I'm a portable power sponge -I absorb all I can get. I'm often working on the road while my significant other drives. This keeps my droid bionic and my Nexus 7 charged (yes, at the same time!) while we are cruising down the road. Most chargers allow a slow drain -or they just don't really charge (but rather maintain) these two device at once. Not this little guy. Nice!

This is a very sturdy, quality charger. I have had others that turned out to be rather flimsy; they would wiggle in the socket, loose connection, fall apart, etc. This one has very stiff spring-loaded contacts which are elongated to make a very secure connection. I used the charger with different combinations of smart phones, GPS units, Kindle Fire tablet, and a blue tooth receiver. The charger performed correctly with all combinations of devices and it seems to put out the rated current because none of the devices reported that they were in slow or "trickle" charge mode. I was also pleased to find out that it is smaller than I expected and it does not project out from the socket very far at all. The USB ports also have an up angle which works well for me since my cigarette lighter socket is fairly low in my car. This makes it a little easier to insert USB cables. Overall the charger does what it is supposed to and seems solid enough to last a long time.

This works great. I got it to charge two iPads (or 1 iPad and a Samsung Note II) at the same time. Works really well. Just fyi, this will not charge an iPad if you're using the retina display for GPS and mapping. Just discharges a much lower rate. All in all, I'm very satisfied. It charges great when the display & GPS are not in use.

Honest reviews on Lenmar AIDCU4 Dual USB Car Charger, High Output 4.2A for 2 iPads

I have been looking for a higher output car charger for some time now after I've acquired a Galaxy Note 2. With my old charger (with a measly output of .7A it could barely keep up with the battery drain if I have cell data on, GPS running, and bluetooth all going at once.

This got to me just in time right before a road trip so I took it for a drive. While I didn't measure total time to charge from empty to full what I can tell you is that it is charging at about the same rate as the factory brick charger (we were charging my Note 2 and a iPhone5 at same time so the manufacturer's claim of high output appears to be true).

I also like the design and build of it feels a bit more solid than your average car charger purchased from Asia (e.g. DX or MP). Overall, I am pleased with this product and would purchase again if/when this breaks down or if I need another one.

Many USB car chargers claim to charge two devices... very few actually can. Most of the chargers that looks like this one have either two 1Amp plugs or one 2.1Amp and one 1Amp or some other variation. You see, the problem is that if you have two devices that need more than 1Amp, then you're not really charging them both. This charger provides two 2.1A slots, so go ahead and charge your ipad and galaxy pad... it will work just fine :D
