Customer Reviews
I ordered the K-Tor Pocket Socket after being without power for three days (snow storm) and finding out that my Eton crank radio could not charge our iPhones (thanks A LOT Apple Not supported). The item was shipped the same day I ordered it and arrived considerably before I expected it and in good shape. The item is well made and it does what it claims to do. I tested it on my iPod 4G; have not on my iPhone 3G yet but see no reason it should not charge that also. Be aware that there is some serious resistance when turning this crank. I found the crank turns quite easily when you start but resistance is felt as soon as the charging process begins. It is not like turning the crank on an Eton radio and you will tire out more quickly than cranking a "doomsday radio". You will want to turn at a consistent rate rather than try charge your device quickly. All in all, a good product and a great feeling to buy something made in America again.
I and my husband love camping and hiking. The problem was to keep our cellphones and cameras charged. All products we tried before could not bring our devices back especially when batteries were completely dead. It was the last our attempt. According description it was exactly what we looked for.
First, the generator arrived in 2 days after we placed an order. It was sort of nice. In nice box with detailed instruction.
Second, it really worked. I could charge my kindle which was completely dead. It took a while, but I did it.
My son could charge his iphone. Also it worked with my portable dvd player. So next summer we will take it for hiking.
Pro: Pocket socket works exactly as it promised, it charges not only cell phones but different devices:)It is small and light.
Contra: the only thing I found inconvenient - the device is a little bit too big for my hands. My hand are very small. But my husband and son had no problems working with it.
Hope my review will help you.
