Charging Converter 30 Pin Pass Through Adapter XT12V5 Compatible with iPod iPhone iPad Car Vehicle

Great working part

The device connection is loose and the depth of the metal plug too short to engage correctly. The micro usb charging port fails to charge consistently. I would return the unit but cannot because I removed some of the plastic around the metal plug hoping deeper engagement would resolve the connection and charging issues. After my mod the connection is improved but still not great and the inconsistent charging is still an issue. After compressing the tip with pliers to increase contact pressure the device stays connected better and charges, albeit at a slow rate. If the device came to me as it now is after my mods is I would have rated it a 3 because at least now it minimally functions for what I need.

Worked perfectly with my bovee1000. Some cars need this others don't. Glad it's available

I have a 2008 Mercedes-Benz with the 30 pin iPod adapter. I bought an Apple 30-pin to Lightning adapter, which would let me use a newer iPhone/iPod with the factory stereo. Unfortunately, while the music worked, the phone did not charge.This little device solved that problem. I placed it between the 30-pin car adapter and the Apple 30-pin to Lightning adapter and now the phone charges while playing music.

Performed as intended for a few weeks, then stopped working. Connectors do not click in place which may be part of the problem. Also did not work after a Siri command. The in-dash integration with my 2010 XTerra was clunky at best, so I decided a lightning splitter with power and aux cable inputs [Belkin Lightning to 3.5mm Audio Cable + Audio Charger Splitter] was a better option.

I have an old Pioneer AVIC N3 car stereo with the Apple iPhone integration. It was built in the day when iPhones had a 30-pin connector. I've long since upgraded my phone and got an Apple 30-pin to lightning adapter, which works fine except for one thing: it doesn't charge the phone. Not normally a big deal, except on long trips when the phone dies. This solves the problem. 30-pin cable to Charging Converter to 30-pin-to-lightning adapter. Micro USB to USB cable plugged into the side of the Charge Converter, and into a USB port on the center console. Sounds convoluted, but all the cabling is tucked away except for the lightning cable. I retain all control and audio functions of the iPhone, and now it charges while it plays. It's a little pricey for what it is, but it solved a problem that's been bugging me for years.

I have a 2008 Mercedes e350 with a 30 pin AUX connector in the glove box. I wanted to connect a new blue tooth device to it, but it required power, so this unit was essential. Now I can stream Amazon Prime music from my iPhone 11 through my car’s AUX!

Bad connection translate to bad sound quality. On and off charging of my ipod. Do not recommend.
