Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The review sample I received from the manufacturer packs a lot of features into a relatively small form factor. The face that houses the ports is slightly over an inch square, and the overall unit (not counting the spring loaded contact) is 2.25 inches long, of which a little less than an inch protrudes from your lighter socket. This makes it ideal for cramped spaces. What is interesting is this charger is clearly designed for tablets and fast charging phones. While there are no 1.0 Amp ports the internal protective circuitry prevents the higher capacity ports from overcharging phones or devices that normally use lower capacity charging current. This charger simultaneously fast charged an iPad 2 and Samsung Tab 3 10.1 in my test. Both devices were at approximately seventy percent when I started the test and both were fully charged in less than an hour in an operational vehicle. That is faster than any other charger that I own. Plus the charger itself remained relatively cool. Some I have tested get pretty hot during such tests. A feature that I love is this phone glows when it's properly inserted into a lighter socket. Newer chargers use LEDs to do that, and one that I own is so bright at night that it's distracting. This one isn't - it's softer and actually functions as a night light of sorts in my vehicle's console. What I do not like, though, is the ports are not clearly marked. The only way to tell the 2.4 Amp port from the 2.0 one is to make sure that you insert this into your socket with the logo facing up. I would have loved tiny pinpoint LEDs of different colors next to each port to tell which is which. Port identification notwithstanding, this charger outperformed most chargers that I have tested and was the [electrical] equal of the higher end ones. If you want safe, fast charging this is one to consider.
