Does it have the data pins shorted (per standard) to signal that it can provide high current to Android and other non-Apple devices?

Yes it even charges ps3 controllers. The controllers require smart response from charger to set current.

I really don't know, but it charges my iPhone 5 super fast when it's hooked up to the 2 amp (I think that is the output) side.

It charges all my android devices, they report charging via "A/C" when you check via settings-->about device-->status

I have only used this on my Asus Transformer Infinity T701, but it looks to work just like a standard USB hub and Ethernet port when plugged in. I do not recall that Android required any special drivers/apps to use it. It just worked.

When I Google the SFP0501500P portion of your question, I find a number of hits on EBay. They mostly show a standard 5vdc adapter with a barrel plug. However, I find this unusual for an Android device. Most Android devices use the micro USB connector. Here is one of the links to the SFP reference you gave. http://www.ebay.com/itm/DC5-0V-AC-ADAPTER-POWER-CHARGER-FOR-MODEL-SFP0501500P-/140522352493?pt=US_Power_Supplies&hash=item20b7c8ef6d&x=46&y=6 The barrel connectors for 5vdc seem to come in two sizes, from my experience. One has a black center insulator and the other has a yellow center insulator. The pin sizes ARE DIFFERENT. Sometimes the pictures online are good enough to tell if the device you are about to order is black or yellow. But not always. BUT... if your Android device uses the standard micro USB connector... there are a million different choices out there and you just want to make sure the current requirement for your device is met.

No, the unit plugs into a 4s or earlier 30 pin connector. There are more updated technologies now IMO.

I don't think there's anything too mysterious about chargers. This Belkin base delivers a 2.1 amp current to whatever USB cord you plug into it. I've used this base to charge iPhones, iPads, iPods, Android phones, camera batteries... The only thing "hocus pocus"-ey about Apple is the non-USB, *other* end of the cord, the end which plugs into your device -- something about a slightly different pin configuration will sometimes make my iPhone5 say something like "this cord is not approved by Apple". But if I switch the cord (or even just flip it over) it's always charged any of my devices, and very quickly at that. I don't think there's anything too mysterious about chargers.

Some Apple devices require higher amperage. Plugging an Android device on the Apple port should still work, but the device may think it is plugged into a computer USB port and revert to the minimum 0.5 amperage power draw resulting in much slower charging. This happens much less often these days but is still a possibility. Plugging an Apple device into the non-Apple port will likewise still work, but it will probably not charge as fast as the dedicated Apple port.

Nope. Use any port for any item, such as any phones &/or iPads or other tablets. Just do not exceed the 6.2 Amp maximum. Interestingly enough, I discovered that when I went above the max output of the charger it proceeded to charge 2 iPads & 1 iPhone while keeping the third iPad "on hold" until one of the other three items were charged. Then it polished off my phone. Hope this helps. This is the best of 4 chargers I have had. The other thee went into the trash.

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.

Yes - "Two high-powered USB charging ports with 3.6 Amps of charging capacity" I bought this and have no issue charging two of anything (including ipads) - love the product!

Yes, OS doesn't make a difference. Makes sure it's 30 pin, not lightning connector.

Yes, that is its purpose, to act as an extention of the usb port. It will work with android or apple or any other usb device. Yes, I have already tried. It does take a very small amount of power to power itself, but it should not be noticable.

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. The charger that I received works for Galaxy and other non-Apple devices.

No. It will charge 2 iPads OR 2 iPhones. Apple devices have higher amperage requirements than Android
1769439
Yes and no. Each port can deliver up to 2.4amps. The non-Apple port can deliver 2.4amps to any Android or other non-Apple device that needs it. The Apple port can deliver 2.4amps to iPads. However, the total number of amps is 2.4, not 4.8. (We know this because it's a 12 watt plug, and watts = amps * volts.) So, if you have 2 devices charging, the maximum current will still be 2.4amps, split between the two devices. Any device that uses less current (e.g., 0.8amps) will use less. These statements assume that you have the proper cable.

I think it's 8W per apple port and 5W per Android ports. It doesn't change watts depending on what is plugged in or not.

I looked at mine, and see that it has a Mini-usb male on one end, and a Micro-usb male on the other end. The Mini end plugs into the Wilson signal booster, with the Micro end plugging into my Android. Mine has worked great.

I would check with Wagan to be sure, but as near as I know the output from any port is standard USB at 2.1 amps. I hear some Samsung devices have problems due to their proprietary wiring of USB.
