It seems I'm Always Charging Something. Cell Phone, e-Cigarette, MP3 Player, etc.

I got Free Up with having to Constantly Swapping Wall Warts to make room for this or so I could plug in That.

So I bought one of These and it Greatly Simplified my Life.

Ever since there was USB PTs I've heard this warning about not being worth the risk to your computer to stick an ecig on it. I've asked if anyone has fried their computer. Guess how many answers I've got saying they have destroyed their computer? Zero.

As far as cars go that's a different story. Plenty of ecigs go up in flames in cars. Don't know the exact whys of it (leaving the ecig in a hot car, cheap ecigs, cheap chargers, bad power, etc.) but charging in a car should not be taken lightly.

That said, I just saved a ton of money on my car insurance by leaving the scene.

Plug into savings, plug into convenience, plug into U-Socket- the outlet of the future!

I kinda don't like to Post Links to things I haven't used. I don't want someone to Buy Something thinking it is what I bought Only to have it Not Work for them.

There are a Ton of USB outlets out there. Some I'm sure are Better than Others. Someone should do some Research and Read Some Reviews before they get Anything like this.
