Review on HITRENDS Power Strip Surge Protector with 3 πŸ’‘ Outlets, 3 USB Ports, and 5ft Extension Cord - Black by James Lesley

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The maximum total USB current is 6A (30W), not 2.4A x 6 (6*2.4A) or 5V at 2.4A each.

The seller had to in indicate in the description that this device only supplies all USB ports with a total current of 6.0A. I was led to believe that there is a maximum of 2.4A. is delivered to each USB port (i.e. a total of 72W or 14.4A) when you are only getting 2.4A of power on two of the 6 USB ports, with all 6 USB ports loaded and it's possible. On the plus side was the fast delivery and the product was well packaged. I don't know if the overcurrent switch will trip, as another reviewer noted, but be careful. Plugging in plugs into the device isn't very convenient, but it still works. Remember that 6 combo USB ports only allow a maximum of 6 amps and not 14.4 amps (i.e. 6*2.4 amps). If you need a more powerful device, look elsewhere.

Pros
  • A sea of positive emotions
Cons
  • Expensive
