- Anker is launching a 65W charger with a slim design that fits between larger adapters on a power strip.
- Unlike most slim chargers with prongs on the broad side, Anker’s new charger positions the prongs on the narrow side, optimizing it for tight spaces on power strips.
- The charger is listed on Anker Japan’s website with a winter 2024 launch date and a price of ¥6,990 (around $47 USD). Its U.S. release is still uncertain.
If you’re like most people, you have at least a few power strips that have become overcrowded with bulky chargers. Such overcrowding can make it hard for you to access and use all the available outlets. This would be especially frustrating if you need more outlets to plug in other devices. Well, the good news is that Anker has come up with a pretty smart solution to this problem.
The company is launching a new 65W charger that has a slim enough frame to fit between larger adapters on a power strip (via The Verge). As the outlet reports, this sort of charger isn’t exactly novel in its design. However, most slim chargers we’ve seen so far have prongs on the broad side of the charger, which enables you to plug them into outlets behind furniture or other tight spaces. Anker, on the other hand, has taken a different approach by positioning the prongs toward the end of the narrow side.
