70 W from the USB-C port, and a fit statement that says no
The one strip in this hub whose USB-C output is published high enough to run a laptop — 70 W using GaN — with 1500 joules of surge protection and an unusually blunt statement of which desks it will not fit.
Anker dual-zone desk clamp power strip with 70 W USB-C
Best for: A desk where the laptop charger should disappear and the strip has a straight edge to clamp to.
This hub’s buying tip is to check the USB-C wattage rather than the port, because a compact strip will happily carry a USB-C socket that trickles. Anker publishes 70 W, delivered through GaN, which is the one figure on this shelf that will run a laptop rather than top up a phone. The surge rating is published too, at 1500 joules, and is the highest here.
The layout is split rather than linear: ten ports in two zones, top and bottom, which keeps the AC side and the charging side from fighting over the same hand. The clamp is adjustable and stated to be stable enough to plug and unplug one-handed without the strip shifting — a small thing that matters on a mount you reach for under a desk.
The most unusual part of the listing is the fit note, and it deserves quoting because almost no listing writes one: “Fits desk edges 0.6 - 1.8 in thick (15 - 45 mm)… Not compatible with curved edges, edges sloped over 45°, or desks without an edge for clamping.” That rules out a bullnose desktop, a thick butcher-block over 45 mm (1.77 in), and anywhere without an edge. Set against the two strips alongside it — one stating a maximum and no minimum, one stating a clip that goes anywhere — it is the only page here that tells you in advance that the answer might be no.

Anker publishes up to 70 W from the USB-C port using GaN, which is enough for many thin laptops; check your laptop's own charger wattage against it. It is the figure this hub's buying tip asks for, and the only one on the shelf in that range — the TROND strip publishes 15 W and the VIPWELL strip publishes nothing.
Anker states it, which is rarer than it should be: "Fits desk edges 0.6 - 1.8 in thick (15 - 45 mm)... Not compatible with curved edges, edges sloped over 45°, or desks without an edge for clamping." A rounded or bullnose desktop is the common case that rules it out, and on this shelf it is the only listing that volunteers its own exclusions.
A set of two oversized cable and power-supply trays, each on a metal frame rated to 8 kg (17.6 lb), with padded no-drill clamps (or screws) and cable clips included.
Best for: A desk with several bulky power adapters and chargers, not just one or two thin cables.
A desk-clamp bracket that mounts an existing power strip (40 to 60 mm (1.57 to 2.36 in) wide) underneath the desk, with an integrated rear cable channel.
Best for: Mounting an existing power strip out of sight, without buying a full cable tray.
A clamp-mounted strip with its five outlets spread across three faces so bulky adapters do not crowd each other, rated at 1440 joules with a 15 W USB-C port.
Best for: A desk with several wall-wart adapters that will not sit side by side on a flat strip.
Two 7-gallon rectangular bins in co-polymer polypropylene, the largest capacity in this hub, with all three dimensions published and a recycling logo molded into the side.
Best for: An office that fills a bin, or two rooms to cover in one purchase.
An 18-liter painted metal mesh waste bin with a square, stable base, sized to reduce how often it needs emptying.
Best for: An office desk generating a genuine volume of paper waste, where a larger capacity means less frequent emptying.
A small desktop bin with a 360-degree gravity swing lid, a stainless steel base under a PP body, and a removable inner ring that holds the liner out of sight.
Best for: A desktop where the bin sits in the open and should not look like one.
