Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Best Selling in Chargers & Sync Cables
I initially bought this just for the power cord - I had purchased an official Microsoft charger for Surface Pro 2 (even though I'm Surface Pro but they're interchangeable) off eBay for $AU25 but was missing the power cord and hoped this cheapie would replace it - it did. The power cord fits into the official chargers and works in Australian sockets just fine. I also used just this whole package to charge (with no MS components). For the price I'd say it's pretty good. It's not as easy to plug it in to the side of the tablet as the original MS chargers, but it does the job. Also, I've seen reports on eBay that cheap generic ones can disable the touch screen and sometimes even the touchpad on the keyboard while charging - so far I've not had EITHER of those problems using this cheaper generic model. I'd even recommend giving it a try for your sole Surface charger if you can't find (or don't want to find) a second hand official MS one. Another thing you could try if it gives you problems is to buy this (or one of the generic car chargers etc) off ebay.....anything to just get the plug that goes directly into the tablet. You could then carefully splice open the cable, and replace the plug that has stopped working on your old official MS charger, solder the wires together and presto - you should in theory have an official MS charger adaptor/box but with a new working plug into your tablet (there are tutorials online to attempt this). So I've got two backup chargers now for less than 50 bucks! I'll use the second hand official MS one until the plug stops working as the connection wires at the plug get too bent (as they do... design flaw. This is my third charger now) then I've always got this unit as another backup!Read full review
