I tried ordering one of those but Ectaco is out of stock. It's just as well because they were going to charge me $14 to ship it. I canceled my order.

The A/C charger that came with my Libre shows output of 5 volts and 1000 milli amps (1 amp). Using Google I have determined that it doesn't matter whether the output amperage of the charger is greater than what the device needs as the device "pulls" as many amps as it needs. However, amperage outputs lower than needed by the device will extend its charging time. I haven't been able to find the voltage and amperage specifications on any of these chargers by searching on the net. The two mini USB car chargers I have for other devices do not have any specifications printed on them. I'll have to go to a retailer and see if the electrical specifications are printed on the packages for these chargers.
