Yes, with all the other batteries.
There might be one small one left.

Were, ware, wear, where - they're all words in their own right there.

Mr.Crinklewood · 22-02-2011 01:52PM

Four or five left in Rathmines at €3.95

theavenger · 22-02-2011 04:34PM

Yeah they are priced on shelf at €3.95, there are two types large and small both the same price only difference being that the large works with iPods and iPhones . Must have restocked when I left the store. They are located in the middle isle opposite the checkouts.

Dont seem to work with recent Blackberrys, get unsupported device warning. Typical. Seem to be ok with some older ones.

All the rechargeable ones work fine with my Blackberry - a Torch 9800 which is close to be the latest model. I suggest that you try a different cable maybe ?

There were several of the 2-in-1, Pocket, and Instant models priced at €3.95 in the Merrion Centre in Dublin yesterday evening. I got one of the 2-in-1 and it scanned at €3.95, too.

dave oc · 23-02-2011 04:08PM

Tesco Phisborough had a good few of each type (now -1 of the 2n1 charger )

Vego · 23-02-2011 05:12PM

someone forgot to carry the decimal place

Cant believe this is still going on

Picked up the last one in Tesco Wexford. On display for €3.95.

Hollybobkins · 23-02-2011 07:52PM

Picked up one on these today in Tesco Monaghan at € 3.95. Quite a few left. Sorry now I did not take another one.

iknorr · 23-02-2011 08:05PM

i wonder are tesco just flogging them off asap due to the standardisation of the charging port on mobile phones. Most phones are now being sold with micro usb .

the chargers are mini usb.

Over the run of this "mistake" / savage bargain iv bought 10 of the 2 in 1s for friends and family . 3 for myself though.

I'd doubt it.

It has a standard USB out as well as the mini, so very easy to pick up a cable to match pretty much any device (there are a handful of devices where it isn't quite powerful enough to charge, but it's the exception rather than the rule).

The fact that no other supplier is able to get near that price and that some Tesco stores seem to have upped the price make it all very odd. That, and the fact that if it is a mistake its been running for a heck of a long time.

I got one of these from ebay and it works really well so far

iknorr · 23-02-2011 11:22PM

Pyro Boy: iv got an adapter just like that also for use with my dhd.

PaulPinnacle: i understand about the any usb cable but there is a new version of the 2 in 1 charger out that has been available for 3 /4 /5 months the micro usb connection.

i still find it hard to believe that it is a price mistake.

I think I got the last 2-in-1 there last night. Several of the others available.

A stack of these back in stock in wilton, cork. Case anyone still wants one

Amalgam · 21-04-2011 04:19AM

If someone wants to use the full USB out, to Micro USB, these work a treat as well.
