Review on Optimized Belkin Store and Charge: πŸ”Œ AC Classroom Charging Station for Laptops and Tablets by Jonathan Partridge

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Transformers are too large to fit in cradle

Not present Work with chrome books! The power cords for all my chrome books are AC cords that go to transformers and then to smaller cords that connect to a charger. The transformers are so big that they don't fit in the charging station. I could only put 6 chrome books on each of the charging stations if I didn't want all the transformers hanging down the back and the cable jungle hanging down the back. For me as a classroom teacher, spending hours customizing this EXPENSIVE piece of plastic with a built-in extension cord was a frustrating waste of time. As soon as I adapt the devices to my needs, they serve their purpose. However, I wouldn't recommend devices for storing and organizing Chromebooks. I had to buy milk crates and go that route. I could make memory blocks in less time and at a lower cost!

Pros
  • Small footprint and surface mount allows unit to be securely mounted on a table or cart, 10 convenient surge-protected outlets fit most charging adapters
Cons
  • Negative present
