What is the amperage of each port NA and A? Why the SPECIAL case for an Apple?Will my Android charge at 2.1 amps on both usb ports?

I am unsure of any of these answers. They are all technical questions if you ask me. I have not even used mine yet. It is in the car still wrapped in plastic. Sorry.

The USB ports appear to be parallell and will split 20 Watts @5 Volts or 4 amps. I have been able to charge my Blackberry Z10 and my daughter's iPad II simultaneously without a warning from the devices. It is a sturdy charger and fits snugly in the power outlet.

Thanks GB Tech. I WILL NOT be answering any more questions like this from Amazon - even if I know the accepted answer.

This device does NOT charge at 4.2 amps or even 1 amp in your car. It's power output specs are for 24 volt trucks and military vehicles, not 12 volt cars. The maximum input is 1,000 milliamps. That is 1 amp at 12 volts. Unless the manufacturer has figured out how to break the laws of physics (conservation of energy) there is no way that this device has more than 2 amps output at 12 volts. I know. I was dumb enough to buy one, only to watch my battery drop while "charging" and using GPS. I estimate that the charger was putting out about 700 milliamps in the android output.

Yup! The Power Supply has two plugs: One made for Apple Products (marked "A") and one not made for Apple Products (marked "NA"). The NA port does not charge the iPad, just maintains the power level. However, the NA port charges everything else. The A port charges an iPad really well. The charge seems to be a bit quicker than with the standard charger, but that might just be perception.

The charger that I received works for Galaxy and other non-Apple devices. The instruction sheet shipped with it implies that it is an Apple product, and as you point out, the title is also incorrect. The seller has stated that the instruction sheet would be corrected, but it looks like the title is still wrong. Anyway, the charger that I actually received is a valid 1.9 amp USB standard charger for all non-Apple devices. If you use it on an Apple device you will only get 500mA (half amp) from it. This is because Apple is different from the rest of the world in how it detects the capacity of a charger.

Its the standard micro USB charger that has become the standard. I use it for all my phones which are Androids and for my Android Tablet. The Apple products are different and you wont be able to use this for Apple products.

Im sorry but I dont know what 2.1 A or 1A port is,lol I can say this. We have Iphones and it charges those.It also charges my gf I pad and the kindle fires the kids have and my e pad. It does not charge my Play station 3 controllers. I ended up buying another one after my 1st purchase so we now have two.One for the bedroom and one for the family room.I think its a great item to charge multiple things with one plug in instead of having outlets through out the house charging phones ect.

This is just a high-capacity charger with 2 USB slots. It's not Apple specific. Though I haven't tried it, I don't see a reason why it wouldn't charge Apple products in either slot.

I'm usung a dual port wall charger and there's one side that's for apple and other for android...the cable plug into the apple one was the one who charged slower but it was fully charged after 12 hrs. If I was you u would make sure the wall port is the right v for your device like 2.4c or 2.0v

Yes, it says Android on one and Apple on the other. Though honestly there is no difference, the Apple socket provides higher output (2.4A) to those devices which are capable of taking a higher charge speed like an Iphone (I believe can take 2.4A), but if you plug anything which draws anything lower like 1.5 or 2.0A in the 2.4A socket ,the device will only draw however much it is able to take. It's completely safe.

1A port can charge a smartphone; another port (2.1A), is for larger devices, such as the Apple iPad and other tablets. Currently there are smartphones that accept the 2.1A input as well.

Drew. There are two outputs with different amperages. 1 and 2.1 amps. Look at the picture above. If your phone charger is lower than 1.75 amps, I would use the 1 amp, just to be safe. If it is above that, it will charge faster on the 2.1 amp output.

In my experience, I have not noticed a difference in charging times. If you plug in an Android device in the Apple port, it won't charge any faster as it will only pull the max without destroying the device.

The AC adapter says 1A on it. It appears that it provides the max of 500ma per port. I connected my android phone to charge off of the hub, and it's reporting that it's being charged via "USB" which means it's not drawing more than 500ma. When I charge my cell with a direct usb wall charger (that came with my phone), it reports being charged via "A/C" (1amp). The power cord is 5 feet in length. Also, the USB connector (which is attached and can't be disconnected from the hub) that plugs into the computer is also 5 feet in length.

Yes, 3 of the ports are for 'other than Apple' devices, and the other two are provided for Apple devices. You may charge Apple devices in the 'other than Apple' ports, but because of the lower amperage, the charge will be slower. Unlike some other charging devices, adding devices to the charge does not impact the 2.3 amp ports.

one output port is for 2 Amp, the other is for 0.6 Amp, and the cable micro USB is for 2 Amp too. This info is from the case and in the manual. The USB cable shares the 2 Amp port outlet.

Sorry, I don't know the answer on the exact amps. Is there a specific reason why you might want 2.1a on both sides? All I can tell you (a non-electrician) is that it supplies enough power on the right side to charge an ipad (but not on the left). So, I suspect that it can't be sharing (1A on each) as that would not provide enough power on the right to charge an iPad.Hope that helps.

The picture says, Apple 2.1A and Android 1.5A. The description says otherwise.Apple: iPhone 5, 4S, 4; iPads and iPods (YES, all of them) @2.4 Amp(Please use your own cable)Android Phones: Samsung Galaxy S4 S3 S2, Galaxy Note 2 / Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX / HTC One X V S; All models @2.0 Amp

According to the manufacture's specs both ports seem to be identical as far as the amps provided (2.4 amp each port / 4.8 amps simultaneous). EDIT: I just got the charger in and according to the specification table in the instruction manual each port is optimized to the specific device - 1 port for Apple and 1 port for Android. You can charge a device with iOS 4 or less only in the Apple port but iOS 5 or greater can be charged in either port. However, for Apple devices the Apple port provides higher amps than the Android port, and for Android devices the Android port provides higher amps than the Apple port.
