Car Chargers? (official thread)

[Velocity]

I'm looking for a good car charger that I can use while playing music that doesn't have feedback through the audio. Right now the one I have from Radio Shack has a low whine in the background of the music when its plugged in.

A big thread on android forums about these. Lots of people have this one and they're quite content.

I know the link is to Fascinate forums, but it works well on my G2.

I see this is now available:

Has anyone tried it while listening to audio?

I want to be able to use a charger on frequent long road trips (7+ hours) and have my GPS on while playing Google Listen without a high pitched whine over the radio. "Barely noticeable" is not acceptable.

I bought a an aux cable with a ground loop isolator built in. Works like a charm. It's made by Griffen (Best Buy brand).

Just a follow up on this, after extensive testing and multiple trips to various electronics stores, I finally found the perfect device.

Kensington makes a Noise-Reducing AUX Audio Cable that does not require any adapters and is extremely well built. Here's a link to the product page:
Newegg.com - Kensington K39203US Black Noise-Reducing AUX Audio Cable

I would imagine that this is something many people would want to buy and I am surprised it's not sold on Android Central. Thanks for everyone's help

From my days as a road warrior with my G1, this worked fantastic from ProClips. Not a cheap option but well worth it IMO for perfect mounting and no performance probs. Plan to do same for this G2 I'm getting but have not yet done so.

Also note, in the past, I had a problem with some whining and static that ended up being my audio cord (running from headphone output to my car's AUX input). Turned out to be the wire going bad so remember you get what you pay for on the audio hookups.)
