Revainrating 5 out of 5

Decent desktop power solution

First of all, I should note that this is a review of the "Type-C Charger” model. normal crawling under a table or behind furniture to find an open outlet on the wall or in an extension cord. Pros: - Fits when AC power is only needed temporarily, which is often the case for me as I work with many different types of electronic devices on a daily basis. Tower. - A large diameter power button that glows when activated. Easy to find by touch even in the dark. There is also a small LED on the side that also shows the position of the power switch. Cons: - Due to the light weight and heavy cable of the tower, the extremely thin rubber feet are not enough to prevent slipping, especially with repeated use. devices connected to the network. I fixed this by attaching it to my desk with velcro so it can be removed if needed. Despite what the product description says, it definitely doesn't offer fast charging. I tested this on my Pixel phone with fast charging using each of the USB-C and USB-A ports on the tower, indicating only standard charging was occurring. To explore this further, the specs section of the manual lists the charging power at 10W. It typically takes about three times as long to fast charge phones, and much more in the case of laptops. Questionable surge protection. The product description says "avoid use during thunderstorms" which is the most common cause of power surges. I find this odd as it also claims to be a surge protector. After all, it gets the job done, although I think it's overpriced as it can't offer all the features claimed here.

Pros
  • nice thing
Cons
  • sad packaging
