The Anker Nano Power Strip is a clamp-mounted desk power strip with 1500J surge protection, 70W maximum output, and two USB-C ports alongside AC outlets. The clamp is the entire point of the design: it fixes to the desk edge so outlets sit at hand height rather than under the desk, which is where the actual friction of a home office lives. Plugging in a laptop or phone stops being a reach under furniture. 70W is enough to fast-charge a phone and most thin laptops, and 1500J surge protection is a real rating rather than a marketing number. It fits standard desk edge thicknesses, so check your desktop before ordering. Best fit: home offices, standing desks, dorm rooms, and any setup where the outlets are currently behind or under the desk.
Pros

- 1500J surge protection is a genuine rating rather than an unspecified claim
- Two USB-C ports plus AC, so most devices skip the wall wart entirely
Cons
- The clamp fits a specific range of desktop thicknesses, so an unusually thick or thin desk edge may not work
Frequently asked questions
What desk thickness does the clamp fit?
Clamp power strips of this design fit a specified range of desktop edge thicknesses. Measure your desk edge and check the listing spec before ordering.
Is 70W enough to charge a laptop?
70W will fast-charge phones, tablets, and most thin-and-light laptops. Higher-draw workstation laptops may charge slowly or maintain rather than gain charge under load.
Does it need to be screwed into the desk?
No. It clamps to the desk edge, so there is no drilling and it moves with you if you change desks.
What does 1500J surge protection actually cover?
Joule rating describes how much energy the protector can absorb over its life. 1500J is solid for a desk-level device protecting laptops, phones, and monitors.
