- Can it charge a laptop?
- Only through the AC outlets, not the USB ports. The USB-C ports max out at 15W, well below what most laptops need, so use the laptop's own charger in one of the 12 outlets.
- How many devices can it power at once?
- Up to 17: 12 AC outlets plus 3 USB-A and 2 USB-C ports. Total output is capped at 1250W, so add up the wattage of anything high-draw.
- What does the flat plug do?
- The 0.31 in flat head sits flush against the wall and the 45-degree angle keeps the outlet below clear, so it fits behind sofas and beds.
- Do the switches control the USB ports too?
- The individual switches are on the AC outlet sides. The USB ports share the strip's power, so check the switch layout before assuming a port stays on.
- Is it good for a dorm room?
- Yes, if you have many small devices. The tower saves space and the switches help manage them, but keep high-wattage appliances like space heaters off it.
- Does it protect against surges?
- Yes, it is a surge protector. It guards connected electronics from voltage spikes, though it is not a UPS and will not keep devices running in a blackout.
