Number one, when the Zen is plugged into this adapter, the touch pad becomes useless. unplug it, and you can use the touch pad again.
Number two, I eventually wound up replacing the touch pad.
Number three, a slight audible hum can be heard while listening to music with the Zen plugged in.
Number four, My Zen began to need constant resetting and restarting after years of good performance. Eventually it became unuseable. I ordered a new battery, thinking that was a possible cause, and when I opened up the Zen to replace the battery, i noticed corrosion and heat damage both on the metal of the power supply and all around the power supply on the circuit board. I belive this adapter is responsible.

I got this charger after my computer died, making it impossible to charge my player through the USB port. I like this much better than having to charge it with the computer. It only takes about two hours as opposed to more than three using the USB. It’s also great for travel. I would recommend it as an absolute must-have for your player.

It does what it does, which is charge the Zen Vision M quicker than the USB cable would, but it also causes a loud buzzing in the headphones while charging, making it impossible to listen to music while charging the unit.
My best guess is its cheaply shielded and it’s electromagnetic noise. I’ve tried solutions to no avail so buy if you must, but I suggest a higher quality charger.

While this does indeed recharge the Creative Vision:M MP3 player, it is likely responsible for slowly cooking my Zen.

SOLUTION for me…

Purchased the Home travel Adapter for my Creative products. You can’t beat the price for this item. And the bottom line is that it works.
