Hotimy Tower Extension Lead 4M with 8 Outlets and 6 USB ⚡
Product description
This tower extension lead brings multiple charging options to busy desks and communal spaces, combining a vertical design with a long 4-metre cable to reach distant sockets and reduce clutter. It is aimed at powering laptops, chargers and USB devices simultaneously while keeping connections organised and accessible.
Key Points
The unit offers 8 widely spaced AC sockets arranged in two directions, plus 6 USB ports made up of 2 Type-C ports and 4 USB-A ports. According to the manufacturer the maximum rated power is 3250W at 13A, which allows many devices to run at once without overloading a typical household circuit. The tower includes two independent on/off switches on opposite sides so you can isolate groups of outlets without unplugging devices. There is a built-in digital display showing voltage and current so you can monitor charging activity at a glance. 😊

Advantages
The vertical sail-shape and enlarged base work together to keep the tower stable even when using several bulky UK plug adaptors. Spaced outlets reduce interference between large plugs and help maintain a neater desk surface. The Smart IC charging adjusts output to match connected devices, which can speed up charging for compatible phones and tablets and avoids supplying excessive current. There is also overload protection with an integrated circuit breaker and reset/off switch for safety. ⚡
Usage Recommendations
Place the tower on a flat surface where the 4-metre lead can be routed safely away from walkways. Use the dual switches to power down peripherals at the end of the day without disconnecting cables. For high-draw appliances verify combined consumption does not exceed the 3250W/13A limit, as surpassing that rating will trigger the overload cut-off according to the manufacturer. The digital display helps identify unusually high current draw so you can isolate the source quickly. 🔌
Consider that while the USB outputs provide rapid top-up charging for many devices, very power-hungry chargers for some laptops may still require their dedicated mains adaptor. The product includes a child safety door and uses materials with higher temperature resistance to help reduce risk during prolonged use.
