A random charger I bought came with a cable with USB A on one end and USB micro-B, Lightning, and USB C on the other end.
Is it safe to plug in more than one device?
My first assumption is no, but if it's a power-only cable, they can't negotiate anything and you're just getting 5V in parallel, right?
