Who is the manufacturer?
To me, the signs and smell point to XTAR.
QC input, the analog dial display fetish, general control layout, spec label, and little things like the pouch, the look of the manual, even the naming.
Probably a cousin of the VC4S. Open it up, and it may even have red circuit boards like they do.
The charging current levels are a bit weird (500/800/1500mA?; and appear non-adjustable), but it looks like a solid, if not pretty nice option at the group buy price.

75mm max length so most protected 21700 should fit.

That makes sense. I was wondering why it looked like there was a second USB Type C input.
Also interested.
