Stromhungrige devices with USB or micro-USB connector is there in every modern household heap. Many of them go with us on the trip and need electricity for hours in hotel rooms. Often, two sockets are there but only maximum and you must decide which device is most important. As well, the sockets and connectors are usually busy in their own home or in the Office. A smart travel charger such as the 4-port USB charger from iClever can provide remedy. But also manages the small charger to provide all units with sufficient power and he is fast enough even though he has no quick charge function? These and some other questions, I went to this test and have thoroughly tested the 4-port charger for you.
Packaging and delivery
arrived after two days delivery time of BoostCube 4-port Wallcharger by iClever with me. On the stable soda carton, the product name is printed in a subtle Brown. In the box, a plastic blister is by charting the USB charger.

The four USB slots with smart ID technology
all four ports are equipped with the SmartID technology. The charger detects the end device (Tablet, Smartphone, MP3, etc.), as well as its needs and adjusts the required energy, which ensures the maximum charging efficiency. However, a quick charge function does not offer the 4-port charger. To obtain the optimum result, the manufacturer recommends:
- a short original USB charging cable of the end device manufacturer
- a power access in the range of 100-240 volts / 50 to 60 Hertz
optics and processing of the USB charger
the iClever charger is held with light grey print of the logo and the specifications on the bottom in black. The four USB slots are not lit, but directly on a small green LED that lights up when the unit to the mains supply is connected to is located. The charger is slim designed and directed standing to be operated. Because the case is very narrow, and no F & u UML; ße were placed at the bottom, it is unfortunately more often around. The long sides are rounded off. The two sides are sharper edges that are not dangerous because you touch it on the rubber sheath.
Compatible devices
the USB charger is equipped with the SmartID and recognizes your Smartphone, Tablet, or what you via a USB cable to download independently. The charger automatically supplies the device with the maximum energy to recharge. All marketed devices can be loaded using a USB cable, are compatible with the charger.
The practice test
the black plastic housing is unprotected, left and right, so at the entrance of the power cable and USB ports and arrived with a small scratch on me. The rubber skin, which tightly covered the rest, protects the device from damage, and feels very good. Unfortunately, the charger without legs is equipped, which he easily overturn. It is safest to use it just lying. The green light indicating that the unit is powered, is very small, discreet and is only perceived, if you look In the test were exactly a Philips Raga MP3 player, an iPad air 2 and an iPhone 6 s a Samsung Galaxy edge about the 4 port charger loaded GoGear. The travel charger is well suited for transport. About the size of a Zigrettenschachtel and very light, it fits easily into any handbag or in the luggage. An instruction manual in German, a carrying case and a protective case for the plug would have been great, but do you get 1,50 metre power cord allows some room for what concerns the place to set up the charger already very much for his Geld.Das for the price and is still space in the luggage. The space savings in the full connector and in the kitchen, there is only a free socket in the, make very positive effect. This little gadget is hardly a burden and also here to save space. I would have but rather, if one of the four ports with a quick charge function had been equipped. During the charging process you can hear no disturbing whistle or buzzing noise and the appliance is not heated even after prolonged usage, in which hung two smartphones, Tablet and an MP3 player on him. All devices were faster than charging with the adapter manufacturer despite lack of quick charge feature. Only Oringinal charging cable were used during the test except for the iPhone from the respective device manufacturer. The iPhone 6 s a short No. name replacement cord was used for a cable break in the original charging cable. When the iPad 2 air cargo four hours took place faster than I'm otherwise used. At the edge of the Galaxy and iPhone 6s charging took about an hour less and the MP3 player GoGear Raga was 40 minutes.
Conclusion
The time savings that brings the use of the 4-port travel charger of iclever with is impressive. With maximum protection against overvoltage, overload and overheating, the charger provides a safe space for four devices. The maximum power divided by the smart technology independently and adapts to the needs of your device. Sure, here is a quick charge function with would be on board, if an optimum charger, but the obtained hours with the space savings together, make the charger a completely good bargain.
