First of all: Here are numerous reviews mixed with other manufacturers' equipment, recognizable by the pictures and also to different features (for example, only 4 USB ports). My review covers the Charger UC5001 in black housing with 5 USB ports, which also appears as the first product image and was to be delivered at a today's order so.
Scope of supply:
=========
It comes with a manual in English only, and the 5x USB Charger UC5001 including power supply. The operation is self-explanatory, however, so you do not necessarily need the manual.
Technical Specifications:
============
-3x 5V / 1A USB charging port
-2x 5V / 2.1A USB charging port with intelligent charge control
-Weight 80g
-dimensions 102x57x21mm
Workmanship and design:
=====================
The USB charger is meticulously crafted and makes a stable impression. Due to its small size, it fits almost anywhere. The slightly larger power supply can be good at hiding behind a desk or shelf. The on / off switch has a good tactile feedback and is easy to operate. A blue LED that is not too intrusive lights, signals the charging stand. All existing cables can be stuck without violence in the 5 USB connectors and are secure.
Operation and charging:
==============
For charging you simply connect to the power supply and operates the on / off switch at the back. So you do not unplug the power cord each time when not in use. With an energy cost meter I can also notice that when you turn off through the rear switch no energy is actually consumed. Even switched idle is only a power of 1 Watt display.
Shop you can basically anything that can be charged via a USB charger, from your smartphone, tablet or on mp3 players, to mobile battery stations. I've tested all the variations and can detect any problems. This charger and power supply were not extremely hot, even if one with 7.2 A load 5 devices at the same charging current.
Some caution should be exercised when loading equipment via one of the three 1 A USB sockets. These have no intelligent controller to the charging current limitation in contrast to the two jacks 2,1-A. For current and older mobile devices that should not be a problem as they can even regulate the charging current, but in especially old equipment without a current limit, the battery might suffer damage.
I have the following devices easily can charge on all USB ports: iPhone 4, Samsung Galaxy S1-S4 Sony Xperia Tablet S, various mobile power banks of Aukey / EasyAcc, Bluetooth speakers and Bluetooth headsets, Sony MP3 players. The load times of all devices have not been extended compared to the store with the original chargers.
Conclusion:
====
For less than 15 EUR you get a high-quality and reliable 5-port USB charger, which allows you to charge up to 5 mobile devices simultaneously, so that enough charging power is available to fully charge all the devices in a household overnight.
