This is a pretty nifty USB 5 port charger currently selling for $20 at Amazon.
Made by Anker, it is fairly compact (3.8" long, 2.4" wide, 1" high). What is cool about this device is it can charge multiple high power USB devices like the iPad and Samsung Galaxy Tabs simultaneously. A single iPad or TAB normally require more juice than your normal USB chargers yet this device can power 3 high AMP USB devices and 2 normal devices all from the same box. In fact, it is even labelled for each device.
There are two iPad 2.1 Amps (highest output) ports, one single Samsung Tab 1.3 Amps ports, and two 1 Amp ports for iPhones, other Android phones, or any other regular USB accessory.
It is important to remember, this is rated at 5V/5A. The combine number of devices cannot exceed 5A . With two iPads, the most you can connect is probably 2 more normal devices like another two iPhones.
Here it is next to a Logitech mouse.
The real test, an iPad, 7" Samsung Tab and a Galaxy Nexus are all charging from the same charger.
It is strange that they call it a Wall charger when it is actually a brick with a small AC cable. However, that isn't a big deal for me.
Overall, I really like this and this is ultra convenient for multiple devices. $20 isn't bad considering many 2.1 AMP USB chargers go for that much.
