This is a Blues for all you people!  All you people with Neuros I players!  It's great to be here in McDonough, Georgia; this is a real Blues town!

Tried to charge my Neuros while driving in my car,
Whoa, I tried to charge my Neuros while driving in my car,
Put the charger in the lighter, but the results weren't up to par.

When I turned on the ignition, the red light began to glow,
When I turned on the ignition, the red light began to glow,
Now when I driving in my Nissan, I can't get no charge no more.

This is my second car charger, the second died like the first,
This is my second car charger, the second died like the first,
Things were going OK, now they've gone from best to worst.

Thank you!  Good night!

 - Bluesy Blessed B

Here are the liner notes to that historic recording:

"Brian, an dyed-in-the-wool fan of his Neuros I had a car charger which died after about a year's worth of use.  He ordered another and it also bit the wax tadpole after about a year.  The player still charges at home, but the car charger no longer showed a red light when charger was in the lighter.

On his wife's car, if you turn off the engine, the lighter will stay on, but on his car, if you shut off the engine, the lighter will turn off.  Not knowing whether he had done something wrong by leaving it plugged in, he wrote this lonesome-sounding song.  Note the use of harmonica and lute..." - Moses Asch

If the device works at home, and the car charger is the only problem, check the fuse.  Is it broken through?  The fuse can be replaced for less change than the average person will find in their pocket.  Use a 2A fast acting fuse.

Do you only notice this problem when you start the car with the adapter and Neuros plugged in already?  All cars, portible devices, and car power adapters are a bit different.  Try waiting to plug the device in until the car has been started.  Try not leaving the device plugged in when the car is off.

Thank you for responding.  I tried the charger in my wife's car and it didn't work their either.  I will see if changing the fuse fixes this issue.  Thanks for the tip!

Many were called but fuse were chosen!  It works now and all for 50 cents.  Thank you very much.

Hanging up my guitar for the meantime...
