I do notice it's 5 amp input, meaning all 5 ports at one time would only max out at 1 amp
each? Maybe one draws a bit less leaving a bit more for other ports.
I've seen better ones that are not towers. I'd be afraid of tipping it over. Of course
you'd plug cables in and leave them plugged into the tower but remove them from phones
etc.
It's space saving for sure.
