If you own an older car, chances are it can’t do things like stream music or charge a smartphone on the go. But we discovered a gadget that’ll let you do just that. There’s a bunch of high quality USB car chargers at Amazon, and we found a particularly great one that’s on sale.

We’re willing to bet that the Imden USB Car Charger—just $14 with the on-page coupon (was $30)—is speedier than the wall charger that came with your phone. And shoppers seem to agree too, since it’s an ‘Amazon’s Choice’ item that has earned a perfect five-star rating from more than 18,300 reviewers.

Stream your favorite music in your car

On sale for 54 percent off, this Imden Bluetooth 5.0 FM Transmitter plugs into your car’s cigarette lighter and instantly enables it for Bluetooth via your phone. Once plugged in, you can tune it to an unused FM radio frequency to pair it to your car (use RadioLocator.com to find one in your area).

Then just pair your phone to the car charger and that’s it. Now you can stream your favorite music and podcasts from your phone to your car’s speakers from an unused broadcast frequency in complete surround sound without any radio static or interference. You can even use it for hands-free phone calls with its built-in microphone.

“I bought this adapter to work in my 2004 Acura TL which does not have an auxiliary cable or any other way to play music from my phone through my cars speakers,” wrote a delighted five-star reviewer. “Once you set up the device, it quickly connects every time you get in your vehicle and even overrides your headphones so I can seamlessly go from listening through my earbuds to listening on my cars stereo system.”

Super-speedy

This USB car charger is fast. It comes with two USB-A ports that deliver up to 80 percent faster speeds than traditional car chargers, and one of its USB ports uses quick charge 3.0 technology for even faster speeds. Now your phone can go from zero to 100 percent charged in minutes instead of hours.

“The USB 3.0 port is a godsend! It charges my phone quickly and efficiently while I stream music via Bluetooth,” added a satisfied Amazon shopper. “The other port is used when I have others in the vehicle with me. It's nice having the two charging ports to work with. The design is modern and sleek too.”

It even protects against over-charging, short circuiting, over-voltage, over-discharge and more. Translation: Your phone won’t get fried. The car charger is ideal for Android and Apple phones, and can also be used for topping-off power battery banks, tablets and GPS devices, as well.

At $14, this Imden USB Car Charger is a hidden gem. Get it while you can.
