I just ordered 2 much like those from the link in the 'Power' forum. $23.85 for 2 shipped!!! I'm planning on using 2500mAh rechargables. That should be plenty of power!

I just ordered one.  They hit you hard on shipping, the $9.95 price was around $16.50 with the cheapest shipping option.  It looks nicely small compared to the Tekkeon MyPower lithium rechargeable I was planning to use (with the USB adapter they sent me).  I wonder if the voltage is well-regulated enough for the MicroTrack, if you use alkelines or lithium AAs four makes 6V, NiMH gives 5V.

I wonder if there would be a way to use my Valance batteries with this thing. With my power hungry laptop they would give me like 31/2 hours. I would really hate to have them become semi-useless.

I have the 2ndry power port / cigarette connector for the 12v side. If I could get a jb3 cig charger (I think thats at 5v) i cloud hack a USB connector maybe hmm

See my link above. Looks like the same thing. I ordered 2 for $10 each and priority shipping was $3.85 for a whopping total of $23.85!

So would this just recharge the internal battery, or would it power the unit directly?  ???

Just got these 2 I ordered in the mail. Look pretty sturdy and good! Just so you know the box and all packaging info is in Japanese! Only think in Engrish is 'USB'. ;D
