Baseus, a Chinese electronics manufacturer, has released a new power strip that combines GaN technology with traditional AC outlets. This seven-in-one device, currently available on JD.com for 179 yuan (approximately $25 USD), could streamline your charging needs.

Baseus 7-in-1 65W GaN power strip specifications

The key feature of the Baseus power strip is its integration of three AC outlets alongside two USB-C and two USB-A ports. This hybrid design allows users to charge laptops, printers, and other AC-powered devices alongside smartphones, tablets, and other USB-powered gadgets. 

This departure from the typical USB-only GaN chargers could appeal to users seeking a more versatile charging solution.

With a 65W capacity, the power strip boasts fast-charging capabilities for multiple devices simultaneously. However, it adapts its charging speed based on how many ports you’re using:

  • Single-port usage: When only one device is plugged into any of the Type-C1 ports, it gets the full 65W of power.
  • Double-port usage: When two ports are being used, the power is divided between them. The amount of power that each port receives depends on which ports are being used.

    For example, when two devices are plugged in, the power is divided between them. If one device is plugged into a Type-C1 port and the other into the Type-C2 port, the Type-C1 port gets 45W and the Type-C2 port gets 20W. However, if Type-C1 and USB are being used, Type-C1 will receive 60W and USB will receive 5W.
  • Triple-port usage: When three ports are being used, the power is divided among them in a similar way to double-port usage. For example, if Type-C1, Type-C2, and USB 1 are being used, Type-C1 will receive 45W, Type-C2 will receive 15W, and USB 1 will receive 5W.

Besides this, the charging strip also features built-in safeguards like lightning protection, surge protection, and short-circuit prevention, offering peace of mind for users.

There’s also a touch-sensitive “breathing light switch” that adds a visual element and displays the power status. The power strip also supports up to 2500W of common household equipment, making it a versatile option for various use cases.
