update July 2020 crashing after 2 years of weekly use. Doesn't charge my iPad anymore. Apple Cord works fine. Sigh. Worked great while it lasted.——Cheap and works great. It doesn't look terrible either, so that's a bonus. I have this in my nightstand drawer plugged into a USB power hub for my iPad. Robust construction. Good price. I would like to be able to pay a little more for something a little better quality and made of aluminium, but haven't found this yet.
