All of our devices need power, and with several types of the exact same device out there it has always bugged me that you can't just plug it in anywhere you go, it's all electric right? What I mean is that if I go to Europe, Australia or even China I can't plug in my device, they've all got different types of plugs, why is there no standard with this type of thing? It could be the exact same device but yet it won't work here in the US or vice versa without some sort of adapter. You'd think that since all of these things are used by everyone there might be a standard, but there isn't, just another one of those questions that will never be answered...

Today for review I've got a 2 in 1 car and home charger from USBFever , that's also truly an international charger, it can be used in any country around the world where you go with four interchangeable AC Plugs . Most international chargers only come with three types of plugs, so having four makes this one even more useful, and this charger has got two USB ports on it, they look exactly the same but the amperage is different on them, one runs at 500mA, while the other runs at 1000mA. You might wonder why this is special, but take a look at your iPhone, or iPod, and you'll see that it needs 1000mA, while a regular mp3 Player or cellphone might only need 500mA for charging. I've not seen any other types of portable chargers out there that specifically address the needs of high-current devices.

- There is 2 USB Slots, one is for MP3 (500mA), another one is for iPod/Phone/PDA (1000mA). Actually the differences are just the output of current, there is no any other physical difference, if you device are not that high in loading, you can plug in either any one.

- The TOTAL output of the 2 USB Ports are 1000mA, if you have 2 ports charging at the same time, the 1000mA will be allocated by loading and the port marked for "MP3" will be allocated with 500mA maximum.
