Do you have to buy the car charger from HTC or can you use let's say a Motorola car charger that also uses mini USB? Like the razor

Motorola car charger will most likely fry your Trinity. I believe it outputs more power than the Trinity can handle. Do yourself a favour and pick up a USB Car Charger that outputs the suggested 5v 1A.

Motorola car chargers are 5v 1A

Motorola car charger works very well.
I have two of them, and a wall charger (also for Motorola) and they are working fine.

Mine Orange SPV M700 (UK) came with screenholder and in-car charger so I don't have that problem.

I accidentally plugged my Trinity into my girlfriends RAZR charger and it get very, very hot. I don't know how good that can really be.

Use this (http://pda.jasnapaka.com/batti/) to see how hot the battery is getting and compare it to charging with the normal charger to see if there is any damage being done.

Hi,mini usb has the same voltage ( current is sometimes different ) concerning all the accessories of various brand of mobile.

They all get hot charging.
AFAIK any mini-USB physical connector will be the same electrically, ie 5v 1a, therefore they should (in theory at least) all work OK.
