Yubi Power Dual USB 3.1A 15w Travel Wall Charger

Screen Shot 2013-07-08 at 2.24.57 PMI have several small electronic devices and a couple of tablet computers. They all great products, but keeping them all charged all the time can be a bit of a hassle. It also doesn’t help that they all require different capacity chargers, depending on their size.

This small dual wall USB charger is an ideal companion for a variety of charging situations. It is pretty small, and the charging pins fold into the body of the charger. This makes it ideally suitable for traveling purposes. You can also leave it permanently plugged in into an extra wall outlet at home and keep it there permanently.

The charger is very well built and fairly attractive looking. This is not a cheap and unreliable charger, but a high quality product.

A couple of issues that I have with this charger are the following:

1. While fully extended the charger can potentially cover two charging spots. This is not that much of an issue if you plug it into the sole (or even a twin) wall power outlet, but if you are like me and tend to use an extension strip for powering of all of your devices, then the extra bulkiness can easily prevent you from using other power outlets on the strip. I would have preferred if this charger had two different charging pin configurations for different charging situations.

2. The charging pins tend to be a bit loose when fully extended. This can prevent them from making a solid contact with the wall socket, and obstruct the proper functioning of this charger. A much firmer snap-in configuration would be more than desirable.

Overall, this is a very neat and useful charger that is particularly suitable fro traveling purposes.
