Default 12-Volt Dual Socket Adapter With Dual USB Ports

I am looking for a 12-Volt Dual Socket Adapter with Dual USB Ports. I did pick up one from Wal-Mart. I think it is Bell brand, it it looks pretty cheap. Anyway, so far, the best I have found is from Wagan. I am just wondering if anybody has used their devices and if they are good quality or are they cheap? The first URL shows the USB "now offers 2.1A USB output as we move forward with the increase use of tablets
and e-readers!" That might lead me to believe that I should choose this one. Or does anybody here have a suggestion for a better one?

I use 1 of these daily to power a Droid X and razor Maxx & iphone. So far ive had no problems with voltage issues. You have to be careful because some cell phones and other devices are very picky about that voltage.

I have both of these and they both are great

This is a little pricey compared to a lot of others, but the quality is great.
