Have this at home. Purchased it a couple of years back. A great piece of kit from a well regarded brand. Charges pretty much anything you can throw at it. Obviously you'll need to add on something to avail of the free delivery.

bullet point #2:

* Fast Charging Technology: PowerIQ and VoltageBoost combine to provide the fastest possible charge up to 2.4 amps per port or 8 amps overall (Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 not supported. For QC2.0 charging, please see Anker's 18W USB Wall Charger).

Doesn't have QC2 or the latest 3.0 spec but it is still fast charging as most would know it. I would just like to add that all of Anker's charging products are extremely high quality. You have to be careful with the 2+ port USB high-current chargers as they are much more likely to malfunction/short/catch fire. Anker has been proves to use very good safety components and traces on their PCB's. Just my two cents.

I bought the 2 port version from Amazon a while ago, having done a lot of research. Anker chargers have an excellent reputation.

Argos is selling a Phillips one for €14.99. Stock isn't great though. Nearly all gone.

I have one of these (actually right in front of me!) For whatever reason- only 2 of the 5 ports charge (and they fast charge- same speed as the Microsoft fast charger). I was going to send it back for replacement- I got it from Amazon originally- but its out of warranty. Its useful even with only 2 working charge ports on it.

I know it sounds odd but the charger has a reset feature for non functioning USB ports. Unplug the device for 5 mins and plug it back in. You might get lucky,

Thanks for the suggestion- its not a reset though (its been moved between counties with no effect whatsoever). The two fast-charge ports are still working though- so its not going to be dumped by any means.

No but this similar ravpower model does, you lose one port overall but the toproblem port one supports the latest fast charge tech. I picked one up a few weeks ago and it's great.
