After Black Friday, it is now $14.99 with an additional 5% off coupon for ~$14.24. Doesn't seem like much of a deal now.
I messed up the coupon code and bought it for MSRP. Even at the Black...

Kinda stating the obvious here, but since it's an extension cord too, you could just plug it in and then probably charge other devices on the laptop's USB ports too.

You know standards get revisions, right? That hasn't been true since spec 1.1 in 2007.
The reason cd burners used two was because they had to assume the output was the minimum since most people...

I feel mislead by "Savings $14.99 for 1", haha
Seems like a good unit.

Technically, USB-A is only supposed to put out:
USB 1 and 2: 500 mA @ 5V = 2.5 Watts (amps * volts = watts)
USB 3: 900 mA @ 5V = 4.5 W
That's why high-wattage devices like CD burners needed to...

Now up to $18, which is 10% off.
Worth noting that if you use all 3 USB ports at once, that the USB-C caps at 20W and the two USB-A ports caps at a *combined* 10W.

I currently have this. It's nice, quality Anker product. Only thing I would say is if you have something plugged in to both ports on the side and in the front usb, it takes up a lot of odd flat...

The benefit of this is you can pair it with another 45w or 65w (or 100w) charger depending on what you need for your laptop, but the 30W is enough for any phone or the Steam Deck. If you are on a...

Yes. This is what I do. My MacBooks are good for all day use and I simply charge them with 30 watt at night to full. Even power hungry ones because they are napping
Even when I am using the...

And for phones, in general, 30w is more than enough.

I think 30w would be plenty to charge most laptops when they’re not in use, shouldn’t take more than 3-4 hrs max. The challenge would be to keep a power hungry laptop fully charged while in use, so...

Only pushes 30W through USB-C. Not enough to charge most laptops. I was excited for a minute. Still could be useful for charging other devices in a hotel with not enough plugs or maybe on a cruise?

OP, might want to check the specs in the title. There is only 1 USB C port on this thing.
Edit: Thanks for updating the title!
