I just got a Pinecil soldering iron and also recently got a new USB-C-powered laptop and was researching 65W USB-C chargers and came across a Baseus unit that's gotten some decent reviews that was basically everything I was looking for and then some. It's GaN and rated up to 65W, and comes with 2 USB-C ports (each supporting PD 3.0 65W charging), 2 USB-A ports (one of which supports 60W & 18W QC fast charging), 2 120V AC outlets, and is corded, which I prefer, and comes with a 6' USB-C to USB-C cable (not silicone though). It's normally $59.99 but just dropped down to $49.99, with an additional clickable 20% off coupon to bring it down to $40. I snagged one right away.

This is not an endorsement as I've never used this or anything by Baseus, just letting people know about this deal.
For those who want something with more power output, they offer a similar model with up to 100W output from a single port, or shared among all 4 ports:

It's normally $100 but there's a lightning deal for the next 7 or so hours putting it at $64. Again, not an endorsement, just letting people know about a deal.
And for those who don't need or want the additional USB-A port, power cord and 2 AC outlets, prefer a plug-in and want to save $10, there's this $30 lightning deal going on today:

I picked up two baseus charging blocks in 2021 that are still doing great. I think it's a great alternative to Anker that doesn't break the bank. I use them to charge my surface pro 7 so I don't have to lug around the normal charger. I've had to replace the cords cause I keep mangling them but the blocks are good.
I really like the version without the AC outlets. Seems like good quality. Glad you pointed out that the outlets limit it to 120V.
And I realize that it doesn't support 220V, but I don't travel abroad that often and when I do I'll just take my laptop's charger and some standard USB adapters. This item is for specific use cases that don't apply to everyone, which is why they, like most companies, have a whole line of products for different needs. I only heard of them a few days ago as I've never bought a standalone USB charger, always relying on whatever came with my devices.
