- Love this, but don't the plugs for most things reduce the amps, or watts, or whatever...a little bit? So things won't fry? - miffed67 Jul 18, 12:35 5
  - the transformers to step down the voltage for the usb plugs is built in -- nm - znufrii Jul 18, 12:43 2
    - Wow, cool! -- nm - miffed67 Jul 18, 14:20
