Overview
The Anker Charging Station (9-in-1, 100W) is a desktop power solution that combines a power tap with a high-speed USB charger. It features 3 AC outlets, 4 USB-C ports, and 2 USB-A ports, allowing up to 9 devices to charge simultaneously. The USB-C ports support up to 100W Power Delivery, making it suitable for charging laptops, tablets, and smartphones quickly. A 1.5m extension cord provides flexible placement options.
Connectivity & Compatibility
The front panel houses all USB ports, while AC outlets are located on the back and side for cleaner cable management. USB-C ports support PD 3.0 and are compatible with a wide range of devices including iPhones, Android phones, tablets, and laptops. Note that 100W output is only available when using a single USB-C port (C1 or C2); simultaneous use will distribute power among connected devices.
Product Info
Released in 2024, this model sits in the mid-high tier of Anker's charging station lineup. It is priced around ¥5,190 on Japan, offering good value for a 9-in-1 multi-port solution. Multiple safeguards (overvoltage, short-circuit protection) are built in for long-term safety. The package includes the station and a manual; warranty is 18 months from Anker.
Best Use Cases
Ideal for desk warriors who want to reduce cable clutter—gamers and remote workers with multiple peripherals will appreciate combining a power strip and USB hub into one device. Also great for households with multiple smartphones, tablets, and laptops that need daily charging. The 100W output can fast-charge large laptops like MacBook Pro. One caveat: with only three AC outlets, users needing many wall-wart plugs may need an additional power strip.
