In this review of the 2 Prong Power Strip from Wrxdmc, the bottom line is simple: it is a practical, space-saving upgrade for homes with ungrounded outlets that need a modern charging hub. The unit converts a polarized two prong outlet to a three prong outlet while adding eight AC receptacles and four USB ports, making it ideal for older houses where outlets are limited. Reviewers will find its slim flat plug and 5 ft cord especially useful behind furniture, and the built-in 1400J surge protection is the single biggest reason to consider it for sensitive electronics.
Key Features
- 2 prong to 3 prong adapter: Converts a polarized two prong outlet into a grounded three prong outlet so users can safely plug in modern equipment in older homes.
- Flat 45 angle plug: The 0.27 in ultra thin flat plug sits close to the wall and allows the strip to fit behind beds, headboards, or appliances without blocking the second outlet.
- 12-in-1 charging station: Eight AC outlets plus two USB-A and two USB-C ports let up to 12 devices charge from one wall outlet, reducing clutter around desks and bedside tables.
- 1400 joule surge protection: Built-in surge suppression guards electronics from spikes and displays a lighted indicator to confirm protection is active.
- Smart USB charging: USB ports auto-detect connected devices and deliver optimal current, with USB-A up to 2.4A and USB-C up to 3.0A per port for faster charging.
- Safety and durability: On/off switch with integrated 13A circuit breaker and fire-resistant PC shell help protect against overloads and heat.
Who It's For
This product is aimed at homeowners living in older properties with two prong outlets who want a compact, modern charging station that preserves wall space. It's also a good fit for renters and anyone who needs a low-profile power strip to tuck behind furniture or appliances while adding USB-C charging for newer devices.
It is not for users who require heavy duty industrial power delivery beyond 1625 watts or dedicated ground-fault protection for specialized equipment. Customers who need a permanently grounded hardwired solution should consult an electrician instead of relying solely on an adapter-style power strip.
Pros & Cons
Pros
- Converts two prong outlets to three prong and expands usable outlets for modern devices.
- Slim, 45 degree flat plug design keeps the outlet accessible and fits in tight spaces behind furniture.
- Combination of AC outlets and multiple USB-A and USB-C ports reduces the need for multiple chargers.
- Built-in 1400J surge protection and on/off switch with circuit breaker adds a layer of safety.
Cons
- As an adapter-style surge protector it does not replace a properly grounded outlet or electrician-installed grounding for equipment that needs a dedicated earth connection.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can this convert an ungrounded outlet to a grounded outlet?
This adapter provides a three prong receptacle form factor but does not replace a true grounded circuit; it is intended for convenience and surge protection, not to substitute for rewiring.
Will the USB-C port fast charge laptops?
The USB-C port supports up to 3.0A for faster charging of phones and tablets; full laptop power delivery depends on the device requirements and may be limited by the port's maximum output.
How does the surge protection indicator work?
A lighted indicator shows when surge protection is active; if the indicator is off after power is applied, the surge suppression may no longer be functional and the unit should be replaced.
