Struggling to squeeze more adapters onto a power strip? Anker's upcoming 65W charger could be the solution. | Image: Anker Japan Anker has come up with a clever design for a new 65W charger that's thin enough to squeeze between larger power adapters on a power strip, potentially making an over-crowded outlet useable again.
Thin chargers aren't a new idea, but they typically feature a set of folding prongs on the flat side of the adapter, allowing them to plug into outlets behind furniture and sit flush against the wall. Anker's approach is to instead position a pair of folding prongs on the end of its new charger, taking advantage of the thin design in a different way.
