    Not a bad deal but please note that 'surge protection of 175J' is effectively nothing.

      What figure/s would make it worthwhile on other similar products?

      • King Tightarse on 13/12/2023 - 10:36

        There are three relevant factors: overall surge absorption, clamping (reacting) speed and clamping voltage.
        Ideally, with joule rating, you would want about 10x that amount so 1500-200 joules. Anything over 1000 is OK.
        People feel their equipment is protected when they see 'surge protected' but often it is little more than a marketing gimmick and they are not really protected at all

          You'd think this komd of marketing would be illegal.

    This is a 4 port outlet.

    Do they do a Jackson 5?

    • ambert on 13/12/2023 - 09:56

      I only saw the 4 port one on sale at Woolies this morning, there are another 4 port with without USB going for 11 bucks.

      Do they do a Jackson 5?

      No. I blame it on the boogie…

        And here I was thinking it was the fault of the Sunshine and/or Moonlight.

        • King Tightarse on 13/12/2023 - 10:41

          How is foot and/or feet control going?

    • CauseNEffect on 15/12/2023 - 13:56

      4 is the molestation free, version.

    The Jackson 4-port power board is also half price.

  • rjams23 on 13/12/2023 - 10:23

    looks like they extend the promo from last week … went one woolies and they ran out, and only this is available

    Nice timing. Grabbed a couple. 2 for 1 is always good

    USB A "Fast Charging" ports specs:
    5V DC 2.4A MAX.

    That's deliberate misuse of the term fast charging.

    • ESEMCE on 13/12/2023 - 15:16

      Officially 2.4A is Fast Charging, it was the fastest an iPhone could charge for many many years because the USB-IF called for only 0.5-2.5A on the USB2 specification.

      So factually the statement is correct.

      The Proprietary Android Fast Charge protocols break from official USB specification.

          If there's one skill everyone needs in life, it's to learn to be OK with being wrong.
          I'm frequently wrong and it sucks, but it's also fine.
          Live and Learn, most of the Learn comes from being wrong and being corrected either by Life itself, or a passer-by.

          Happy to have helped you on your learning journey.. Hopefully you get to return the favour soon.

    @seanbaussie, Thanks for pointing it out and I have removed the word "fast charging" on the title to ensure no one get confused.
