Surge Protector Power Strip 10 FT Cord Power Tower with USB C

Our review of this surge protector power strip finds it best suited for home offices, dorm rooms and conference tables where multiple devices need reliable charging and surge protection. The single biggest reason to buy is its combination of a compact vertical design and broad protection features, including an 1800 joule ceramic SPD and a built-in circuit breaker, which together protect connected gear and free up desk space. The 10 ft cord and four USB ports (including USB C) make it practical when outlets are distant.

Key Features

• 12 AC Outlets: The tower provides twelve outlets spaced to accept larger plugs without blocking adjacent sockets, so many devices can be used at once.
• 4 USB Ports (1 USB C): Built-in smart USB charging (5V/3.4A combined) lets phones, tablets and accessories charge without using AC outlets.
• 10 ft Cord: A long extension cord helps place the tower where it is needed instead of rearranging furniture to reach a wall socket.
• Advanced Surge Protection: Ceramic SPD with 1800 joule rating cuts power quickly during surges and lightning events to protect sensitive electronics.
• Overload Safety: A resettable circuit breaker and overload protection turn the unit off if draw exceeds rated capacity, protecting both the tower and connected devices.
• Space-Saving Design: The compact tower footprint and non-slip base reduce desk clutter while keeping many outlets within reach.

Who It's For

The tower is ideal for students, remote workers and small-team conference rooms that need a high outlet count in a small footprint and the convenience of USB charging. The 10 ft cord and wide voltage support (110V-250V) make it useful in varied room layouts and for travelers using it in compatible regions.

Those who need industrial power delivery, dedicated high-wattage appliance circuits or more than the stated rated power should look elsewhere; do not exceed the rated power limits (1250W at 125V or 2500W at 250V) and confirm your device requirements before connecting heavy loads.

Does it protect against lightning and power surges?
Yes, the tower uses a ceramic SPD with 1800 joule protection and will cut power during significant surges to protect connected devices.

What if the unit trips from overload?
There is a built-in reset/off switch and circuit breaker; press the reset to restore power after reducing the load and ensuring no faults.
