Orico, a company that creates charging solutions, has introduced a new power strip that combines 8 functions into one device with a 25 W GaN design for global consumers. This latest accessory is made to keep your work area neat and organized. It has a small and light design, similar to the recently released Anker USB Power Strip, which has 12 functions and 20 W of power. Additionally, the power strip has a flat plug that is just 0.43 inches thick and features a 45° right angle shape. According to Orico, this design is perfect for fitting into tight spaces behind furniture like beds, desks, TV stands, and couches.
Key Features and Dimensions
In terms of size, this power strip is 3.82 x 3.07 x 1.26 inches (97 x 77.9 x 32 mm) and weighs about 8.8 ounces (249 grams). The Orico Power Strip includes 8 output options: 4 AC outlets, 2 USB-C ports, and 2 USB-A ports. This means users have the ability to charge up to 8 devices at the same time. Concerning the output capabilities of the USB ports, the USB-C ports can deliver up to 25 W of power, while the USB-A ports are limited to 22.5 W.
Safety and Performance
Moreover, this power strip has received FCC certification and has been tested by UL, providing safety against issues like short circuits, overheating, over-voltage, and over-current situations. It also features a shell that is resistant to fire and includes a fixed extension cable that is 5 ft (60 inches) long. Orico claims that one of the 25 W USB-C ports can charge an iPhone 17 Pro from 0 to 60% in only 30 minutes. However, it does not come with a power switch, which is a feature present in Anker’s 12-in-1 tower power strip that currently retails for $23.99 on Amazon.
