In summary, the top two USB-C ports can output 100 W combined, the middle two USB-C ports can output 15 W combined, and the bottom 2 USB-A ports can output 12 W combined. When mixed (devices plugged into all 3 rows at once), the top row gets 73 W, the second row gets 15 W, and the bottom row gets 12 W.
Moving on from that topic, I couldn't find anything in the listing about Programmable Power Supply (PPS). Only Power Delivery (PD). Based on that, it should mean that while this charger can supply a lot of power for devices like laptops, it may NOT be able to fully maximize the charging speeds for devices like phones and tablets that utilize finer adjustments offered by PPS. Experts, please correct me if I'm wrong.

I don't trust most criticisms though. I see so many reviews of products from people trying to use a usb-a port for example to get 100w charging or complaining the a-port isn't as fast as the c-port or whatever the case may be.
Sadly the people that aren't savvy enough to recognize these reviews are the ones who need to the most
That's why it exists. It cannot be hurt by being used as designed and if it can you want to find that out asap not way down the line. So connect 9 MacBooks or whatever you have to do to fully load all ports if you want to test it out and after that use it without concern.
The "dynamic" ports mean the charging speed will be adjusted, up to 100w in either 1 at a time, 50w in A &B simultaneously, or 75w on A & 25 on B, whatever the devices request, up to a max 100 (on the dynamic ports) and 15 per port on the static ports.
Anker makes a similar product with fewer ports that has a very flat low profile design, very nice.
Only reason I'm holding out is I'm tempted to buy only devices with USB C PD ***AND PPS*** support going forward…and ideally with a 240W output on every single port 😂
Do I own a device that can charge at 100W let alone 240W ? No? Why do you ask ? 😂

This thing will make your desk look like a mess if you can't hide it. Would be better if it had a mechanism to secure it under a desk.

The used like new at $55 is tempting.
FYI, If you need a good usbc cable, the apple woven 1m is awesome @67w and by far the most flexible high quality usb c cable I've used, or the apple woven 2m, which is beefy but still fairly flexible and will do up to 240w supposedly. My Lenovo Thinkpad charges fine on the 67w apple woven and same for my wife's MacBook.
I tested this power station with my 240w usbc cable to see how it would do charging a 2kw lifepo4 power station that has a 140w usbc input/output and it was charging it between 98-100 watts, so good stuff. 🙂👍
