Tower Extension Lead 8‑Way with 6 USB, 13A 3250W 🔌

This vertical power tower brings multiple sockets and USB charging to a compact footprint, helping to keep desks and kitchen counters tidy while powering several devices at once. It combines an 8-way AC arrangement with six USB ports and a 1.8 m cable, so you can charge phones, tablets and cameras without sprawling cables across your workspace.

Key Points

The tower arranges eight AC outlets across four faces, which reduces plug overlap and makes it easier to connect bulky adapters. Each side has its own easy-to-reach rocker switch, allowing independent control of groups of sockets and helping to cut standby consumption. For USB charging there are three USB-C ports and three USB-A ports that the unit reports as automatically detecting device requirements to adjust current. ⚡

Safety features include a 13 amp fuse, overload protection and a safety shutter on the outlets, and the casing is made from fire-retardant material according to the manufacturer. Consider that the total USB output is listed as 5 V / 3.8 A overall, so charging speed will vary depending on how many ports are used simultaneously. 🔌

Advantages

The vertical design frees up desk space compared with a flat power strip and keeps cables directed downwards for a neater appearance. Independent switches make it simple to power down a set of devices when they are not needed, reducing energy use and giving more control without unplugging. The mixture of USB-A and USB-C ports covers older accessories and newer fast-charging phones alike. 🔋

Usage Recommendations

Place the tower where the outlets are easily accessible but away from areas prone to spills or direct heat, as electronic chargers perform best in ventilated spots. For charging multiple high-draw devices at the same time, distribute them between AC and USB ports to avoid approaching the maximum load. If you need rapid charging for a single laptop that requires higher wattage, check the laptop’s charger requirements since the tower’s USB output is better suited to phones, tablets and peripherals rather than high-power laptop charging.

Consider that when all USB ports are used simultaneously the available current per port will be lower, and charging times will increase according to the number of connected devices.
