Complete waste of time !
I own 2 of these myself but the double sockets which obviously makes no difference to the usb sockets.
Each usb socket is 1 amp ?
Seriously it takes 3-4 times longer to charge than using a plug in usb charger.
My 2 daughters loved the idea at first to charge their iphone 5's but soon went back to using their original chargers after a couple of days .
Do not waste your money on these !

It's the latest gadget, to replace the gadget we already use quite happily. :wink:

Heat added but should be around the £4 mark as you can get the double for not much more money.

2.1A shared output so should charge at full current using one port.
Will charge at 1A if both ports are used assuming both devices draw equal current.
Were yours LAP brand? They are normally ok.

You must have a VERY busy home!
I've got a few of the double ones now and have no problems at all. I dont have my kitchen electrical appliances on at the same time so no problems with charging speed.
I've got 4 doubles in my kitchen and the TV is on the most leaving the others free.

Mine works perfectly and charges as fast as the normal chargers
Home bargains are a bit cheaper from memory £8.99 or so' :smiley:

I find if you have 2 usb sockets charging it's a bit slow as 1amp per socket. Unplugging 1 makes no difference, but if you start with just 1 usb devices then it's a lot faster. I think the socket won't change amps while charging a device. Using 1 only from the start will give you 2.1amp which will charge faster. I have the lap socket however I guess this one is the same so plan to pick one up. Heat

Here is an example of their uselessness !
I have 10,000 ma mobile battery thingy ?
Using my standard 2A samsung charger i can fully charge it from completely flat in approximately 4 hours ?
Using the LAP usb socket after 20 hours its still not 100% charged ?
