Dock Extender 30pin Extension Adapter Cable for Apple iPad2 iPhone 4 3G iPod -Black

Works fine as connector extender for iPod nano 4th gen
I got this adapter to use with an older generation iPod nano because for my original Bose SoundDock and another docking speaker I own the iPod 30-pin connector was no longer making a good connection. This seems to really help with that issue. It adds a bit of bulk and a lot of height to the nano, but I'm satisfied. Durability so far (a couple of months) doesn't seem to be an issue. It's sometimes a little hard to attach to a dock connector because the female side is off-center toward the back edge of the adapter. Having my old tech that was a big investment at the time continue to work is a good thing!

A little too big
I have an Apple iPhone 3GS in an Otterbox Defender case. I have been unable to insert the phone into any dock without removing the case, so I don't utilize the dock I have for my phone and instead plug it directly into a cable. I just purchased a new car that has iPhone integration and the cable does not plug into the phone when it is in the Otterbox. While this attachment does allow me to plug the phone into the car cable without removing it from the case, I would not recommend trying to insert the phone into the dock. The adapter sticks out fairly far and adjusts the center of gravity of the phone. The phone stands up out of the dock quite a bit and I am afraid of damage to the phone port due to the weight of the phone. So, it does accomplish my primary goal of utilizing the car cable. It does not allow me to safely use the dock stand.

Exactly What I Needed At a Great Price!
Like many others I'm sure, I have a variety of iPhone docking stations and a variety of iPhone cases. Trouble is, they rarely play nice together. This product solves that problem for barely a few bucks! I bought three of these, installed them in three different docking stations and I now can use virtually any case with my phone and still charge it and/or play tunes through the docking station. I will buy again from these guys for sure!TIP: No matter how good an extension adapter is, you will likely find it coming out with the phone every-time you remove the phone from the dock. This is not a knock on this particular brand, it is simply a fact with adapters. MY SOLUTION: take a couple drops of Gorilla Glue and put it around the docking station where the adapter will touch it. Plug the adapter in, let it dry for a while, and afterwards you have a permanently extended docking station!

Dock extender
The price was right and worked for great what it was ordered for. I ordered four and gave away three to my friends. I will most likely order more. If you have a iPhone 4/4S and it is in a protective case, this is what you need to extend your docking station enough to make a good fit without having to remove your case. I used this with a lifeproof case on a Sony Docking station.

Seemed fine on the iPhone 4S
Item took 5 weeks to get here. Oddly another item shipping from China took only 3 weeks.It does not dock well into my iPhone 3G for some reason. Seemed fine on the iPhone 4S.I conclude that it may not be a good practice to use it in & out of the iDevice daily because of the insertion difficulty. I however bought it to stay permanently in an iPhone 3G that has a almost-broken connector but am going to buy a case instead that a phone docks into.

Just what I was looking for
I have an Otterbox case on my iPhone 4S. I could not use my iPhone dock for my stereo or the FM transmitter in my wifes car. These were a great deal and work nicely. They do make the phone sit a little far from the actual item they are connecting to but can't really complain about the 3/4 inch.

Apple Extension Adapter
I needed this adapter after putting the OtterBox Armor phone case on my I Phone - I was unable to plug in my Car adapter because the new phone case being larger. I searched everywhere for an Extender and was unsuccessful. I should have checked on AMAZON first and from now on will do that....you can find everything here!!!This Adapter was reasonably priced and although the estimated date of arrival seemed a really LONG time to wait. The package arrived a week before the estimate given and this Adapter works great. I am a Happy Customer!!

Great product for phone with case
I recently bought an iDapt 4 charging dock that holds 3 phones/items at once (and an additional USB port/charger that makes 4). I have 2 micro usb adapters installed for mine and my wife's android phones and an iPhone connector (I have it because its my work phone). With the Otterbox Defender (the big one) case on my iPhone it wouldn't connect to the charger dock, so I bought this extender and it works perfectly. Fits through the case and allows me to dock my phone at night without removing my case. Well worth the couple bucks it cost.
