Default Litco Systems Alpha 4

Three ports for $390. Heck, you can get a used Alpha on e-Bay for the same money, and have 4 ports, a great user interface, and have it all in one box

Seriously, I've tried the multiple charger route. It sucks! It was more expensive, and very inconvenient. I tried so hard not to get an Alpha because I didn't want to play the games, but eventually just gave in. I found out spending the 20 minutes of inconvenience needed to get one was worth it. It saved me the grief of carrying 3 chargers that I paid more money for, and the mess of cig Y adapters to power them, and the fun of moving the mess from plane to plane. That eat up the 20 minutes, plus another 50 times that over the years.
