2 Prong Power Strip 10-in-1 Surge Protector - Converts 2-Prong

In this review of the 2 Prong Power Strip by Wrxdmc the bottom line is straightforward: this accessory is for anyone living in an older home with ungrounded outlets who needs a compact, multi-device charging station. The product converts a polarized two prong outlet into a three prong outlet while adding six AC sockets and four smart USB ports, making it the single most convenient way to power phones, tablets and small appliances from a non-grounded wall receptacle.

Key Features

• 2 Prong to 3 Prong Conversion: Safely adapts a polarized two prong outlet to accept three prong plugs so more modern devices and power strips can be used in older homes.
• 10-in-1 Charging Station: Six AC outlets plus four USB ports let a user power multiple electronics from one wall location without adding extra adapters.
• Smart USB Charging: USB-A and USB-C ports auto-detect connected devices and deliver up to 2.4A per port for faster, optimized charging.
• 6 ft Braided Extension Cord: The long, durable braided cord and ultra-thin 0.27 in flat polarized plug make it easy to tuck the unit close to furniture and still reach distant devices.
• Surge Protection: Built-in surge suppression with a visible indicator and a lighted on/off switch protects connected equipment from spikes and shows when protection is active.
• Safety and Overload Protection: Integrated 13A circuit breaker and fire-resistant materials provide overload protection across all outlets.

Who It's For

This power strip is ideal for homeowners and renters with older two prong outlets who want to expand functionality without rewiring. It suits bedside tables, home offices and entertainment centers where multiple AC plugs and USB charging are needed but wall space is limited.

It is less suited for high-power appliances that approach the 1625 W limit or for users who require a true grounded connection for sensitive equipment; those users should install grounded outlets or choose a grounded surge protector where a ground is available.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Allows three prong devices to be used safely on polarized two prong outlets while adding multiple charging ports.
• Smart USB-A and USB-C ports deliver fast, device-aware charging with a 3.4A total USB output that handles phones and tablets well.
• Long 6 ft braided cord and ultra-thin flat plug make placement behind furniture easy and keep other outlets accessible.
• Visible surge protection light and a 13A integrated circuit breaker add practical safety features.

Cons

• Because it adapts a non-grounded outlet it cannot provide a true protective ground for devices that require one.
• The unit is limited to a 1625 W/13A total load, so high-draw appliances should be used with care to avoid tripping the breaker.

Our Verdict

The Wrxdmc 2 Prong Power Strip is a practical, value-minded solution for upgrading older two prong outlets into a versatile charging station. It intelligently combines multiple AC outlets, USB-A and USB-C charging, and surge protection into a tidy, wall-mountable package. Buy this if you need to power several devices from a non-grounded outlet; choose a grounded protector or outlet upgrade for gear that requires an earth ground.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can this unit provide a true ground to devices?
No. This adapter converts plug form and offers surge suppression but does not create a physical earth ground from a non-grounded outlet.

What is the maximum load the strip can handle?
The strip supports up to 1625 W, rated at 125 V and 13 A; exceed this and the integrated circuit breaker may trip.

Are the USB ports fast enough for tablets?
Yes. The USB-A and USB-C ports auto-detect devices and supply up to 2.4A per port, sufficient for most phones and many tablets.
