Lumia 920 - decent car charger?

[mmarksx19]

Hi all,

I'm fed up of my 920 running flat in the car streaming bluetooth music and running sat nav. I have a 'generic' car charger but it doesn't even show it is charging - plugging in the mains charger at home works fine but doesn't help when my battery runs out in the middle of the night in some town I've never been to.

I'm assuming my car charger just isn't meaty enough. Any recommendations for one that will keep the 920 charged even with sat nav running. Preferably in the UK so I don't pay silly postage or wait weeks.

Thanks all!

I use this with my 920: Nokia Wireless Charging NFC Car Holder CR-201 :: MobileFun.com The clamping mechanism in my first one broke inside of a week, but the replacement they sent me at no charge has been working great for about 6 months now. I'm very happy with it! It was expensive but well worth it in my opinion.

I use the DC-20, got it for a tenner off eBay. Charges quite slowly if you have everything on full blast (satnav, BT, music, etc) but you won't lose charge at all.

Just make sure you end up using the micro usb cable that comes with the pack. I hate twisty cables but none of my other cables (even got one that does charge only, no data) can match the charging speed of the supplied one in the pack. Must be some chip in the DC20 checking to see if it's the original cable...
