- How many devices can it power at once?
- Six AC plugs plus four USB devices, ten in total. The USB ports share one power budget, so charging slows when several are in use.
- Does the USB-C port fast-charge a phone?
- It charges newer phones and tablets without a separate adapter, but it is not a high-wattage USB-C PD port. Expect standard charging speeds, slower than a dedicated fast charger.
- Is the cord long enough for a dorm or office desk?
- At 3.94 ft it reaches a nearby wall outlet or the edge of a desk. For outlets across a room, pair it with an extension cord or choose a strip with a longer cord.
- Does it protect against power surges?
- It is a surge protector with a fireproof housing, but the joule rating is not published. For expensive electronics, a strip with a stated rating of 1,000 joules or more is a safer pick.
- Can it be mounted on a wall or under a desk?
- The flat plug and compact body make it easy to place against a wall or behind furniture. Check for keyhole slots on the back before relying on screw mounting.
