What do you call these?

Wow I’m the only one that called them “cubes” like “do you have a usb cube?” Or “do you have a usb-c cube?”
I think “cube” was an apple term for their chargers.

I don't know, but now I'm calling them wall warts because this community corrupts us, lol.
I'm gonna use this now as well. Thank you.

No seriously, I always get blank stares when I ask people, I've called them wall chargers or power bricks, my friend called them plug chargers, my fiancee calls them dongles. What do you call these around your house, like when you're asking someone if they've seen any (______)'s

Why the China video? You referenced China three times in three sentences. Grazing over the comments, I read
"... quality crap ... China ... China ... seizing ... China ... Even Vietnam!"
and so many mentions of China made me think of that China video.
How would you have expressed the same message? If English is your mother tongue, you can probably word things much better in English than I can.
I'm happy to edit the comment to make its English flow better!

I generally think of these as "transformers", but I call it a power supply. Mostly folks look at me like a Labrador trying to do calculus, and say "You mean a power brick?"

wrote last edited by [email protected]All of these work except "dongle". a dongle had a specific purpose in my day, some high end software wouldnt work without the dongle (a USB, serial or parallel device) plugged into the computer. Was an anti piracy device.
