Which iGo tip for Kindle
Hi

Can anyone tell me which iGO tip I need for the latest Kindle there are 2, but I am not sure which one I need, there is the A00 and the A97, they seem very hard to get hold of here in the UK have tried several of the Maplins stores and they dont have any stock Amazon has one of them but I want to make sure that its the right one before I purchase.

Many Thanks
Mollie

It looks like, from the iGo tip finding pages, that A97 is the one for the current Kindles. A00 was for the Kindle 1.

Yes, A97 (micro USB) is the number on the tip I use.

Having just looked that up, I can see why!

I'd not heard of iGo as a power supply before. Is this a battery pack you have to power various gadgets? The tips seem almost as dear as some battery packs. What's your intended use scenario? It may be easier just to get an alternative device.

The iGo chargers (of various sorts, some have wall plugs, some have car adapters, but all use the same interchangeable tips) are nice because you have the one charger, and different tips for all the different gadgets. I have a tip for my K1, and a tip for my iPod, and the charger works in the car, with a nice retractable reel for the cables.

A97 is the one I will look out for, I think Amazon had one left will have to check, Thats why I like the iGo charger you just have the one adapter with various tips for all your devices ideal for holidays especially with the grandchildren taking their nintendo ds, ipod, blackberry,and the book readers etc The tips are expensive thats why I wanted to make sure that I bought the correct one
