I have been looking around ebay for awhile for a REAL wall charger for the iphone. I want to pay around $6-10 for a charger, or charger+cable combo. I have attempted one go-around with this, and bought a $1.99 from china, not realizing it was a knockoff (very stupid of me). I tested it on a crappy ipod mini I had, and the charger buzzed and fried my ipod. I want a genuine apple brand charger, small form factor, and inexpensive. I really don't feel like paying $20-$30 for the apple charger, especially when I'm looking to buy 3-4 for my family. Thanks for all advice given.
 
Try monoprice but they're not Apple. You want Apple you pay Apple's price.
 
I love monoprice, but they don't carry any USB wall chargers. It was the first place I looked. Weird. Also, monprice has had to pull all their usb to dock connectors because Apple was getting mad. Hmm.
 
That's great, it looks like it comes in black as well. Thanks, I'm surprised I didn't find those before. Wall Power to USB Converter.
