Tablet Will this charge a NookTablet?

This says it works with Kindle Fire, but how about a Nook Tablet?

Would I use my proprietary NT cable between the NT and the charger?

I live in fear of running out of reading power!

I think it will charge, but I doubt it has much capacity. I can't see any proper specs, but I'mm guessing it's no better than thi one on eBay for less than half the price:

I don't know how well they work. I'm curious too!

My guess is yes. These multipurpose chargers keep the power pretty low, so they won't blow out the electronics.

I have a car lighter to USB jack that I bought at the drugstore. It's not super fast charging, but it allows me to use my Nook as my MP3 player in my car.

It will charge, but only at a low rate (about .5A). You can only charge at the full rate (1.8A) with the nook charger and cable. And even then it won't fully charge it as the battery of the nook tablet is larger than that of this charger.
