What can I say? This charger charges. Great for traveling when you may not have easy access to a computer and kind of nice even when at home and you don't want your player dangling from your computer which has a tendency to go into sleep mode.

... is BAD !
Nowhere I looked - when researching if I could use the adapter e.g. overseas -
does it state the range of the input voltage for the adapter !
This is the same on Creative's AND on Amazon's websites.
I would expect this info as part of the specification.

Answer - found on the hard to read mini label on the adapter :
Input : 100 - 240 VAC 50-60 Hz, Max 0.4 A, Output : 5 VDC 2.4A

I bought this to replace the AC charger that came with my 60 GB Vision W. The original one never worked and by the time I got around to dealing with it (through Creative) it was way too late. Buggers. You'd think that spending nearly $400 for the Vision W it would have a working AC adapter. I mean, how complicated are they? Anyway, the one I ordered through Amazon works great, decent price (sharp drop from original price sheesh!)

Would get 5 stars if smaller but otherwise does the job giving a quick charge from a regular outlet vs. USB on computer.

This is a fine product. It does what it is supposed to do. My zen charged in less than two hours. I had tried other usb chargers, even ones that said that they worked with Creative Zen products, and they didn't work. Watch out - just because something says that it FITS the Zen doesn't mean that it actually works with it.

I almost sent it back, however, out of my own ignorance. When the product arrived, there was a white plastic cover over the prongs. It is the same type of plastic that the product is made out of, and it blends very smoothly into the product. It is also firmly attached. It seems like the product arrives with big white plastic prongs that are obviously not going to work in the United States. In fact, it looks just like the black and white drawing of the Chinese plugs in the paperwork that arrives with the adapter. So I wrote the company, asking for an exchange. I got a reply back (within 24 hours) saying, "no, you got the right adapter. Just take off the cover, idiot." OK, they didn't really call me an idiot. I just felt like one. But, low and behold, the prong cover actually does come off and now I love my Zen even more than before.
