Bright useless LED lamp

Another product with useless LED lighting. It is also not mentioned anywhere in the description. Not suitable for use in the bedroom as it glows very brightly. I don't know why all these products need light. I don't need to know when my power cord is plugged into the wall. Extremely annoying "feature"

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • Some flaws

Works good but stupidly bright LED

Great item! Very well built with the high quality typical of Anker. The only annoying thing is the terribly bright LED, which according to the manufacturer should be the brightest in the room. I had to wrap it in electrical tape so it wouldn't burn through closed eyelids and scorch someone's retinas. Otherwise ridiculous (and totally unnecessary) LED solarium, 5 stars.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • Big and chunky

The plug sticks out on the right

Pretty useless since the power plug doesn't rotate, if you have something directly to the right of the socket you can't connect this adapter. Swivel.Edit An Anker 6-8-20A representative contacted me and suggested another product that would solve the problems I was having with this faucet. I can honestly say that I can't recall any product manufacturer ever contacting me directly to make sure I was happy with their products. Amazing customer service!

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Nothing

Perfect addition to my desk WFH

I thought I needed some spare plugs on my desk so I don't have to dig under the wire tray to connect additional electronics. A table can cost over $50. I was able to buy this anchor extension for a fraction of that price. Then I was able to attach it to my desk in my home office with some tape. Now I have convenient access to power for standard plugs and all USB devices. Advantages: - Easy to install - Quality and guarantee from Anker - Low cost. Cons: - No USB Type-C (available on more…

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • No breaker

Large, but the USB ports fail when charging the phone.

Large size with lots of ports. The main downside is that shortly after I use the USB ports to charge my Galaxy phone, it stops charging and I can no longer charge those ports. I ended up plugging in the power adapter for my phone and it shorted out the power adapter for my phone. This was the second article to have the same problem with the USB ports. Until this issue is fixed, you'd better skip this step. Anker is usually of excellent quality, but this item is the worst Anker product I have…

Pros
  • Power Strips & Surge Protectors
Cons
  • Unsafe

Bright blue light is a terrible design choice

It's no secret that you should stop looking at blue light devices a few hours before bed, as it disrupts your brain's production of the important sleep hormone, melatonin. Why on earth would Anker add blue light here when you'll most likely be using it in the bedroom to charge your devices? You may think it's small and insignificant, but at night it kind of lights up half the room. Not to mention that unlike other non-illuminated models, the power strip is 100% powered. That annoying design…

Pros
  • Accessories and Accessories
Cons
  • Expensive

It works, but what's that weird buzzing noise?

I'm a big fan of Anker to be honest, but lately I've been a bit disappointed. I have many cables, chargers and batteries. Bought for myself, wife and sons. The quality has been great, but manufacturing tolerances seem to be disappearing lately. I bought another model called PowerCube. I liked it so much that I bought two more. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07D25RSWX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o09_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 After a few months only 2/3 are working. I suspect this is questionable…

Pros
  • Power strips
Cons
  • Something different
