Customer Review
Reviewed in the United States on April 3, 2024
Speed charges one higher end device at a time and can refill several devices at lower speeds. PD up to 67W works only with proper cable (buy extra here, 2 for $10, or get with your phone charger). Gets warm. Device and LED remain powered always, energy waste and potential safety hazard, minus 1 star for design over function. Seems mostly well designed, though. Blue color is a pleasant idea, though unobstrusive, thanks!
- Why we like it:
This almost replaces our dell and phone charger adapters. Why almost? Our higher end chargers are 65W and 90W, this one delivers 67W maximum, that is if no other devices are attached. So either full power delivery for a higher end phone or laptop, one at a time, or slower divided charging. Also, our dedicated chargers on US and European currents, this doesn't (125V only).
The 65W Dell's run out of battery after a few hours work while connected. Maybe because the cable can slip (not too great for battery lifetime) or maybe because I refilled the phone's battery in between.
- Design thoughts:
Looks pleasant and feels clean to touch. It's really highly compact, think very slim wallet size plus cable.
The cable on this strip is rather short. Plus for mobility, explicit minus for home or office use. An extra foot would go a long way towards longlivety of expensive devices charging plugs and not tripping up anyone. It's really a tabletop strip as is. The flat plug would be even nicer if it weren't.
Mechanism that pushes out AC outlets works well in trial week, though not super smooth. Time only will show if this is a fancy look minus or durable plus.
Stands on very small silicone feet, should provide minimal ventilation on smooth surfaces (and it needs that). Doesn't slip easily. Rough upper surface might also help heat dissipate, except on a sunny desert desk.
- Minus star:
No on/off switch and always-on LED are going against the time. Especially considering this device gets *warm*, more so than a cheap power strip plus Dell/Huawei adapters we previously used (which were much bulkier in total). Probably not too warm to use in furniture, except we live in a desert state and should not take chances here. A kids home may consider this a safety hazard.
We added a camera slider to block out the LED. It's somewhat less intrusive than most, still disturbs us at night in the bedroom.
Very unexpected minus that it doesn't handle 220-240V and hence can't be used in most of the world's power systems. What a shame with such a compact device to be unable to travel internationally to South America, Europe, Asia, AUS, NZ. What a waste of potential!
- Personal health environment:
Device smells a little of hot electronics. There may be some high frequency or not; our ears are getting old. I seem to hear minimal pitch, partner doesn't. Again, almost all devices have some and this one doesn't bother me (insect repellers, car systems, some Intel CPUs do). I can test objectively if you need to know. Cases material mix personally feels cleaner than most electronics, no inherent smell, minimal UV fluorescence (may be a recycled mix). I find this device alright and on the upper end for power strips this price range.
- Short: We recommend you get this to supercharge one device at a time and use while you travel non-international. 125V/60Hz: Only works in USA, middle America, Japan. It's very compact and multifunctional, 2 each grounded AC, USB A and C, pretty in violet/grey blue. Cable is on short side, flat plug. It seems just sturdy enough for careful daily use and powerful enough to be future proof for several device generations.

Like it. LED always on. No off switch. Gets warm. 125V/60Hz only, powerful 15A.
