I haven't tried the various power options yet, but everything in the mini usb retractable cable is nice and the VGA cable is neatly done and finished. So far very happy. :approve: :approve: :approve:

Thanks for your review:approve:

I just updated some demo on the OP. Let me know if those explain everything,

Since LCD TV is so popular, I think converter box is useless anyway:approve:

I though this had s-video !!! ouch I dont like vga , cause most tv and car tv are s=video input

Wow! Fast shipping! I ordered the cable Friday night, and it was in my mailbox on Monday! Nice! :approve:

As to the cable itself, I can only echo what has already been said: The quality and construction of the cable are superb. All connections fit securely, and the cable works wonderfully. It is, in my opinion, the most full-featured Axim cable on the market, as it is the only one I know of that provides sync + 2 different charging connectors + VGA output all in one cable. I love this cable. You have done a superb job, Chrismax! Keep up the good work! :approve: :approve:

i dont get it, a cheapo usb cable with wall outlet and car adapter i bought on ebay charges with the screen on letting me use it. why is that such a big deal with your cables that it can be done that way?

Enragin_Angel · 03-05-07, 11:34 PM

jeremy0203: Because chrismax also includes a VGA cable to display your Axim on a HDTV. The old model of chrismax's cable didn't allow usb charging while it the Axim was on, but now it does. I personally owned the previous version chrismax made and it works great and it was much cheaper than what everyone else was selling it for. I bought two VGA cables, one from chrismax and one from someone else and I prefer chrismax's version because it is compact and I have the option of attaching the AC or USB cables. I take the cables I need so I don't have to carry extra stuff around.

I'd Just like to say that,

I bought one of these and it made it all the way to me up here in Finland.
It arrived safe and sound yesterday, nicely packaged and chrismax had supplied me with tracking details so that I was able to check where it was.

I plugged it in, Hit Mirror and was smiling instantly.:) I was happily watching movies all evening on my big screen.

What I didn't realise when I bought it was that it works as a Sync cable as well. Which means I don't have to lug the cradle around with me or buy an extra sync cable.

It charges perfectly Via the USB or the normal AC plug.

Wonderful bit of kit!!!

Works perfectly!!!

Great service!!!!

Thanks chrismax, you have saved me a lot move money.:approve: :approve: :approve:

I've just received mine yesterday and it worked perfectly as well:approve:

Just one question: You can sync with the accompanying USB cable while powered by the other power plug-in on the Axim connector simultaneously, correct? I have a high current car charger with the round tip to do the powering up. This way, the cradle can be bypassed entirely while traveling. I believe the USB current output from the laptop/PC is insufficient to do charging AND displaying on the X51V at the same time?

Too bad there is no unobtrusive (non brick sized) video converter that convert VGA to either composite or S-video :rolling:

Now happy camper has to go play with his very portable movie player with the new VGA cable

I just received my v4 cable today. Very fast shipping :D~

I'm at work so I can't test it out yet, but if it was anything like the v3 cable, it should be great.

I got the v3 cable, v4 cable and the vga->s-video/composite connector and I've been satisfied with all the products I got from chrismax.

I tested the cable out and compared it to the v3 cable. The v4 cable is definitely worth it over the v3.

sirpott · 03-15-07, 08:01 AM

hmm can u plz tell me where to get the vga -> composite converter ?
i only seen a picture on the ebay link but cant find where to get it.
plz help me out

You are correct in both points: You can sync with the USB cable while the round-tip adapter is plugged in, and the USB current output from a PC/laptop is NOT sufficient to charge the battery while the x51v is turned on.

just curious if with this cable you can use the vga and the two connectors all at once. When I saw this cable, I instantly had a image pop in my head showing the axim connected to a touch screen lcd in my car. A instant carputer. I will use the vga for the monitor, the mini usb for the touch screen capability and the dc in for power. I wonder if touch screen monitors work off of usb for the touch capability. Also I was wondering if you ever consider tapping into audio from this same port. It would be awesome to be able to hear sound from the axim through this port, so I can hook up to car stereo. I really dont want to use the headphone jack. I rather everything connected through one wire. I would hardwire everything. IS this wire still avaible? I check ebay and you dont have any in your store. Also where can I get one, how much, and where can I get the dc in connection.
