USB Power Strip Protection
The individual ports in the USB power strips used in PowerGistics Towers cycle on and off under thermal overload. This simply means that if the port becomes too hot, it will cycle off until cool enough to resume.
This is accompanied by a built-in surge protector that prevents devices from being damaged by voltage spikes.
A Note about Smart/Cycle/Intelligent Charging
Why pay extra for unneeded bells and whistles? Smart Power Management is really only needed while attempting to charge too many higher current devices that can overload your electrical circuit.
PowerGistics Towers charge all devices simultaneously from a standard outlet. No need to worry about this affecting the device battery. Modern devices already have built-in software that regulates charging to ensure devices are not overcharged. As PC Magazine explains, “The one thing all the experts agree upon is that smartphones are smart enough that they do not let an overload happen. Extra protection chips inside make sure that can’t happen in a tablet or smartphone, or even a laptop. Once the internal Lithium-ion battery hits 100 percent of its capacity, charging stops.”
Remember that “smart” doesn’t always mean superior.
