gradually building a collection of mods, 4 x mvp20watts, 1 mvp 2.0 and a tesla nano 60w.

Currently charge one at a time in a 950mah sub wall adaptor.

Looking at getting a 2amp charger with the tesla nano in mind, I see that multi usb port adapters can be had.

Also, read that the sub amp outlet doesn't really matter if too high, apparently the usb cable won't draw anymore than the device can handle. Never realised this. Is this correct or do I have to make sure not over 2 amps for the tesla nano, not over 1 amp for the mvp 20w's etc???

Would be nice to be able to charge 3 or even 4 of the batteries at the same time...

Any advice...

The current is drawn by the charged device, not pushed by the wall adapter. It's always good to have an overspeced wall adapter as that will lessen excessive heat build-up in the adapter. Note that all usb cables won't be able to handle two amps. That's not dangerous, simply means that you won't get the full two amp charging unless the cable is able to handle it.

I have a similar charger (It's an "EasyAcc") and it's really handy to have. I have one at home, and I've been thinking about buying one to keep at work.
For a battery charger, I'd recommend an Xtar VP4. It runs around $40 (You can find it for a little less, but I've never heard of some of the vendors carrying it), and from the measurements I've taken, it's very accurate.
