In the last 3 month I've gone through 5 chargers! So what can I do so they don't break so fast! I travel with my charger everywhere so it goes under heavy use! What is a charger that I can talk everywhere and it won't break, I've gone through 2 normal charges from Apple a retractable a Bellken and an off brand! I'm thinking about getting a braided charger (the one with parachute rope) but I need some clearance that it won't break in 2 weeks!

Thanks in advance

Depends on how you treat your chargers. Not saying you mistreat it, but some people tend to accidentally bend the cord too much. Especially at the port side where the cable connects to your phone. Are you using your phone while charging? Sometimes I tend to use my phone on the charger while I'm in bed and I figured out that I'm tilting the phone at an angle where it bends the charger causing the wires inside to malfunction. If none of this applies to you then I would go ahead and buy the charger you mentioned. Just always remember to try not to bend or twist the cable too much.

I have a very old one that's a lot more sturdy, I've been using it for 4 years. I've still managed to go through 3 of the newer chargers when I've lost this one. Apple is making their newer chargers worse and worse..
It looks something like this:

I Have a Belkin charger and ive had it for a little over 5 months now and I love it. That's the only experience ive had with chargers other than the standard Apple chargers. I would try the Belkin again, but I understand also if you wouldn't, because the one that I have was a bit pricy.
