Q:What is the actual voltage output of this USB portable power supply adapter widget? 2amps tells me amperage output but not voltage output. All cellphone chargers have a low voltage output, for example 5V, depending on what brand name phone you own.

A:Â Hello, Jojo - Thank you for your question. When a battery pack is installed, the USB port on the power source supplies a 5 Volt DC, up to 2.1 Amp charging site for your cell phone, MP3 player, or other small (up to 2.1 Amp) USB device. I hope this helps!

Tight Fit Around USB Port
Could use a design improvement: a better ergonomic fit around the USB port to allow fingers to actually grasp both sides of the USB cable end to unplug (either top & bottom, both sides, or both). Current design is very tight fit around the USB outlet (bottom & left side), forcing you to yank on the fragile cable itself to remove, instead of grasping the plug itself.

Love my new 18-Volt USB Portable Power Source. I did a test run on charging my Chrome book and it worked great!
I plan to use the charger for all of my devices on the weekends that I am away from a reliable power source and cruising with my Fur-kidz.

USB Charger
The charger works perfect. The power range seems unlimited for over 12 hours. Fully charged my Moto X 6 times on a 4amp battery. It's well worth the price.

It provided a convenience I never had before. However, it doesn't charge as fast as the battery back-up that you'd get from the after market. For the size and weight, I was hoping for at least as fast as those even with same lighting-cable.
I am invested.
