For those of you who don't like using Amazon or are on a budget; here is a charging hub from Aliexpress (China) : http://www.aliexpress.com/item/12-Port- ... 94696.html

NOTE: Things from AliExpress can take a while to reach their destinations. Usually 2 - 6 weeks for delivery time. It is completely safe to buy from AliExpress. Let me know if you have any questions.

These are all USB Hubs. I would steer clear of these because they tend to have maximum Amps output per port. USB Charging Hubs are usually best to go with. I have added a link to one above.

 True, they can take a while to change all your phones at the same time because they only have a max ammount of power, but if you keep your devices plugged in with the hub while it's making money you won't loose any battery life, and at night while your sleeping or your out of town one day you can keep them charged. So your statement is true, but there are good ways to use these

 I don't think you fully understood my reply. I was suggesting not to use USB HUBS but instead to use USB Charging Hubs. USB Hubs plug into your computers USB port and offer a way to expand how many flash drives, external hard drives, etc are plugged into your computer. USB Charging Hubs don't have a USB cable for plugging into your computer. They are only made to charge USB devices.

I'd be careful opting for the cheapest ones. Obviously, the more ports - the better, but also if it's too cheap they can often overheat, charge slowly, draw unneeded power, etc.

 True, but since the ones you are talking about are so cheap, you can just buy it again. It will also probably take a long time for it to overheat.

 My cheap Chinese 15 port has been working for 3 months and there's no heat issue.

 Be careful, three months is where you would to start having issues
