Q: iPhone 6s car charger?

Hi guys. I'm wanting to buy a car charger for my iPhone 6s but I want it to be safe and not affect my phone or battery. This is the one I have found and would like feedback on what you all think.

It does say that it is MFi certified, it's also 2.1a which I believe is the same ampage as an iPad charger.

Your opinions would be great.

Thanks

iPhone 6s, iOS 9.2

It will work but I don't think the permanently attached Lightning cable is a good idea. It can't charge non-Lightning devices, and if the cable gets damaged you have to replace the entire unit. Also, if you ever get an iPad, it will not charge as fast as a 2.4 A unit. I use this model:

MFi certification is important for the cable because there is a special chip in the Lightning connecter.
