And a good idea, since if you are using your computer or laptop USB port, that is really NOT a good idea. :)

You can also get a *powered* USB hub........that plugs into wall and will handle 8+ devices. I use one, since I have cameras, vape gear, kindle, external hard drive, printers, etc. which will not all fit onto my laptop usb's.
(powered means it has it's own wall plug to power it, so it is not running off your computer power).

Being in the IT field and having USB ports available almost everywhere I am there is no reason at all to not use a PC or Laptop to power a USB device. That is what they are designed for and with the minimal voltage/amperage to charge a MOD there are many devices used regularly that have more current draw.

Consider it more of an informed opinion but I have used a workstation to charge everything from cameras and iPods to a smart phones. I have even seen secretaries using USB Ports on PC's to run desktop fans and I have a telescoping lamp for my laptop in low light areas.
