Quite frankly I don't recommend either of them because they both look like cheap crap and will probably fall apart in short order.

The Sedio Hi-Output wall charger NOT working here...after shaving the connector I get the on/off on/off that others are getting!

Bell 1000ma usb car charger confirmed as NOT WORKING, even a shorting pins , it will charge the pre but will not power the touchstone.

I can confirm that as well. The Bell no name charger looks a lot like a motorola one.

I have just bought the Motorola SPN5400A (or P513, is the same).
On my Renault Scenic it does the on/off dance with my TS.

Now I don't know if it is better to buy the palm car charger or buy a car inverter.

I have the Palm car charger 3453WW as well. I'm getting the on/off charging problem too.

It might be the Touchstone back on the Pre. The metal contacts may be loose or not contacting the battery contacts correctly. You should be able to fix it.

I have more info on the 3453WW charger with the TS. I noticed that it worked fine with the ignition on and the car in park. But whenever I hit my brakes, I heard the telltale "ding-dong". I haven't measured it yet, but there must be a small drop in voltage that the car charger isn't regulating too well. I may try one of the other chargers listed in this thread. I'll also try the 3453WW charger in my wife's car to see if that makes a difference.

For those having on/off problems with a charger listed on the "Working" list, please post your car make and model along with the year. if you haven't already try it in another car.

marke5860 · 11/29/2009, 03:02 PM

My car is a 2001 Lexus IS300.

I tried it in our 2009 Toyota Highlander and my parents 2005 Chrysler minivan without any problems. Must be something specific to my car. I'll try checking with a voltmeter to see if I can see anything.

I receive a Motorola H17 Bluetooth earpiece for Christmas. It comes with a MicroUSB power adapter that I was hoping would work with the Touchstone.

The adapter fits in the Touchstone, but does the On/OFF dance when connected. This makes sense since the adapter only outputs 550mA.

The adapter does work, however, when directly connected to the Pre.

Did a search and didn't find the HTC Touch HD charger listed but it worked perfectly for me with the original Palm USB cable going between it and the TS. If you've not seen one they're basically the same idea as the Palm charger i.e. you get a plug which takes a separate USB cable.

Just shaved down the Verizon universal wall charger ($29.99) and the phone is charging on the touchstone. It's the one that says "fits most micro usb charging ports" and is manufactured by Xentris Wireless!

phonetroubles · 03/18/2010, 02:50 PM

i lied, its actually DISCHARGING my phone somehow!
