TROND Prime II Power Bar Surge Protector, 4 Outlets, 2 USB-C, 15 ft

With a 15 ft cord, the TROND Prime II power bar can bring power to a desk, bedside table or entertainment area set away from the wall outlet. Its four AC outlets and four USB ports combine everyday device charging in one indoor power bar, while surge protection adds another practical feature for a home office or shared living space.

The slim, low-profile plug is designed for tight spots behind furniture, and the bar can also be mounted using its visible mounting ears and included screws. Choose an integrated power bar when you want AC outlets and USB charging together, a basic extension cord may suit a setup that only needs to bring power farther across a room.

Quick overview

The Prime II has four AC outlets, two USB-C ports and two USB-A ports. Its 15 ft extension cord gives you more flexibility when positioning the bar, whether the nearest wall outlet is behind a desk or across the room from a nightstand. The widely spaced outlet layout is intended to accommodate larger adapters, helping make the AC outlets more useful for mixed-size plugs.

Surge protection is rated at 1,440 joules, and the product is ETL listed. The power rating is 1,625 W maximum at 125 V and 13 A. For a tidy work area, the flat, right-angle plug sits close to the wall, for a more fixed arrangement, use the mounting ears to attach the bar under a counter or behind an entertainment centre.

Buyer feedback often appreciates the low-profile plug and the ability to position the bar behind furniture. Opinions are more mixed on the USB ports and outlet spacing, so the clearest reason to choose this design is its combination of cord reach, AC outlets and built-in USB charging.

Usage tips

Position the bar where the cord can reach without being stretched, then arrange the devices you plan to power across the AC outlets and USB ports. The flat plug is useful when a sofa, cabinet or desk sits close to the wall. If you want the bar to stay in one place, its mounting ears and included screws provide a way to secure it to a suitable surface.

For a compact charging setup, connect USB-powered devices directly to the built-in ports rather than using a separate wall charger for each one. The USB-C output is rated at 5 V and up to 3.0 A, the USB-A output is rated at 5 V and up to 2.4 A, with a combined USB output of 17 W maximum.

Tips for day-to-day use

This power bar works well for a home office where a computer setup shares space with USB-powered accessories, or beside a bed where the cord needs to reach past furniture. It can also help keep a TV area organized: place the bar behind the cabinet and use its outlets for devices with AC plugs, while USB-powered items can connect at the same station. Indoor use is recommended for settings such as an apartment, office, college dorm room or hotel.

Before connecting devices, check their power requirements against the bar’s 1,625 W maximum rating. The Type B, three-prong plug is the specified power plug type. Keep the bar accessible if you plan to use its outlets regularly, or mount it in a convenient position to reduce clutter around the floor and desk.
