Baseus Charging Station 100W, 7-Port GaN USB C Charger Power Strip Surge Protector 1200J with 5ft Extension Cord, Fast Charging Desktop Outlet Extender for Laptop, MacBook, iPhone, Travel, Work

This is a great charging station solution with a few things that needs to be addressed. It will charge your devices really fast and has enough plugs to charge 7 devices at once. However, when you have 1 device charging, it will recalibrate charging whenever you plug a new device into one of the usb-c or USB-a plugs. It will stop for a brief second and start charging the device again after that. I don't know if that's how they designed and programmed it to do for safety, but it's not a deal breaker to me.The main power plugs. IT CANNOT HANDLE AN UPRIGHT VACUUM. It shuts itself off as it cannot handle that load. I was using a shark navigator vacuum and it probably pulls too much current which triggers a safety protocol on the charging station. But, If you're just charging devices then thing works perfectly for that purpose.It is pretty well designed to fit smaller spaces with its slim rectangular shape. It was perfect for my computer desk. I would recommend this product solely for charging. I would not recommend it if you plan on using plugs for appliances, vacuums, etc. it cannot handle that.

This is a great unit which consolidates many power cords. Have tried many USB devices, and have experiences zero problems.My only concern is the touch-power button. It's not necessary, and is accidentally touched frequently upon repositioning the unit or peripherals. It's very responsive, and doesn't offer much tactile feedback (there's a relay click inside the unit), but you probably don't realize it's been touched until all of your accessories are now in the opposite power state of what you intended.Good value for the money.

Apple's 2023 Macbook Pro 14" supports quick-charging with a 96w or larger power adapter, but inexplicably only ships with a 65w unit. This 100w Baseus unit is a powerful, versatile, and relatively compact solution. Like most of these types of third-party multi-port power adapters, only one of the port delivers full 100W PD power to a laptop, and only if it is the only port in use. If any other device is plugged in, the high power USB-c port kicks back to 65w, which is plenty to charge the MBP, though more slowly. The other outlets have lower maximum power delivery. Although the Amazon listing has a handy chart with all the specific combinations of wattages possibe, there is a helpful label overlay that simply suggests what devices should be plugged into which ports.Pros:-great value for the money-three power outlets (two are grounded)-built-in surge protection-nice long power cable-a label overlay gives specific guidance what to plug in to which USB ports-Use of GaN means less bulk-solid build quality-lighted power buttonCons (why I reduced it by one star)-surge protector and three power outlets add bulk and weight.-No USB-c charge cable incuded...you have to find your own 100w-rated PD cable (not all support 100w)-AC power cord is stiff-the unit defaults to "off" everytime you plug it in, making it easy to accidentally not charge your devices.In summary:It's a great little unit but has a couple of quirks. Baseus makes two other 100w units (one without surge protection & only two AC outlets, and one with no AC outlets). Both are smaller and lighter. They also make 65w units that are fine for Macbook Pro and Air models, only sacrificing the quick-charge capability on the Macbook Pros. If size and wieght are a priority, look into the other models. If quick-charge for MBP and extra power-strip features are appealing, then this is a great choice.

Good

I think this device is great for when all your devices are close together. The plug cord is even at a 45 degree angle so it doesn’t interfere with other plugs at the receptacle. Have a ground plug for extra protection and all the outlets that are required to energize all types of device inputs. I really like that it has a on & off switch that shuts off the parasitic electrical current that the cube style doesn’t. It’s also less money than buying all the different outlets has a quality extension cord connected to a well designed grounded plug.

I own a Baseus 100w portable charger, and several charging cables so I confidently purchased this surge protector charger on prime day, summer of 2024- the safety features were a big target for me. I monitored it for 3 months, and was very pleased with it. It charged items quickly and was not overheating. One day while working in the yard late Sept, neighbors came screaming that the house was on fire. I ran inside and flames from the couch and the charger were climbing the wall. It was 2 seconds away from burning through the floor and the attic. Thankfully no pets or anyone was hurt. If it wasn't for helpful neighbors it would be a very different story.I was charging a low voltage American Made product at the time of the fire- no other items were charging, the charger had not been tampered with or used improperly.The Fire department determined the Baseus device was faulty and set the couch on fire, they have the item in their possession. Due to the dry extinguisher chemicals, water, and smoke that filled the entire house- an absurd amount of property damage occurred, which has caused a tremendous amount of loss, stress, money, and work.I warn you- this item listing states it is UL certified- but the packaging and manual do not state this anywhere. I hate writing bad reviews, but 4 months after still dealing with the damage, it's time.
