Power Strip Surge Protector with 2 USB C and 3 USB - Compact Desktop

In this review of the Power Strip Surge Protector with 2 USB C and 3 USB, the bottom line is simple: it is a compact, travel-friendly charging station best for desktops, bedside tables, and dorm rooms where space is limited and multiple devices need powering. The main reason to buy is the combination of widely spaced AC outlets plus a total of five charging points (two USB C and three USB-A) in a slim housing with a 0.35 in flat plug and 5 ft cord, which makes it a convenient way to add portable power without a bulky brick taking up the strip.

Key Features

• Widely Spaced Outlets: Two AC outlets are set 2.95 in apart so larger adapters can be used without blocking the second socket.
• Five Charging Ports: The unit supplies two USB C ports and three USB-A ports so users can charge phones, tablets, and small electronics simultaneously.
• Flat Plug and 5 ft Cord: The 0.35 in ultra flat right-angle plug and 5 ft extension cord let the strip sit close to walls and reach distant outlets with minimal clutter.
• Fast USB C Charging: USB C ports can deliver up to 5V/3A and the combined USB output reaches 5V/3.1A for quicker charging of compatible devices.
• Surge Protection: Built-in 490 joules of surge protection and a surge-protected indicator provide basic defense against voltage spikes for connected equipment.
• Portable Design: The small desktop footprint and lightweight casing make it suitable for travel and temporary setups in guest rooms or dorms.

Who It's For

This strip is ideal for students, travelers, and anyone who needs a small, multiport charging station for a desk or bedside table. It works well when you want to plug in a laptop charger plus a phone and a tablet at the same time without adapters blocking each other because of the wider outlet spacing.

Those who require heavy-duty protection for large appliances, professional-grade surge suppression, or guaranteed long-term USB performance for many years should look elsewhere; some customers report mixed longevity for the USB ports, so it is best used for phones, tablets, and light electronics rather than critical, high-draw equipment.
