AnkerPrime Charging Station, 240W 8-in-1 USB-C Power Strip, 5 ft Detachable Extension Cord, 2 AC, 4 USB-C, 2 USB-A, for iPhone 16/15, Desktop Accessory for MacBook, Home, Office (Not for Travel)

Anker is a known and trusted brand in my opinion. When I saw this “power station” while looking for a good multi USB charger I immediately took interest because it was an Anker product.Upon receiving it, I began to really see the use cases and various applications I could utilize it for.The actual AC wall plug is a bit bulky and larger than I anticipated but does correlate to the 240W charging capabilities.The ability to detach the (bulky) wall-plug portion is very handy as I will be using this as a travel charger for work. To many times I have been in a hotel and wishing I had a short extension cord to be able to plug multiple things in closer to the bed or desk. This solves THAT, plus the hassle of having to carry multiple power bricks for the multitude of devices that I carry and use daily!What’s even better is that this power station will automatically throttle power based on the device that is being charged!!Need a high watt charge for an iPad? DONE!Need a lower watt charge for a mouse or keyboard? DONEI highly recommend downloading the Anker mobile App!! It uses WiFi and/or Bluetooth to connect to your phone wirelessly for added functionality and features. In addition to monitoring real-time power usage, you can set timers (like sleep timers) for each USB port AND THE AC power outlets as well! There is a lot of other information and additional features within the app that make using the power station even more practical! (Pro-tip: you can even turn the display off!)As with every Anker product, it is a bit on the pricier side, but the quality of the products is (in my experience) always very high!I wish there was an option/setting to make the screen automatically scroll through the three information screens so that you can monitor everything without having to press the button or use the app.So far I am really impressed with this product, and I have already recommended it to a friend who is a commercial airline pilot that travels a lot and he has already ordered one!!I will update this review as I use it more, but extremely happy with it so far!!

I am a fanboy of Anker products. I saw this item and it was received overnight after I placed my order. I put it to test as I had many other Anker items ordered and also some items that needed charging. Very nice specifications:2 switchable AC ports4 UCB-C ports2 USB-A portsI would not describe this as a portable travel charger but more of a home charging solution to charge several devices simultaneously (e.g. for a family or a geek like me with gazillion devices/gadgets).The one CON to this device is the bulky power plug which can possibly not attach well to a loose power outlet. The bulky plug is to ensure the delivery of the specified 240 Watts. But I wish there was a better design.I tested the device to capacity, and it performed well without overheating. I have only had it in my possession for two weeks. Trying to find a good use for it at home to perform long term reliability test and also help with charging many devices.The built-in display is an excellent tool for troubleshooting charging cable issues, power consumption. Three different display statistics can be chosen. I have yet to connect through Bluetooth and enhance usage through the Anker App.

The media could not be loaded. This thing is a beast when it comes to power output. It can supercharge your phone. I didn't even know my phone had that faster speed! You can literally watch the charge go up, and it's done in no time. The screen is nice for monitoring output or if your item is still charging. Having the 2 outlets on my desk is nice, so I don't have to run wires under my desk or to a far-away outlet. All this in a small form factor, so it fits right in on the desk and takes up little space. Highly recommend! *It does have a MASSIVE power brick FYI lol

I love this charging station. Albeit it is not for traveling due to the weight of the item. I've used for well over a year now and the plug ins are just as tight as when it was new.Definitely a brand I will stick with!Thank you.

This is a unique product in terms of what you get for charging. You have USB-C ports, USBA ports and two 120 volt ports as well. And it can charge a seriously high speed. I used it to charge my Anker portable battery at 140 Watts and it works like a charm.It charges my phone with super fast 2.0 at 45 watts flawlessly and charges my HP PC at between 100 and 130 Watts, and you can use multiple ports together at very high speeds. You have connectivity through Wi-Fi or Bluetooth and you can control the type of charging on the outputs if you wish. The control is extremely granular, something that you don't see in other chargers. It offers an awful lot for the money, and I'd get to see any issue with it with one exception .If you're charging a device and you plug another device in it stops the charging on all devices and resets, which is no big deal, but nevertheless it will interrupt the charging cycle momentarily while it resets to accommodate the additional device that just got plugged in.The cable between the wall plug and the charger is a monster, designed to handle 15 amps at 120 volts...It's thick and heavy. The wall plug adapter is as well very large and very heavy, nothing that I wouldn't have expected though. This thing is designed to run a toaster and charge your devices all at the same time, and it's typical Anker quality, really top rated stuff.I feel comfortable and secure knowing that this thing isn't going to blow up on me or catch fire. It's not cheap but you can often find it on sale and it's well worth the price. It's not really very portable, but it does make for a fantastic stationary charging station.
