Will this plug into an iphone 5 with an otter box protective cover or do you have to remove the cover to use this charger

I have a 4S. I think the chargers for the 5 are different so this may not work for your phone. They sell these at Batteries Plus so if there is a store near you I would either call or stop by. The protective cover shouldn't interfere with any type of charger or battery extension device for your phone though.

The one I bought was for an Android phone that uses a micro USB connector / charger. I don't know if it'll work for an iPhone with the cover. Sorry.

The charger itself would have to work, as it is a standard USB inlet. The iPhone 5 has a new pin set up on the phone side, but plugs into any standard USB plug.

It will not work with the Defender Otter Box. However, if you look at the hard plastic part of the case where you insert the charger, you will see a very small "lip" of plastic. I am sure it will void any warranty, BUT if you shave the lips off either side, it will fit without affecting the case IMO.

I am sorry they didn't offer an alternate response such as not applicable. The charger was a gift and the individual it was for doesn't have the otter box. Sorry couldn't help.

I have never had to remove the case to plug my charger in. I do have the iphone5, but I can't imagine having to remove it for the one either.

This charger is what I use for my iPad 2, so the connector is not the same as the one you would use for the iPhone 5. however, since it does use the USB port for the cord, you merely need to plug your iPhone 5 USB cable into the slot for the charger; it will work just fine. That is what I do when I am alternating the device I am charging.

Works and fits iPhone 5 with Otter Box Defender case . It is a very good unit for iPhone 5

Hello Branton, I purchased this for my husband IPHONE 5S and he has a Outterbox Commuter case. He can charge his phone with the puregear lighting car charger plus the Otterbox case gives his phone the protection that he needs. Happy purchase :)

nope it is totally open to plug in the charger. I haven't found anything you need to remove it from the case for.

I don't have an otter box but as long as your home charger that comes with the phone hooks up with that case then the car charger will too. They both have the same small plug. Hope that helps you.

Idk probably if charger is the old (long) style like iPhone 4S is what I have. I comes with a bunch of adapters I threw away but wish I would have kept because I think my phone would fit better when it has a otter box on with an adapter. This will not fit a iPhone 5 as they changed the charger style to be much smaller

I have an iPhone 5s and an Otterbox Case with a flap covering the charge port. I have been using this device for months and am delighted I got it. Although I am a little handier juggling with the tab, I truly prefer pluggng in my son's device because he has removed that tab.

We do not have a iPhone 5 just yet. However I know the plug has changed and I can say for sure it will not dock with the new charger iphone 5 has. Sorry.

I do not know about the otter box, but I have enclosed hard case for a ipod, i don't have to open the case to use it. The cable ends are smaller and seem to be made to fit in a,device device slot as oppose to covering the whole area for ex :Monster audio cables. Hope that helps

The only thing I can tell you is the plug is the same size as the iPhone plug for the wall charger and that it's able to move(flap)back and forth. Just thinking about now I would have to say that the iPhone with outer box on would not fit.

I don't have an iphone or an otter box, but the end is very small. It works with my galaxy S when the case is on. I don't think you will find one smaller or as high of quality as this.

I'm sorry. I have no idea. Works with my regular case but I don't have an otter box.
