The Anker GaNPrime 65W Charging Station, also known as the 615 USB C Power Strip, is a versatile and efficient charging solution that offers multiple ports and advanced features. This comprehensive review combines the product description, personal experience, and additional insights to provide a detailed overview of its capabilities.The 615 USB C Power Strip from Anker is designed with convenience and functionality in mind. It features two fast-charging USB-C ports, two AC outlets, and a USB-A port, allowing you to connect and charge multiple devices simultaneously. This power strip is a great choice for individuals seeking to minimize clutter and simplify their charging setup.One of the standout features of this power strip is its high-speed charging capability. With a 65W USB-C output, it provides ample power to charge a wide range of devices such as phones, tablets, laptops, and more. Notably, it delivers fast charging speeds for devices such as Samsung smartphones, ensuring your Samsung devices are charged quickly and efficiently.The compact design of the power strip is another advantage. It takes up very little space on your desk and is travel-ready, making it an excellent companion for both home and on-the-go use. The cable length, although not particularly long, is well-suited for its intended purpose. It works perfectly in hotels by the bed, at a desk, or in the airport. Its portability and compact size make it convenient for use in various locations without the need for extensive cable length.Safety is a top priority with Anker’s ActiveShield 2.0 technology. This feature intelligently monitors the temperature to enhance protection, providing peace of mind while charging. Additionally, the integration of the latest GaN (Gallium Nitride) technology ensures that the power strip remains safe and powerful to use.During personal experiences, the power strip has proven to be reliable and compatible with different voltage standards, making it suitable for international travel. As per my personal experience, I have used the charger in countries with 240V power outlets, and it performed flawlessly. Although Anker’s manual may not explicitly state the dual voltage compatibility, contacting their support confirms that the power strip is indeed compatible with different voltage standards. This reassurance from Anker’s support team provides additional confidence in its usability during international travel.While the power strip itself excels in performance, it’s worth mentioning a potential heat issue when using specific chargers such as the Anker 511 USB C GaN Charger. Monitoring the temperature and ensuring the charger does not become excessively hot is important for the safe operation of your devices.In terms of additional benefits, purchasing the Anker 615 USB Power Strip includes a 3ft (0.9m) extension cord, a welcome guide, a 24-month warranty, and friendly customer service. Moreover, the connected equipment warranty provides coverage up to $200,000 for your connected devices, offering complete peace of mind.In summary, the Anker GaNPrime 65W Charging Station, 615 USB C Power Strip, offers a comprehensive charging solution with its multiple ports, high-speed charging capabilities, compact design, and safety features. It serves as a reliable and convenient power strip for charging multiple devices simultaneously. With its compatibility with different voltage standards, suitability for various locations, international travel-friendly features, and the confirmation of dual voltage compatibility from Anker’s support, including my personal experience with flawless operation in countries with 240V power outlets, the Anker 615 USB Power Strip proves to be a valuable asset for both home and travel use.

I got this to replace a regular surge protector that I would pack for working on the road. The old power strip has two USB A ports but they are low amp and can’t charge a MacBook, so I had to carry all the charge bricks with me. It also started to melt when I was photographing in Central America. I usually have a Macbook Pro, phone, camera battery charger and maybe a charger for AA batteries for a flash. This fits everything well. Usually it sits with the USB ports facing up and the camera battery charger on top, but when I need to charge AAs, I roll it on its side. I still carry a compact GaN USB charger in the computer bag, but this has significantly reduced bulk and cable management issues. The cord could be longer. I’m 6′ and it’s basically from belt to floor on me. If you need longer, this isn’t the right item for you, but I have long USB cables. This is small and elegant so it stays in my overnight bag and actually goes with me. I prefer the convenience.Putting the tester to it, I think it’s under-rated as a USB charger. Plugging in a meter, with a good cable, it’s peaking at 91.45 watts (~19.5 volts, ~4.7 amps, also note about 85 watts with a generic charge cable– cables matter). That’s to a 14″ MBP when charging a single device. In actual use, it’s performing about as well as the big, four-port 100-watt brick I keep at home under my desk. The meter doesn’t lie. I suspect the 67-watt rating may be based on sustained heat dissipation in a compact device over a longer session, but I’m liking these Anker GaN Prime products. The active temperature monitoring will hopefully prevent something like the melting incident from happening again.

If you are debating on whether you need it or you’ll use it, you will.Long cord, convenient, lightweight but thick and quality.Plenty of plugs, USB, USBC, Wall.It goes on every trip, and plugs into living room wall when we are home.

Anker is my go-to for charging and battery accessories because it’s high quality in terms of relatability and performance. This is perfect for my work area and I’m able to keep a MacBook Pro 14 and MacBook Retina charged using USB-C, still have a USB-A available for charging my iPhone or mouse, AND also have two regular outlets. I love that the cord wraps around the base and is neatly tucked under the silicone band. Will be great for travel.

65W is key to work in low wattage ports (like some 737s have), but still offering PD sufficient for a laptop.The cord is great for inconvenient hotel room plugs and finicky airplane outlets (and wraps up neatly for travel).120/240 input works everywhere.Simply the best travel charger I’ve found–this and country-specific adapters are all you need.
