Macbook Charger Power Surge

These have saved me a couple times with a recent power surge hitting my home. Protected my MacBook and my stereo rack. Will ALWAYS use these from APC!

Appalled that Fujifilm wants you to charge your battery in the camera rather than independently. Power surge or adapter issues can pose risk to the main board, so buying the charger is necessary. That said, this charger is very well made! I love that it has a screen to view the charge status, and the ability to charge 2 batteries simultaneously is a great feature.

The charger can charge my Macbook, phone, and power pack! It's easy to throw in a bag and plug in what I need!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] All of our devices have gradually transitioned to USB-C or have USB-C plugs, so I've just been collecting USB-C chargers to have around the house. This one went in our office/guest-room/music-room/exercise-room (hey, it's COVID) and has been great for my MacBook Pro. I have a 15" MacBook Pro that technically needs 95W to charge, but this 68W charger does well enough as long as the load isn't high -- I notice the computer does eventually charge to 100% even though it takes a bit longer. It's probably not ideal, but it works! For phones and other lower-power devices like iPads and the Nintendo Switch, this is absolutely a fast high-power charger with zero problems whatsoever. I love the sleek compact design and the included USB-C cable is heavy-duty and should handle the full power. Excellent.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally a charger that works with multiple devices. This thing has enough power that I can charge at least three power hungry devices at once, and it doesn't get hot. I can charge a MacBook Pro, a wireless speaker (it sucks a ton of power), and a wireless iPhone charger all at once. Even though other chargers claimed enough power to charge all this stuff at once, none did it. If I was charing my MacBook Pro at high rate, the brick would get super hot. Not this one - it stays cool. Love the look.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was incentivized by Influenster for this review – 4 Charging Ports: With some serious power output of 140W, this adapter lets you charge a laptop and 3 other devices all at once. –Travel-Friendly: This compact charger travels well thanks to its small footprint. It’s certainly a lot smaller than carrying a laptop, phone, watch, and iPad charger all at once. It also comes with interchangeable tips for US, UK, and EU plugs. – Super Fast Charging: You can expect fast charging times thanks to the 140W power delivery. Rely on this gadget to charge your MacBook Pro at full speed, or quickly charge an iPhone and iPad while powering another 2 devices. It also charged my MacBook Air from 20% to 100% in less than a half hour! – Easy Port Access: Accessing the ports on this GaN charger is super easy. They’re all on the front of the device, and we’ll spaced out no matter what kind of cable you have!

We had a major power surge during a storm and the Belkin F9H100-CW Surge-Cube saved us a lot of money... and a lot of heartache. Our refrigerator and stove were plugged into them. Both burned out, just the way they should, saving our costly appliances from damage. To put in into perspective, our hvac/heater panel was fried and had to be replaced. (Not cheap) We immediately re-ordered 3 more. I highly recommend these surge cubes for anything with a computer based operating system.

Use surge protection on these (power and ethernet) and they'll last forever.

Of course, I've only had this for several months, and there have been no power surge issues. Hopefully this will do as advertised :)

The APC P8VNTG Power Saving Surge Protector is a great product, potentially impacted by inferior quality. The product itself is attractive, well, as attractive as a power strip can really be. The black design melds into most home theater decors. I personally like the blue LED lighting, but they are VERY bright. So if you don't have the power strip hidden behind something, the light may be distracting.
