I bought a generic iPod charger at a car accessory shop for about £2,
works like a charm. This specific one doesn't have a USB cable, but it
takes a normal FR cable. They probably overcharged me even at that
price-point...

Hi all,
After talking with Christoph from Pulster we thought I'd share my car
holder solution to everyone :)
Attached you can find the photos of my car holder.
Basically, the whole thing did only cost me 5€ (~3 USD), but I had to
modify it slightly for the FR (explanation bellow).
I bought it
The problem I had was that the FR has it's buttons and USB port
at the bottom and the holder comes designed to hold the mobile
at the bottom ;)
It has two pieces: One that attaches to the car, and the other
which
holds the mobile.

Try forcing it to 500ma using one of the battery.py scripts on the wiki.
I used a car charger yesterday (650ma) that didnt even show as plugged

useless for jump starting/trickle charging as the phone must be up to
turn it on - as I
Citando Rui Miguel Silva Seabra r...@1407.org:
Shouldn't it have to be 2A ?
Why should it? If the FR can charge at 3 different rates (100, 500,
1000mA), any charger that can give 500 or 1000mA is good enough... it
all depends on how much time you want to wait for a charge... ;)
