New 240W 8-in-1 Anker Prime charging station with app control
Unlike the head-up design of the model we featured yesterday, the new Anker Prime 240W 8-in-1 charging station is sleeker and more portable. Despite the more discreet form factor, this time we see a variety of USB-C/A charging ports, as well as a pair of pop-out AC outlets—four USB-C and two USB-A.
This ultra-compact charging station measures just 3.07 × 5.43 × 0.71 inches and features a flip-up power outlet for easy access.
The entire unit delivers up to 240W of power with intelligent distribution across the ports. The USB-C ports offer a maximum of 140W, which can charge a 16-inch MacBook Pro from 0 to 53% “in just 30 minutes.”
Power distribution is as follows (partly dependent on the number of ports used simultaneously):
Along with the included detachable 5-foot extension cord, the built-in display connects to the companion app to enable smartphone control and monitoring of all of the unit’s ports. This includes features like a shut-off timer for the AC ports and the ability to set schedules for output power (for example, you can have the AC plugs automatically shut off at night or only turn them on during off-peak hours).
The new 240W 8-in-1 Anker Prime charging station secretly landed on Amazon a few days ago for $169.99 and is now available at $164.99 ready to ship. However, you can knock 15% discount Your order when you add it to your cart along with the other Anker gear you see on this page.
