American International Car Audio Accessories

Just returned from an international trip with it. Love it! Even the American Airlines baggage handler commented on how nice and sturdy it looked.

I had my first Porta Brace back in 2003. I have rated it 5-stars in the past. I can't help but praise only the durability and versatile use of their bags and cases. In my recent rentals of HD cameras, they are all using Porta Brace cases. I am not surprise anymore. The rental package includes all the accessories to the camera, charger, extra batteries, on-camera lights, wireless audio, zoom microphone, audio cables, extra tapes, manual, tripod accessories, they all fit perfectly in the case. It's like I throw everything in the case and I still safely find a spot in the case. Granted that the shoulder strap is wide, soft, comfortable and durable, it get's heavy at times but it feels solid to lug around. This CAR-3 Cargo Case did just that. It has now become my everyday case to carry around my camera and accessories. It has become a single item in my checklist since when I open the bag, I already memorized what item should be in the certain pocket or position inside. When I pack-up my staff in the field, it is the same case, I check the pockets to make sure that I am not leaving from the location without any accessories left behind. I give Porta Brace CAR-3 Cargo Case 5-Star rating for overall versatility, durability, and practical everyday use.

This is a good cheap charger. Even comes with international plug!! Also a car charger.

Works great at great price and it has the features of car charger, and international power

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is perfect is my sons car!.it a 2009 Nissan Altima His car doesn’t have the USB ports. It does has the AUX port. He wasn’t able to charge his phone but was able to play music. Using a adapter in the lighter to has USB ports, he plugs the Belkin International - 3.5 mm Audio + Charge RockStarinto tha USB port on the adapter. Then plugs an AUX wire from his car AUX port to the Belkin International - 3.5 mm Audio + Charge RockStar. Then plugs the Belkin International - 3.5 mm Audio + Charge RockStar into his IPhone. His music plays in his car, he charges his phone at the same time, and still can use his phone for calls which go to his car speakers. He was so frustrated not being able to charge his phone while driving & play music at the same time. This is great and works perfectly. It’s very small an compact so it doesn’t take up any space on the car console.

I got this charger to charge my camera. In the package I also got another international plug and a car charger with wire. I was impressed. The charger charged the camera really quickly. I am very happy with this product.

So far, it has done well with several car trips. As you can see, it resembles a conventional roller luggage. So it has not attract unwanted attention by shouting: I have valuable lenses and cameras inside. The security features are a plus -- 3 locks total. But a determined person whose intentions are not so pure should be able to overcome these locks with sufficient time and planning/tools. As for international travel outside the U.S., its weight may require some planning. I would plan to remove lenses and other contents and put them in other carryon bags or a jacket/vest, so the bag remains under weight limits, such as 10 kg. As for stowing it in the overhead compartment, it might be challenging for a more petit/petite person to hoist it up. The handle for rolling seems fine so far, despite feeling wobbly. (I can understand why others have commented that the handle is the weakest link.) As for capacity, it's good. The challenge is to not to exceed weight limits for certain international flights.

I bought this specifically for our international trip, as were renting a car and needed the familiarity of our phone for GPS. It’s a solid piece, like most PD products, machined at a high degree of quality. Feels bullet proof. Easily fit the vent of the Peugeot we rented and served its purpose well. I looked at cheaper options, but at the end of the day, invested in PD due to the track record.

I purchased this to replace the older American Audio ELS-15 I own and the upgrade in sound quality is substantial. Add in the bonus of the wireless handheld and you can't beat this deal.

Used to connect devices to the car audio input.
