This can be a little confusing by the way they advertise it, but here's what's going on: The unit CAN be plugged into any source from 120-240VAC. The USB ports will then convert that to a usable 5VDC for your normal USB-powered devices. Great!

This can be a little confusing by the way they advertise it, but here's what's going on: The unit CAN be plugged into any source from 120-240VAC. The USB ports will then convert that to a usable 5VDC for your normal USB-powered devices. Great!
The power sockets, however, will port that AC voltage as-is WITHOUT stepping it down to 120VAC.
Is that a problem? No... Not really. You're going to be plugging things into this that have internal voltage converters like laptops, chargers, or other wall warts that support 120-240VAC. The conversion doesn't need to happen inside this unit since it will be happening inside the power supply for your electronic device.
That said, if you're outside the US, don't be plugging anything into this that doesn't support 120-240VAC. Check the back of each power supply you connect and make sure it's compatible.

Mine does the exact same thing. The USB-C outlet works 100% of the time. But after about 3 plug ins, the USB-A ports quit charging, and in order to make them work again, you have to unplug the USB-A port, and plug it back in. This defeats the whole purpose of buying this device. I am going to return it.
Yes the USB-C port will allow a user with an iPhone 14 to charge the phone. The user can also plug the AC adapter into any of the 3 ports to then connect the USB-C to lightning cable.
I've used it in Europe, which is on 220Volts so I think it will work in India. You'll have to get the Inidan plug adapter and what ever you plug in should be dual voltage compatible. In europe, we plugged in phones, hair straigtners and such with no problems and no voltage adapter.
Yes. As long as the plug you are using doesn't have a grounding lug. The extender partially covers up the ground lug hole on the outlet. Using the extenders outlets should make this a non issue though. If the extender is used in a bathroom, plugs from the likes of shavers, battery chargers, etc. won't have a ground lug…
