Pros
Small, portable, useful. Well worth the inexpensive pricetag. This is a handy device for any person that owns usb devices. Small enough that i carry it my backpack at all times now.

I have chargers that will keep up with the max draw on the phone but not the ipad

For most applications it will be great but im using it primarily to help me align a portable solar panel array and the ports are under the panels which makes it hard to read the display as i make angle adjustments
