3M Extension Lead 4.5A USB‑C + 3 USB‑A Power Strip 🔌

This power strip combines two AC outlets with four USB ports to charge phones, tablets and small appliances at a bedside or desk, while offering surge protection and a long braided cable for flexible placement. It is suitable for dorm rooms, home offices and travel where multiple device charging points are needed.

Key Points

The unit includes two standard AC sockets plus four USB charging ports, making it useful for mixed device setups and reducing the need for separate chargers. USB charging is managed by smart detection that adjusts output to connected devices, which helps with charging efficiency and protects battery health.

The USB C port delivers up to 3A and the USB A ports can provide up to 2.4A each, with a combined USB output of 4.5A total. Note that the USB C port does not support MacBook series or other laptops that require higher voltage charging, according to the manufacturer. The body is made from a fire-resistant PC material rated to withstand high temperatures and the strip features child-protective safety doors for added security. ⚡️

Practicality is enhanced by a braided 3-metre cable that resists deformation and is easier to route around furniture. The cable contains pure copper conductors and is rated for 13A current capacity, which improves durability and current carrying ability. 🧵

Usage Recommendations

Place the strip on a desk or bedside table where the braided cable can be routed without tight bends and away from heat sources. For faster charging of tablets or high-draw phones, use the Type-C port when compatible, and distribute high-draw devices across the AC outlets rather than relying solely on the USB outputs.

Consider the note about laptop charging when planning to power larger devices. The surge protection and safety doors improve everyday safety, however avoid overloading the sockets with appliances that together exceed the stated conductor rating or the expected load of a typical household circuit.
