backup Battery Charger WORKS FOR iPHONE 4 and 4G. Also iPhone 3GS, 3G, 2G, iTOUCH, iPod. If your apple device depletes its battery early in the day then this is a âmust haveâ accessory for you. You plug the handy, light weight (LESS THAN 2 OUNCES), portable STITCHWAY iPHONE BATTERY BOOSTER into the input port of the phone and you get a rapid total recharge.

What would cause my phone charger to burn?
Q. I plugged my iPhone charger in last night and charged my phone. Tonight as I went to bed I heard a sizzling noise. It was the adapter end ( end that adapts to phone) of my charger burning. Nothing else is in the outlet. What would cause this?

A. Sounds like the charger has been used and abused enough that the wiring or connections have shorted out. Your question is unclear as to where exactly the burning took place - if at the connection between the wire and the dock connector, the cable probably got pinched or bent badly at this point and the conductors inside it have gotten broken and are touching. If inside the connector body itself, it's possible something has been jammed in it and caused the tiny pins to touch one another.

Phone adapters are very resilient, so it probably was of no harm to you. You could probably even splice a new end onto it and the charger might be fine. But in the case of the iPhone, there's so many pins that it might be more trouble than it's worth.

To clear up a little confusion here: No, phone chargers do NOT have high voltage on them. Typically it's around ~5V, which is very small. However, in the case of smartphones, the current is very high (2 amps or possibly more).
