Finally, Someone Made a Cheap Travel Charger That Doesn’t Suck

The power adapter features is more talented than you might think. It has two USB-C and two USB-A ports, plus a traditional US-style outlet (located at its front).
This means that provided you have another power adapter — which you’d still need to plug into the US-style outlet and use to power more demanding devices, like a laptop — you can theoretically charge five devices at once. However, if all four USB ports are in use, they will share a combined 15 watts and, therefore, charge your devices pretty slowly.
There is a catch, however. As pointed out by The Verge, the Anker Nano Travel Adapter lacks a voltage converter. While this isn’t an issue for most devices, including your smartphone or laptop, it means that the adapter won’t work with devices that draw a lot of power, such as a hair dryer or electric razor.
