Why not? The quality of the electrons coming out of an alternative charger are the same as those coming from an original one. My home-made charger may not provide the full 2A, but that's not a problem either. I don't see what I would have gained if I had invested $29 more on it.
And by recycling an old phone charger I reduced my global footprint compared to buying a new one.
If I could have bought an equal e-Reader for $10, I wouldn't have hesitated.
