How much current does this provide? USB Standard is .5A, but most smartphones will now take up to 1.5 to 2.0 amps

No power is supplied by this wire. It is simply a wire with two different connectors enabling the user to connect a male 12 V cigarette lighter tip to a separate wire coming from the battery. E.g., on a motorcycle you'd have a different wire coming from the battery to this, which would give you the battery's 12 Volts and max Amps to the female cigarette socket on the outflow end. You'd then plug in your preferred charger into this end. You determine the output Volts and Amps by whatever charger you plug into this wire. All this unit does is to give you a female cigarette socket to use as you wish. There are no electrical components other than the wire and two plug-in adapters. It is an extension cord.

This outlet does not have a fuse of any kind, so it will provide as much current as the cord from your battery allows. Please note that this is not a USB connection.

I believe what he wants to know is what the current carrying capacity of the 'wires' are.. if we know the gauge the wire this can be looked up online I would assume they are stranded wires.. there are different tables depending on weather it is stranded or solid copper wire.

I do not know if it can measure 2.4A, but I have pushed it to 2.24A peak, charging my Galaxy Tab 3 via solar. USB ports were never meant to deliver that much anyway... The physical contacts are really taking a beating at this amperage. It actually sparks when unplugging.

I believe that the USB connections are 1.0 amp. The lighting and mini USB wire is 1.5 amp. This thing works great. It's charges my iPhone 5s 5 times on a full charge. The light is really bright. I'm very satisfied.

No.. But I understand and have measured the device used 20ma Sooooi. Add 20ma to your total when you need to know the whole usage I tested using a split USB cable and 2nd meter

Dr. James M. Peterson - You are giving INCORRECT INFORMATION. Android post is 1.5a and not 1.0amps. Please change your information.

Each port should be able to out put near 900 mAH. The last port is able to do 1.0 amp for charging tablets or smartphones. It is able to do this because the chipset within the last port is designed to act as a standalone charger, where as the other ports can charge but they are meant for devices/data transfer.

Bill, I think ii's 1amp and not the 2.1amp required to charge the new smart phones and tablets faster. Its worked ok so far!

No, I use mine all the time with isound 16000mah battery backup it has 4 USB and up to 2.5 amp out got charging high end phones and tablets.

I know what you want to know, but your question has a slight error. You want to know how many mA (milli-Amps) this device puts out- not how many mAh (milli-Amp-hours). From the product description: Dual USB Charging Ports: Provides 1.0 amp of current when charging one device, and 0.5 amps of current to each port when charging two devices from AC or DC power. For AA or 9V charging, single port charging is supported. DC 5V +/- 5% 1000mA MAX So if your device is capable of absorbing 1000 mA (1 A), and you leave it connected for 1 hour, you would deliver 1000 mAh. Two hours, 2000 mAh, three hours, 3000 mAh, and so on. It's perhaps a fine distinction but it is important. HOWEVER- I think you may be disappointed if you try to use this as your primary charger for a device that requires 2100 mA of charging current (note I did not include the 'h'). It will only deliver 1A maximum, so if your Galaxy Tab will even charge from this device, it will take approximately twice as long as it would to charge from the Galaxy Tab's original AC adapter. HTH

The USB-2 hub itself provides 0.5 amps at 5V. The external power supply (included) provides 2.0 amps at 5V. So, the 2.5 amps total, is divided into 7 ports or total of 2.5 amps for power draw (like 1 amp for Port-1 plug-in and 1.5 amps for a Port-2 plug in). Usually USB devices draw less than 0.5 amps (except external HDD or external DVD+RW).

2A = 2 Amperes, as in current for charging tablets and more power-hungry devices. I don't know the answer, I'm just clarifying for those that don't get it, and those that might be able to answer.

Usb is 5Volts with .5A maximum draw. My multimeter won't even measure the current it's drawing so I'm not sure the exact wattage. So by using the above figures... 2.5 watts maximum although I guarantee it's definitely less than that. Hope that helps. The actual unit itself has no power listing so that's all I can figure for that.

You'll be fine. The .7 and 1.0 amps have become a standard in cell phones and tablets. I use it with a Motorola Android phone, Samsung Galaxy Tablet and a Google Nexus 7 and it works just fine.

Power actually transferred to phone is up to 1A (as I measure, depends on correct phone position), power toked from USB - up to 2A

There are many USB chargers, max 2 amps. The 1 amps give a better charge, the 2amps give a faster charge. I used the one that came with my cell phone. All USB ports are supposed to put out the same voltage which is around 5 volts. So anything that will charge through a USB port will work.

Look up the "AmazonBasics USB 2.0 A-Male to Mini-B Cable - 6 Feet" and any USB wall charger that gives adequate current (there are many now that are &gt; 1 amp at 5v)

sorry for the delay answering..as the others stated, some devices charge faster than others on it. I use it for cell phones, Samsung MP3 players, and my Kindle Fire HD. As previous people reported it supplies 500mA.
