Hi, I see that Belkin extension cords come with 2 USB ports. however the specs would say 2.4A (combined) or 2.4A (shared). Does this mean that if I plug a Tablet into each USB port at the same time, each Tablet only gets 1.2A of power?

Not sure about Belkin. My Schneider comes with 2 USB ports but it is indicated clearly that 1 port is 2.1A and another is 1.0A.

BTW, invest in Anker maybe? The new one has 12A! Charges my tablet and handphone freaking fast.

Do you actually think the charging time reduced by that much with the indication of fully charged is really fully charged the Li-ion battery?

What you got are probably a charger quicker charge the battery to reach the required voltage before voltage drop cut in then forgo the saturation charge cycle.

Using this charger, you won't get a fully charged battery.
