    I bought a unit from Radio Shack that has replacement ends. Then when I change the phone, if it takes a different adapter, it is only $3 for the different adapter. (i-go I think?) Now that phones are set to universally use the micro usb I guess I am set for life now.

    You need 2amps per socket. 1 amp doesnt cut the mustard.

    Home Depot also sells these at their checkouts. No shipping required.
