They are getting stuck. It is not a problem with the cable, but with the DS. There is definitely a problem with some Nintendo DS power plugs. I just bought one and have been checking the online forums.
It was wonderful for her, and me. And, with five kids, this is a real blessing.
Can't go wrong with this one. A smart 'after thought' and a wonderful mother's helper.
The additional UBS cord allows her to plug in anywhere, and the 6ft car charger has ample cord to reach from the 2nd or third row seat. It is compatable with her older Game Boy, as well.
I purchased this for my daugter's DS after one too many long distant car rides when the DS went dead. It comes with everything she needs to keep playing on the road, and keep the chaos in the car down to a minuim.
I don't depend on the DS for around town driving, but when we are traveling three hours or more, this travel kit is a must have for the portable game families.
So stuck that we thought it was locked in place and we had to press on something to get it out. It was stuck. I was so afraid I would break the DS, I didn't want to try it, but finally my boyfriend took a pair of pliers and managed to get it out. I charged the DS on the way home and everything was fine. DO NOT BUY. I mean, seriously stuck.
My DS is fine, but I will NEVER use that adapter again. I got my DS Lite today and picked up this travel pack for it as well. until I went to remove the car adapter. We couldn't figure out it for the longest time, even after having my dad, a mechanical engineer, examine it-- the best suggestion he could offer was just to pull incredibly hard.
Mine got stuck as well.called the company (Pelican) and they wanted me to ship it back to them.I played with it and finally got it unstuck.had to pull really hard.now I am scared to try it again.useless.
I give it a four b/c it's a car charger & a usb charger & b/c of the bright flashlight keychain. I've charged it in a car and it works fine. I haven't encountered any problems with it and I think it's a pretty good deal considering that it's a multi-pack and allows you to charge it both in a CAR and by USB. But then again, I don't use this one regularly as a main charger (I use the wall plug one for that). I haven't used the charger much, but I agree with one of the reviewers that there is this extra bonus flashlight that is amazingly bright. It's literally a big flashlight in one little keychain.But aside from that, I have the regular DS (the big one) and it works fine with the big one. The cable is not too short so you can play while you're charging it in the car or on a laptop.
