LIPWEL Plug Extension Socket 3‑way 13A Power Strip 🔌
Description:
This compact three-socket extension lead from LIPWEL helps power several devices at once while keeping a low profile on a desk or near a TV stand. It combines surge protection and a main switch so you can manage multiple electronics easily, whether for a home office or living room use.
Key Points
The unit includes three UK sockets with a rotating connector that adapts to tight spaces and reduces strain on cables, which can be useful behind furniture or in awkward plug positions. An illuminated main switch lets you cut power to all outlets at once, saving energy when devices are not in use. The housing is made from flame-retardant materials and the plug contains a 13A fuse for added safety, according to the manufacturer. 🔌
Compact and finished in white, the design is meant to be unobtrusive on a desk or shelf. Portability is straightforward thanks to the lightweight form factor, and the rotating plug makes it simpler to install where fixed-angle plugs might not fit. ⚪

Advantages
This extension lead offers a practical mix of power and protection. The built-in surge protection helps reduce the risk of damage to connected equipment from transient voltage spikes, which is particularly helpful for sensitive electronics such as routers or monitors. The rotating connector adds flexibility during setup and helps prevent cable bending that can shorten cord life. A visible LED on the switch makes it easy to check the power state at a glance. 🔋
Take into account that the 1000J rating gives a degree of surge suppression, however it may not be sufficient for repeated large surges or for whole-house lightning events. Also, the three-socket layout is convenient but might be limiting if you need to connect several large adapters simultaneously.
Usage Recommendations
Place the lead where the rotating plug can be positioned without forcing the socket, and keep ventilation around the body to avoid heat build-up during prolonged use. Use the main switch to cut standby power to chargers and peripherals overnight. For high-draw appliances check the combined load does not exceed the 13 amp rating stated by the manufacturer.
