You need to check the total output for the USB. I believe they are 5w divided. So if you have 4 items plugged into the unit, they will be 1.25 watts apiece. Also the usb ‘s are not individually controlled. It is either all on or off.
There may have been an update that I am not aware of so this may not be gospel

It's still all on or all off. The little USB fans I have don't require much to run. Deciding on whether to use all of them or just get a larger fan.
