For three devices, it supports configurations of 100W/30W/30W or 70W/70W/20W, allowing a laptop or two to be charged alongside another gadget.
Smart Features
Additionally, with its dynamic power distribution, Anker claims the charger can automatically identify and modify power every 2 minutes, ensuring that each device charges at its ideal speed. It also comes with built-in safeguards to avoid overcharging and excessive heat.
The adapter measures 2.56 x 2.05 x 1.38 inches (65 x 52 x 35 mm) and features a smart display that provides real-time charging information and temperature data. You can also utilize the accompanying app for deeper insights, change charging modes, and even rotate the display. Weighing in at 7.76 oz (220 g), it’s easy to transport without any trouble.
