TROND Power Bar with 5 AC Outlets

A crowded desk can leave you choosing between plugging in a laptop, a lamp and your USB devices. This TROND power bar turns one wall socket into a compact charging point, with five AC outlets and four USB ports in a slim, wall-friendly design.

Its 6 ft extension cord and angled flat plug are useful when the outlet sits behind furniture or close to a desk. Keep in mind that the listed maximum load is 1250W, so this is for everyday electronics rather than a reason to plug in high-demand appliances.

Key points

The outlet layout combines five AC sockets with two USB-C and two USB-A ports. One AC socket is spaced farther apart to make room for a larger adapter, which can help avoid losing a neighbouring outlet. The USB-C ports are rated at 5V/3A, while the USB-A ports are rated at 5V/2.4A, the stated maximum USB output is 15W. That makes the bar handy for keeping a phone and other USB devices close at hand, but it is not described as a high-wattage USB-C laptop charger.

The product listing specifies 1440J surge protection and a built-in circuit breaker that shuts off in an overload. Small indicator lights show power and surge-protection status. These are useful safeguards for a shared desk setup, though surge protection is not a guarantee against every electrical event.

How to use it

Place it on a desk or nightstand for a mix of plug-in devices and USB charging. The low-profile plug sits at a 45-degree angle, which is intended to leave the lower wall outlet unobstructed. With the cord extended, the bar can also sit behind a TV cabinet or under a counter instead of hanging directly from the wall socket.

Two screw-fixation points allow wall or furniture mounting. If you plan to mount it, choose a position that leaves the switch and indicator lights visible and keeps the connected cords accessible. The listing describes compatibility with 100V–250V, check that the electrical requirements of your devices and setup are suitable before use.

Practical tips

For a tidy work area, group the devices you use throughout the day on the bar and reserve the USB ports for compatible smaller electronics. The widely spaced AC socket is the natural place for a bulky adapter, use the remaining sockets for standard plugs. Behind a sofa or cabinet, the flat plug can reduce the awkward gap that a straight plug may create, while the 6 ft cord gives some flexibility in positioning.

It may suit you if you want one desktop power strip for a mix of AC and USB connections, especially where space behind furniture is tight. It may not be a fit if your setup needs more than five AC outlets, a higher USB charging output, or a stated load above 1250W. For a simpler setup with only one or two devices, a basic extension cord may be less than you need, this model makes more sense when the extra ports and surge protection have a clear job.

Buying questions

How many devices can connect at once? The bar has five AC outlets and four USB ports. The listing does not specify a combined limit for every possible mix, so stay within the stated 1250W maximum load.

Can it sit behind furniture? Its 45-degree flat plug and 6 ft cord are designed for tight spaces such as behind sofas or cabinets. The cord length may still limit where you can place it relative to the wall outlet.

Can it be mounted instead of used on a desk? Yes. The described screw-fixation points support mounting, and it can also be used as a desktop or nightstand charging station.

For your situation

Choose it when one outlet needs to serve several everyday electronics and the low-profile plug, cord reach or mounting option solves a real placement problem. Based on the listed details, its main appeal is combining AC sockets, USB charging and surge protection in one bar. If you mainly need fast USB-C charging or have equipment whose load exceeds the stated maximum, a power solution specified for those requirements is the better direction.
