Hey all.

I'm sure it's nothing, but thought I'd run this by you. Prepping for my trip
tomorrow, I took out this cell charger that I bought that fits into the
cigarette lighter to test it out. It came with a USB cable for the older
iPhone so I plugged in the cable for the new iPhone.

It did not seem to work.  As I pull the plug out I smell something burning.
There is a little smoke, but seems more from the plug, not the outlet. And
it was hot to touch. I am assuming the charger is a piece of crap and that
is it.

Is there a chance there could be something wrong with the lighter socket?
What could have caused this other than the charger being crap.

Jeremy & Lola! Smokin'
