update the last time i made a keen observation about the posted Specs the seller chimed to clear things up
the Specs are not correct i do not thinks its 5.4 in x 5.4 x 1.4 inplease read this POST for possible info on this item
even Apples 87w adapter is only 3.15 x 3.15 x 1.1 in
if you want a cheap SMALLER one look at the item reviewed in this post from AMAZON that is $20 and 3.15 x 3.15 x 1.18 in BUT I THING THEY ARE THE SAME
but imo both above are unknown
i would at least consider the 90w Ravpower 2 Port that is only 2. 5 x 2. 5 x 1. 2in but cost lot more
or the Aukey 100w 1 port 2.24 x 2.24 x 1.26 in
in the past i picked up the Ravpower 90w Renewed 2 port for $22.25 must resist this deal with only 1 port and for the size
Thanks OP

It appears you either have to use paypal, or get the Amex email when monoprice actually charges your card (my guess).
One was a external battery with 2 lightning cables for 10 maybe. The battery died after a few charges.
The other is a USB 3.0 hub for a few dollars. The removable cable got loose connection very soon and happened to both the units I purchased.
So it appears to me that monoprice this is how monoprice getting rid of their troubled inventories.
I still ordered two of this charger since it is less than 10 after Amex promo. I am going to use it for Pi 4 so not a big deal if it turn out not to be great.
Wtf.
This is basically stealing.

FYI its quite LARGE @ 5.4 in x 5.4 x 1.4 in MAYBE SMALLER
even Apples 87w adapter is only 3.15 x 3.15 x 1.1 in
if you wan t a cheap SMALLER one look for
"USB-IF Certified 85W USB-C Power Adapter USB C PD Charger, Included 6ft Max 100W USB-IF Certified USB C to C Charging Cable"
you can find one from newegg or AMAZON that is $20 and 3.15 x 3.15 x 1.18 in

Monoprice Obsidian Speed 85W is not certified. They have some kind of 30/32/32/39/60 watt certified charger. I'm sure if these chargers are designed and manufactured by the Chinese OEM that does all their USB-IF chargers, they *should* be fine, but they aren't certified yet.
edit:
Here is a review of the product: https://www.amazon.com/gp/custome...dctrvw_srp [amazon.com]
Based on the OEM part number posted on Monoprice, it is ARTODM85, which Fantany brand also resales on Amazon, claims has a TID 1020059 (cannot be found in USB site).
