Personally, I don't buy Anker products since the eufy scandal, but their chargers are still top notch so I am sure you won't have much to complain about.

I use Ugreen right now and am satisfied. I don't have the equipment to measure efficiency, so I can't comment on how good it is.

Edit: Spelling.

Any more info on this Eufy issue? A came across a camera system if theirs that's having issues. Might have to read up tomorrow.

They sold these cameras claiming it does not use any cloud service, but that was a lie. They produced unencrypted streams and lied about it. They lied so much that it proves they are not trustworthy as a company, and why I personally won't be buying any Anker products for a long time. They apologized and what I took from this is "we are sorry we got caught".

Their charging department is probably not the same ones, but still, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
