Anker Power Strip Surge Protector (6 Outlets, USB-C/A): Full Rundown (2026)

This is an affiliate link — we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.

This Anker USB Power Strip (10-in-1, 20W) — model A91F2 — combines six AC outlets with two USB-C and two USB-A ports in a slim strip with 300J surge protection, a 5-foot flat cord, and a flat plug that sits close to the wall [1][2]. It's built for tidying a desk: monitor, lamp, and laptop charger on the AC outlets, phones and earbuds on the USB ports. This page is based on Anker's published specifications; we don't test power strips in-house.

Quick verdict

As a desk power strip, it's a sensible, compact pick: six outlets, built-in USB charging, surge protection, and a flat plug that fits behind furniture [1][2]. The one thing to understand before buying: the USB ports are for phones and accessories, not laptops. The strongest USB-C port tops out at 20W, and when several USB ports are in use they share as little as 15W [1]. Plug your laptop's own charger into an AC outlet instead.

Full specs

What stands out

• Ten outlets in a small footprint. Six AC plus four USB in a strip about 6.3 × 3.1 inches [1][2].
• Flat plug and flat cord. The plug sits close to the wall so a desk or bookcase can go right up against it, and the flat cord is easier to route and store [2].
• USB-C for modern phones. The main USB-C port supports up to 20W [1] — fast charging for most phones.
• Equipment guarantee. Anker backs it with an 18-month warranty and a $200,000 connected-equipment guarantee [2].

What to know before buying

• USB ports won't charge a laptop properly. USB-C1 maxes out at 20W, USB-C2 at 15W, and any combination of ports shares 15W total [1]. Most laptops need 45–100W. Use your laptop's own charger in an AC outlet, or a dedicated GaN charger such as the UGREEN Nexode Pro 100W.
• USB speed drops when ports are shared. Charging two phones at once means both charge slower [1].
• 300J is modest surge protection. It covers everyday desk electronics; for expensive equipment, or protection from outages, consider a UPS like the APC Back-UPS Pro BX1500M.
• Check your region. Anker's US guide rates it at 125V / 15A / 1875W [1]; other regions' versions differ.

Who it's for

• Good fit: home-office desks that need more outlets plus phone and accessory charging in one tidy strip; furniture that sits close to the wall.
• Maybe: dorms and shared spaces where a compact strip with USB beats separate chargers.
• Skip it: if you hoped to charge a laptop from the USB-C port — you'll want a 65W+ charger for that.

FAQ

Can the Anker power strip charge a laptop over USB-C? Not at useful speeds — its strongest USB-C port gives up to 20W, and ports share 15W when used together [1]. Plug your laptop charger into an AC outlet.

How much surge protection does it have? 300J [1].

How long is the cord? 5 feet, with a flat plug [2].

How many outlets does it have? Six AC outlets plus two USB-C and two USB-A ports [1][2].

Bottom line

Anker's 10-in-1 strip is a tidy, inexpensive way to power a desk: six outlets, phone-speed USB charging, 300J surge protection, and a flat plug that fits behind furniture. Just treat its USB ports as phone chargers — your laptop still needs its own charger.
