Alas - it all boils down to convenience for the manufacturer and for me to buy new stuff.

If it is something that stays plugged in, no problem. But if it is something like your phone that you unplug frequently, some of the alternate USB ports charge slowly.

Many power bars have usb jacks now, eliminating the need for the transformer (big White cube). <br />The transformers are a convenience for the manufacturer, allowing them to use all the same pieces, except the transformer, no matter where in the world they are selling a product. The transformer is the only part that needs CSA approval to be sold in Canada.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04049582213773393152noreply@blogger.com
