Bought one of these on a trip a while back. Had an alarm clock and periodic cellphone usage for about 8 months without issues.
After that the USB charging got wonky. It's a little spotty when using 1 port and generally can't do more than one port at all they'll just all stop working entirely if trying to use more than 1.

At around the one year mark the power outlets themselves started doing the same thing. Had 1 outlet that still worked fine so kept the alarm clock plugged in there. The other two outlets sometimes worked fine and other times just didn't work at all.

Didn't bring it back with me so never got around to seeing what went wrong with it or volt testing anything.
It made it the full year without catching fire though so that's pretty good for a random non UL certified product.

One of the phones being charged periodically on it did end up with a fried battery that would no longer hold charge but I have no evidence that it the was the Anker things fault it's just as likely it was a defective battery.

I will say that whatever your idea of how small this product is you're probably wrong. Think like novelty fuzzy dice that hang from mirrors. It's as wide as most wall outlet plates and is a cube so sticks out that far as well and blocks both plugs.

This looked like a viable purchase until;

"at up to 20W via the USB-C port, or 12W via the USB-A ports (15W total shared output across all 3 ports)."

So does the USB-C do 20 watts, or 15? That wording, '15w total shared output across all 3 ports' is making me lose interest.

Or should their technical writer have said, "15w per port when all three in use?"

Usually it means 20 watts if you only use USB-C but if you plug in two things, either USB C plus A or two As, or three things total, it's 15W max across all three combined.

Is it international? Does it support 240V input? Can you please check product label? Thank you!

I have a couple and the USB-C port stopped working on one. Was assuming it was quality based on the brand, but not impressed.

I thought these were the same as the two I already had. If you buy these, be aware these plug directly into the wall, they do not have a long cord like a very similar model. No one's fault except mine, and its still useful for the price.

this product



what i expected
