  • what about Amps??????

    Does it stops increasing when voltage stops or it maintains climbing? and also plz somebody tell me the difference between zener diodes and voltage regulators like this one in video. sorry for my poor english and if i ask something stupid, i'm not competent in electronics i'm just curious.

    thnx ahead

  • what about HTC desire s?

  • how you manage to get the constant 6 volt ?

  • The guys over at ladyada (dot) net dismantled an iPhone charger so they could make their Mintyboost (a battery-powered USB charger) work with some iPhones. Turns out you have to have a voltage applied to the data pins, and also that the specific voltage effects how much current the iPhone will draw. I think they got the Mintyboost to work with iPhone 3G. You should check out the site :)

  • omg you tested voltage without load... that's not a fair test

  • cool Video I bought one identical

  • I think I know why the charge is stay around 6V. The LED clamped the voltage to no more than 7V. The LED acts as shunt when it is forward conducting.

  • I have the same charger and I solved the problem with iphone and ipod charging a very funny way. I simply charge an external battery with the dynamo and an external battery charges an iphone.

  • probably has a 7v capacitor on the circuit board someone good with elec could make it better maybe

  • where did you obtain the crank ( spinning thingy )

  • @LINKROCKZYOU dealextreme (dot) com

  • how mutch watts does it give out??

  • why are you adding the 5V regulator?

  • @jamesgraysonn because it is giving out 6 volts, your supposed to have 5 with usb.

  • use a better usb cord??

    idk just how the usb 3.0 can give out more power.

  • @spedknot usb 3.0 has 8 wires instead of 4 like usb 2.0 You can see the 4 metal prongs and 4 more metal prongs behind the front ones when you look inside of the usb 3.0 cable.

  • whats the current it cam deliver??

  • isnt their a USB port? just plug the iPhone into there
