iPhone 5 Car Charging + mount

Ekim · 26 Apr 2013 at 10:58

I am hiring a car next weekend and I am looking for a way to charge my iPhone 5 in the car.

Been looking at this
http://www.belkin.com/uk/null-Belkin/p/P-F8Z689?q=::devicePath:/Device/IPHONE

But according to Belkin it isn't compatible with iPhone 5 - I don't know however if they are only saying this due to the fact it comes with an 32pin iPhone cable. If I supplied my own lightning cable would it work fine? After all, this looks identical but just comes with a lightning cable

Also what do people recommend in regards to a mount. Want something in the £10 mark.

eBay? You'll be able to pick up all that for < £5.

I have one from eBay, think it was £3.99 and does the job perfectly.

I picked one up from ebay before and it broke pretty quickly. Keen to get something I can be confident will work as soon as I get in the car. As I am hiring the car I don't have any chance to test it before I get the car.

Does anyone make a FM transmitter/charger for the iphone 5 yet?
Could really do with one for the car, radio just isn't good enough any more!
