What is the current (Amps) of this product? Can it power devices that generally get 2A into the USB?

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.

Yes, but not effectively. If you plug in an iPad, it doesn't charge unless your iPad is asleep eg with the magnetic cover engaged. If asleep,, the iPad will charge, but not as quickly as with a 2A charger. Also, the 4 hour timer cycle is not long enough to charge the iPad if it is more than 50% depleted. I wouldn't recommend this device; particularly if you plan to use it to charge an iPad.

Each port is rated to supply 500mA. Here's a link to the manual if you want to look for more info. http://www.belkin.com/conserve/user-guide/WEB_F7C008_10MS041_ConserveValet.pdf

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.

We returned ours because it would not charge the ipad3 which has greater needs than its predecessors. It works fine to charge the samsung dumb phone and hot spot however.

I'd guess yes. The bottom panel reads:Input: 100-240V at 50/60Hz 0.5AOutput: 5V DC 500mA x4 (2.0A)I tried to take a picture but it's bright limon colored and not showing up.

From the spec sheet... USB Output: DC 5.2V 2Amp USB Input: AC 125V 50/60Hz 350mA

I don't know for sure. It's not indicated on the unit. I have used it to charge relatively low power devices (about 2 Amps total) with no problem.

Absolutely not. The amplifier needs 12 volts at 2 amps or more. A USB port supplies 5 Volts and only 1/10 to 1/2 amp at best. The new USB port standard (3.1 - yet to be released) will supply much higher current, but it's still only 5 volts. Besides, the plugs and sockets don't match up anyway.

Not sure, but will charge an iPad so using the 2nd USB port aught to work. The specification section on the Amazon site is actually quite thorough, as is the PowerGen website. I am quite certain this will work just fine however.

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).

I am not sure. I am using a Anker astro pro2 that puts out 12, 16, 19, and 5v usb. It works with a little wire adaptation.

There is a 2A fuse in the plug, so the total load across all three sockets and the USB plug is 2A. I was disappointed to find this out since it is very limiting given that a lot of newer devices require 1 or maybe 2A. I tried to see how much the unit could take and put a 10A fuse in, plugged a 5A device on it. The unit started smoking immediately. This is very unfortunate as it is a great unit otherwise, but I think it should be build for at least 8-10A total current.

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.

Just remember that if they are all power hungry devices that there is a limited supply of power on anything USB related, in this case you have 2A limit, or approximately 4 full power devices (USB 2.0 has a 500mA cap). If this doesn't seem to be the problem, maybe you just got a bad one.

Yes USB uses 5V 1A. To Charge tablets, iPad, etc., sometimes make sure that the output is 5V 2.1 amp, higher the amperage, better charging time.

This device will work with any device that requires charging using a USB cable. It will provide 2.1 amps of charge across the two ports.

I belive the mini USB 5 pin is the same but i'm not sure about the power requirements. Sorry

In theory, no. Not according to the USB spec. If you run 7 USB 3.0 devices, and they all draw 900mA, then they will request 31W and only receive 20. In reality... very few devices will draw that much power... but know your devices or do the math

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.

Hello Tim. The USB ports can be used for charging one 2.1Amps device or two 1Amp devices.
