Anker 351 Power Strip with 2100J Surge Protector, 12 AC Outlets, 1 USB-C and 2 USB-A
Product Information, Not A Review
Quick Specs
What Stands Out
What To Check
A desk corner runs out of outlets long before it runs out of gear. This flat-plug strip is one of Amazon's top ten sellers in power strips, and the reason is plain enough: twelve outlets, three USB ports, and a plug that lets the furniture sit flat against the wall.
The everyday job is quiet. Monitors, a walking pad, a lamp and a phone all land in one place, and a storm rolling over North Texas hits 2,100 joules of surge protection before it hits any of it.
The Numbers That Matter
12 outlets. The spacing is the real spec. Wall warts get their own room instead of blocking a neighbor, which is how a 12-outlet strip stays a 12-outlet strip.
2,100 joules. That is the energy the strip is rated to absorb over its life. Two indicator lights on the housing, one for surge and one for ground, tell you the protection has not already been spent.
5 ft cord and a flat plug. The plug turns sideways so the back of a desk clears the wall. The cord length decides where the desk can go, so measure the run before ordering.
| Spec | What it decides |
|---|---|
| 12 AC outlets | How much of the desk corner runs off one strip |
| 2,100 joules | How much of a surge it absorbs before it stops protecting |
| 1 USB-C at 20W, 2 USB-A | Whether a phone charges without taking an outlet |
| 5 ft cord, flat plug | How close the desk sits to the wall |
| 1875W output | The total load the strip is rated to carry |
No subscription and no app. Anker lists a 30-day money-back guarantee, a hassle-free warranty and lifetime customer support. Registering for connected-equipment coverage means handing Anker your purchase details, so treat that part as optional. One thing to know: Anker says the USB-C port hits 20W only when the USB-A ports are empty, so a phone, a tablet and a pair of earbuds all on the USB row will each charge slower.
Who It Is For
The dad whose desk grew one device at a time until the wall gave out. It feeds the UPLIFT V3 4-Leg standing desk and the UPLIFT inclining walking pad off one wall outlet, powers a Quntis ScreenLinear monitor light bar, and tidies up with a run of VELCRO ONE-WRAP ties. For the bag instead of the wall, the Anker 735 Nano II 65W is the travel version of the same idea.

The Short Version
One strip runs the whole standing-desk corner: three monitors, the walking pad, a lamp, and a phone on the USB-C port, with 2,100 joules standing between all of it and a Texas thunderstorm. The flat plug is the detail that matters if the desk lives against a wall.
