After
buying a cheap charger for my Kindle Fire HD and realising they just did not
work well together, my fiancé bought me the official Amazon charger for
Christmas. At first, I was reluctant to pay the £17.99 for the product, which
is why I ended up with something that didn’t work. Although Waterstones do now
sell Kindles, the charger is currently only available through Amazon.
Firstly, I
think that this should have been something you get with the purchase of a
Kindle. Being a tablet that does run down the battery quite quickly if not only
using for reading, the USB charger is not adequate enough for my charging
needs. Anyway, this charger comes in a little black box with the Amazon and
Kindle logos on it. Inside the box is the plug, which does not have a cable on
it. This plug is designed to be used with the USB cable provided at the time of
purchase. The USB cable fits into the underneath of the plug, so to not stick
out at all or get in the way. As plugs go, this one looks quite sleek and nice
but then I would hope so for near enough £18.
Amazon
claims that this charger ‘Fully
charges your Kindle Fire or Kindle Fire HD devices in under 4 hours’ and
after having bad experiences so far with chargers, I was sceptical. However,
this charger does exactly what it says it should do which is fantastic. I
sometimes work 13 and a half hour shifts at work and the Kindle battery
definitely does not last that long so I needed something that would charge
quickly so this charger is actually perfect.
Although this is an expensive plug, it is well worth the
money.
