Better described as a power strip than a surge protector tho. 300 joules is not much to brag about. OTOH this thing is pretty tiny. And I agree these right angle flat AC power plug kick ass.
edit, oh I clicked back to the 5ft one and it shows one for 15.99 which isn't bad at all if you don't want 2

The 10 footer is on sale for 25 for one. Still not too bad for something like this with an extra long cord.

edit - but then again right on the front page it says 240v..... I dunno. I would need this as well as my work datacenter is 220v power
Anker used to be on of the few that was anti this practice, but it must be a practice easily fallen into by companies getting ahead anymore.

The problem I have with the USB ports has been reported multiple times.
When you connect or disconnect a device from the USB A or USB C ports, it de-energizes all the USB ports. You then have to unplug all the USB attached devices, reattach, and hope that all the devices will receive a charge.
It was not straightforward finding out how to notify Anker, but once I did through their website they sent me a new unit, after some troubleshooting, and after I provided a detailed step by step explanation of how to recreate the no charging issue.
The problem is the new unit had the same issues, so I am sure they know they have a manufacturing problem with some defects. When I notified Anker the replacement unit was also defective, they said I should provide them a video recreating the problem and load it up to there website.
To quote Mick Jagger, I just don't have that much Jam.
I just want one unit which works properly and I'm happy to return the other ones. I am not a part of their QA team.
I have purchased other Anker products in the past but there is no way I'm going to purchase anymore, it is their job to provide products which are not defective and test them. I am not made happier by having two units which don't work properly.
