Can a phone be plugged into the 2 amp usb out, or is it for tablets only?

My Nokia N900 came with a 2A quick charger, and can charge from either slot. Essentially, if your device can use a 2A charger, using the 2A port will work just fine. If not, your device will likely limit it's own intake to 1A anyway. Without data communication, most devices default to 200mA or 500mA anyway (USB standard) to not over-tax the source. To get 2A use one usually has to use a cable designed to trick the device (commonly shorting the data pins) to do this, or change it's settings once connected.

Don't have this particular device, but my understanding is that most smartphones can, but they will only charge at around a 1mA rate (I think the device still puts out more and drains faster, but not positive on that as I'm not sure where the charge would go if not accepted by the phone). It's really more for tablets and other devices designed to take more power. Older phones may not regulate the amperage in and could be damaged, but from what I read newer phones are built to avoid that. If you contact the easyaccA store they respond promptly and can tell you for certain.

I have charged my Galaxy S4 on both. It charged quicker on the 5V2A slot it seems.

I've plugged my Galaxy Nexus into the 2 amp slot with no problem. In fact, when charging at home, I tend to use the 2 amp charger that came with my Nexus 7 because it charges my phone faster. It has caused no damage.

If you know how electricity works, all that matters is amps. There is a 2.1 amp port specifically for iPads and other tablets.

If it is a phone yes. Most phones require only one watt, tablets require two watts

Yes, you shouldn't have any problems charging any of those with the 2.1 amp port. You need to use the 2.1 amp port to charge tablets or else it will take a looong time to charge.

No, but you can use most of AC charger that has USB. I am using AC charger for tablet.

It has two USB charging ports on it. One is a 1 Amp port, used for charging tablets such as ipad or kindle fire, and the other port is 500 Milliamp, which is used for charging normal smartphones and ipods, etc...You can use the 500 mA port to charge tablets as well, it is just much slower

Unfortunately not. It's only for charging portable devices like cell phones, tablets, and any other devices that charge via a USB port.

There are 3 USB ports total located on the side of the unit. One of those ports which is clearly marked "2.1A Output (for pad)" This port is meant to for your tablet. It is specifically designed to charge/sync your tablet at full charging speed. You use your own tablets charging cable to Sync/Charge. This make the unit compatible with all Tablets regardless of their make and model. The 2.1 amp output port will charge the latest iPads, Samsung Tablets, Amazon Kindle and other tablets at full charging speeds without issue.

Yes, you can use this for both. In fact, you can use it for both at the same time. It works with anything that uses a USB charger. All USB chargers output the same voltage (around 5 volts). There's 2 ports on this device: the outer one is 1 amp, the inner one is 2.1 amp. They are even marked on the charger as "Phone" and "Tablet". You could plug your phone into the 2.1 amp port since the phone will only draw as many amps as it was designed for (around 1); however, plugging that tablet into the 1 amp port probably won't work or would take twice as long to charge. I use mine to charge: Galaxy S4, iPhone 5, iPad mini, Kindle Fire HD, Blackberry Bold. No problems. Yes, you can use this for both. In fact, you can use it for both at the same time.

Yes but the current is very low. I think it's around 300-400 mA. A standard USB port from computer provides 500 mA and your phone wall charger provides 1-1.2 A, which is the reason why the charging time doubles on a computer USB port.My experience is that if you use your phone continuously while charging with the player, the battery will still decrease, but a a slightly lower rate. Do not expect it to charge your tablet which requires >2A.

it will for power and/ot charging ( if tablet mini usb supports charging). It will NOT work for data/usblink.

I am not sure of the amps. All I know is, it will charge an I-Phone with its USB Cord, but does not haveenough power to Charge an I-Pad! .. Hope this helps you.

I'm actually using a spare one for that function now. HOWEVER, it will only charge items at the USB limit of 500mA per port. Most true chargers are capable of 700mA to 1000mA depending on the device.

Yes you can plug this into a tablet as main source. The device has it's own ac adapter and plenty of power.

Yes, there is a USB port on the device which will supply ample power to usb devices. I am using the 12 volt output to power a small Amateur Radio. (Approximately 2amps through the 12v output) The 5v USB out should handle everything, even tablets.

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.

You only want to use the correct amperage for your device. I believe that this device requires the 2.1A charger.
