Belkin Tunepower For Zune By Patrick on Dec 09, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

I only recently entered the mp3 player game with my purchase of a Microsoft Zune, and soon after came across the Belkin Tunepower for the Zune. This little device clips to the back of the zune, then plugs into its input and basically extends the battery life, reportedly by 6 to 12 hours. It's main job is to extend battery life, but the Tunepower also allows you to charge the Zune through a wall outlet, which is very nice on trips where you don't have your computer, or a nearby USB outlet. If the Tunepower has been charged separately from the Zune, it can charge the Zune on its on, and it also has a tilting back so it creates a stand while watching videos on the Zune. I don't believe that this product actually adds even 6 hours of extra life, while actually using the Zune, but it does add an hour or two, which can be nice on long trips. Also, the Tunepower adds more bulk, to the already slightly portly Zune, but this doesn't bother me since I only hook it to my Zune on long trips, or when I need to charge it through a wall outlet.
