    Do you mean the TW port to the Universe, Space, & Beyond ?? I have no idea what port you are asking about.

    Otherwise, with no pic, it's purely speculative.

    I'm not sure how much current it supplies, but it does charge what you plug into it.

    It works about the same as plugging your phone into your computer. It will charge it, but at a slower rate than the wall charger.

    Works as a charger. I use it for music. Load a flash drive with music and plug it in. Easiest method for me.

    I believe it was confirmed it only puts out half an amp. iPad charging blocks for example out out 1.5. That's why the older wall chargers seem to take forever to charge a new iPad.

    you probably won't notice it charging unless you're still using a flip phone
