I'm looking to pickup a couple iPhone 5 chargers, not looking to break the bank let me know if anyone has some good deals on them.

Thanks

Beware of the cheap >$10 chargers/cables, I have tried 3 different ones:
1. lasted 2 plug ins and the 8 pin connector stayed in the phone when I went to unplug it (1 sale a day)
2. lasted 2 weeks and did the same thing (1 sale a day)
3. lasted about a month and half of daily plug ins and then started shorting out (ebay)
I paid a total of $14 for the 3 so I knew it was a chance of crappy quality but I have used the iPhone 4 charger cables from the same places and still using some for my ipod so figured it was ok for the 8 pin.

I purchased an aftermarket cable for $5 that works fine with IOS 7. The last two I bought were beat, but I got my money back. I'll post links if a mod allows it.

I bought some off Amazon. If you buy the ones made by amazon.. the Amazon Basic ones..they are 100% Apple approved and work great.

Keep in mind that for those looking into the 30-pin to lightning adapter, they don't all support audio playback, like Apple's or those certified to Apple specs...

I have had terrible luck with the non-Apple ones for the Iphone 5 and new Ipad. I got a car charger from Target (forget what brand, but its the only brand they had) that has worked well so far.
