I was ready to post a "When will Xtar make a VP4?" and then I went to their website and see it is already out. Strange there was never an announcement for this and as far as I can tell according to the Amazon reviews, it was released at least as far back as December 2014, maybe earlier?
I was really hoping it was just like having 2 VP2 chargers in one unit but it has the drawback of just 2 bays charging at 1A at a time. So I guess for me at least having 4 bays charging at 1A at the same time will require 2 separate VP2 chargers which costs a bit more $70+ USD compared to $39.99 USD for the VP4.
Any reason Xtar couldn't have had all 4 bays charging up to 1A? Their XP4 allows all 4 bays to charge @ 1A, so why not the VP4?
