When traveling I usually juggles with adapters, extension cords, cables, and emm **** ments! So I ordered this charger and I could test it immediately (France and England at the moment). I use it to recharge an iPad, Galaxy SIII, Galaxy SIV, and an external battery 3000mAh RAVPower (which, by the way, I am delighted). No worries for charging 4 (although the iPad, Apple requires, remains capricious) simultaneously. I read the comments here and there talking about overheating, and I have not encountered this trouble (even leaving four devices plugged overnight).
