iPod Hack: Make an USB iPod Charger
Posted on October 16th, 2006 by ReviewZine.com
Need a new iPod charger? Here’s a little project for you where you can turn an old cellphone charger into an USB iPod charger. Just make sure that you are outputting 5V before charging your iPod with your new charger.
“Solution: Take one of my old cell phone chargers, a Sony-Ericsson phone that I no longer use. I check the output voltage, 5.1V with 450mA. Looks good. I checked the USB specs and I believe it’s well within the acceptable range.”
