Gray Extension Lead 6-Way with 5 USB (3250W) 🔌
Description:
This 6-way extension lead combines multiple AC outlets with USB charging to keep a home or office desk organised and powered. It includes five USB ports and a USB-C port for faster device charging, while a braided 1.6 m cable and built-in protection aim to make everyday use safer and tidier.
Key Points
The unit offers six AC sockets arranged on three sides to provide more usable space on the desktop and reduce plug overcrowding. USB charging includes four USB-A ports with up to 2.4 A per port and one USB-C port rated at 3 A for quicker charging of compatible phones and tablets. ⚡️ The extension lead is fitted with overload and surge protection and a child-safety shutter over the sockets to lower the risk of accidental contact.
Cable quality is a focus, with a 1.6 m braided cord designed to resist kinking and improve durability. The strip also has two non-slip rubber pads on the base to help it remain stable on worktops and conference tables. Note that the USB-C port does not support MacBook models or other devices requiring 14–22 V charging according to the manufacturer, so high-voltage laptops will need their original chargers.

Positive Aspects
The three-side layout helps distribute plugs so adapters and bulkier chargers fit without blocking adjacent sockets, which improves usability in compact spaces. The braided cord adds tactile resistance to wear and makes cable routing neater. 🔌 The surge and overload protection, together with fire-resistant materials, contribute to a safer setup for multiple devices running simultaneously.
Usage Recommendations
Place the extension lead on a stable surface and allow the non-slip pads to grip the desk to avoid accidental movement. For charging tablets and smartphones use the USB-C port when higher current is needed, but consider the manufacturer note about laptop compatibility when attempting to power notebooks. For long-term safety, avoid overloading the total 3250 W capacity by adding up appliance ratings before connecting multiple high-draw devices, and keep the strip clear of heat sources for best performance.
