Good for travel or at home

Good for travel or at home, so you don't have to charge with your computer.

Perfect for a laptop.

(5 out of 5) by Jack T. Riggins on Nov 21, 2008 (Sunnyvale, CA USA)
What a smart device for a laptop! First off, this surge protector fits easily in my laptop case... but what really sold me on this are the two powered USB ports. I have a laptop cooling fan plate (USB) and a laptop LED light (USB). With USB extensions, I can now run these without straining my laptop's power supply!

A little bigger than I thought

(4 out of 5) by Bob dog on Aug 20, 2008 (Sierra Foothills)
It sure is hard to tell how big this thing is from a picture. It's about as big as 2 cell phones if that helps. I'll probably just travel with the little AC to USB converter that comes with the new iPhone. It's MUCH smaller.

Charges SanDisk Sansa Clip 4GB

(5 out of 5) by Ted Felix on Jan 10, 2009
Bought this specifically for charging my kids' SanDisk 4GB Sansa Clip mp3 players. It charges two of them at the same time. It does appear, however, that the Sansa Clip charges faster if it is turned on while it is connected to this power supply. Make sure the Sansa Clip is "on" and in "pause" mode for best results.

Good for what it is designed to do

(4 out of 5) by Ice & Snow is all I know... on Sep 9, 2008 (2009...)
I own this product (was a gift to me from my spouse). Anyhow, it works great for the regular plugs. The thing about USB is there are different types, and some items overclock USB. It will not charge an overclocking device. Other than that, it works well for charging my cell phone through the USB charger. Everything else I own does the thing (proprietary enabling) of overclocking their product so that the USB charger cannot recognize the device.

This happens on computers a bit. If you buy a Saitek keyboard, it overclocks the USB, so only a Saitek mouse will work with it. That is not the only brand that does this, but an example.

So, items that are proprietary (game systems, etc) would probably not work charging from this charger. Mine don't.
