I want to keep my kindle going on my samsung Galaxy S4 Blaze for a 20 hour journey (flying). Will this work?

There are several factors you have to consider. First, this little converter can only provide 500mA of output current. If your Galaxy S4 expects to draw around 1A then this is not going to work. Second, the total energy packed in two AA cells (assuming you're using two 2000mAh NiMH cells) is only 5Wh. After conversion loss, this is only enough to boost your phone's internal 3.7V lithium battery by about 1000mAh. So you'll need at least two sets of 2x AA cells just to charge your phone once. It is better to look for a more powerful backup battery pack (with at least 1A output current and capacity of 3000mAh) for your journey. For example, consider Opteka BP-SC4000 Ultra Thin Solar Powered High Capacity Backup Battery and Charger

I don't know about Paperwhite. I have Kindle Fire and it only partially charges it and I run out of battery on long flights even with iGO.

I do not believe so. It requires a modum attached to the router in order to get the signal. I suspect as you travel you can find businesses that have wifi networks you can access, but probably not on the road. Best bet with the Kindle is load it before you go and gets lots of reading or movies download before your trip.

Unless there's an app that runs on Kindle that says it will work with a USB GPS puck, it won't be a simple task. do a Google search for "GPS Navigation on the Kindle Fire" and you'll find a Youtube video of someone who has done it. the trick in the video is that he's using a cellphone as a wifi hotspot to serve up the Google maps. My quick research suggests the Kindle Fire 2 might have built in GPS and solve this need. Unless you want to tinker in your Kindle system, you might want to look for a different solution. Dedicated GPS units are not that expensive any more and they come with built-in maps.

First id see if you can download the wi-drive app. And open it up before going and investing in it. If it opens up and it is trying to search for the wi-drive the app should be working just fine. Also u need to download the files via the USB cord that comes with it from you're computer to the drive. Then you can see pictures or documents on your kindle. And from what I've noticed since I own it there's a separate name for it under the wifi setting so you have to switch from the wifi for you internet to the one for the drive in order to see what's on the drive. The plus is that It can be password protected so not just anyway can see what's on it. First id see if you can download the wi-drive app. And open it up before going and investing in it.

In my experince, this device does not work on most PCs so I would guess it wouldn't work with your Kindle.

you would have to check the maximum output that your kindle would take. more likely than not, since it is a car charger, it produces a charge well below the maximum so it won't zap you kindles battery

Yes. I have had it on mine for about a month and haven't had any issues. It syncs across the other devices that I have(Kindle Fire, Iphone and Laptop) just fine.

I haven't timed it, but I've been using the 2.1A slot for my Fire HD and it has worked great (I can use it while it charges and it will fully charge while I'm doing so). It has worked as good or better than the kindle-specific charger.

If your Kindle operates with a capacitive stylus, this will work fine. Check your Kindle manual for stylus specs.

I have used it with my Kindle Fire in my truck, which is a rough riding, noisy, F350. I don't know if it was charging in that configuration but, the charge lasts for hours. I am still happy with mine.

It should do just fine. It runs at 4V and works with all iOS and android devices. You might not get a full charge on a large tablet, but I get about two charges on my iPhone 5. I picked up a smaller capacity model by Anker for a trip to Europe and it was very convenient for long flights and train trips. My son, daughter-in-law and I kept our iPhones and my Kindle Fire charged while touring.

I use it on my Galaxy and it works great! Especially when you need that extra power. I say a lady using one at the airport and had to have one. Our plane was late and she talked for over an hour. I "overheard" her say to her friend that her phone was almost dead and then she remembered she had this in her backpack. It also work with my Kindle Fire too!

I do not have kindle fire HD, I can not confirm it, but it work for my android stick MK808, also it seem to be this has USB 1.0 and the rate is up to 5 or 7 mb/smy suggestion try with usb3.0 - ethernet better rate, only more expensive, good luck

I don't know what the requirements are for the kindle but this cord is so thin that it Will take a long time to charge a tablet. It should work but don't expect sorry charge times.

If the kindle is able to download the Vivofit app then there shouldn't be a problem. Try downloading the app and if it works then get the Vivofit! I love mine! Good luck!
