This may not be a big deal for most, but I wanted to clarify for others. Please correct me if I'm wrong...

Nevertheless, for that price range, this is pretty good indeed.
It charges the device very very slowly to the point where I don't think its worth using it as a charger. I found it best to use as a supplement supply to the internal battery.
