AC/Car adators for charging Sansa Clip

MP3 players Sansa Clip | Clip+
1

As I take my Sansa Clip on trips without a computer easily accessed. (I would probably have to beg someone to charge my player on their computer). Is there an AC adaptor/car adaptor for the Clip. The website is confusing as the product shown is a 30 pin adaptor. Also I have a Garmin NUVI 350 GPS which has the same size plugs as the Sansa Clip. Can I use these to charge the Sansa or will it fry it?

thanks

The Clip has a standard Mini-B USB jack (5V). So, check the specs on any charger. See here for more info:

Thanks for the reply.

The A/C adaptor of the Garmin GPS output is 5V–1a. Still unsure if this will fry the clip.

In that thread, sansafix says the Clip regulates current so apparently the 1A is okay.

I use that charger for my Sansa Clip.  No problems so far (6 or 7 charges).

I use a Motorola AC Power Supply

Model: FMP5202A

Output: 5V 850mA

It was my friends cellphone charger then she gave it to me since she purchased a new phone.

It works fine.

Thanks for all the replies and help. The consensus is that if it is mini USB a/c adaptor and is 5v it wont fry. I’ll give it a try.
