I don't understand why companies love to put USB ports in power strips, but they can only do 2.4A. What are you plugging into a power strip that you don't want to fast charge? I would rather have another outlet on the power strip and use a charging adapter that can fast charge multiple devices.

i mean if you are plugging into outlet to charge over night a slower charger would maintain your battery health longer then fast charging everynight.

What you gonna get from trying to min max battery life? A few more months? Is that worth your time worrying? To each their own I guess

i mean example i use to have another phone and everybody that used the stock fast charger it came with all said they had to replace the battery by year 2-3 because it didnt last very long anymore.
i had the same phone but used a slower wireless charger and by year 3 my battery life was fine and i even sold it for 200-300$ which is a nice plus to recoup new phone cost, but then i know not everybody takes good care of their electronics, i tend to baby mine so they are often in very nice condition compared to regular people i guess.

Remember USB ports aren’t just used for phone or tablets. There are usb lights, desk fans, charging station for mouse, headphones, wireless controllers, etc.

I noticed this too. I bought a pretty beefy 12 outlet one with surge protection yada yada for my computer in 2016 for $25. It's $49.99 now or 39.99 on sale

Reminds me of Belkin power bars (these ones)

I found some of my old emails from 11-12 yrs ago where I bought 4-5 of these exact ones for $9.99 each. Now they are $40+
