    My GPS is on my iPhone so I just use the USB charger to the 12v plug. When I add a small RM GPS to the mix I hope to connect it to a double 12v plug.

    Are those 5 ports all 2.4 Amp?
    If so, I have the perfect place at home for it.

    • Smart port technology maximizes compatibility with Android, Apple and other devices by enabling charging speeds of up to 10 amps among 5 ports or 2.4 amps per port.
