Power Strip with USB Ports, 1-Foot Cord

Four USB ports—two USB-A and two USB-C—sit alongside three outlets, giving this compact power strip room for up to seven connected devices. Its 1-foot extension cord and slim, angled flat plug are designed to keep the strip close to the wall, which can be useful behind a desk or bedside table where a bulky plug would get in the way.

The USB output is rated up to 22.5W/4.5A total, not per port. If you prioritize several charging connections in a small footprint, this layout is practical, if you prefer built-in surge protection, this is the wrong format to choose.

Where it shines

The short cord helps place the outlets where you need them without adding a long run of cable across a room. Picture a hotel nightstand: plug the strip into a wall outlet, then connect a phone, earbuds, and a tablet without juggling adapters. At a dorm desk, the three AC outlets can serve devices that use standard plugs while the USB ports handle compatible charging cables.

The flat plug is intended to sit close to the wall, and the listing describes its 45-degree angle as a way to make that placement easier behind furniture. The compact design also makes it easier to pack for travel than a larger power strip. You’ll appreciate it if you want to bring one small charging hub for a mix of USB and plug-in devices.

Key points

There are three AC outlets, two USB-A ports, and two USB-C ports, with support for charging up to seven devices at once. The USB-A ports are rated at 5V/2.4A each and the USB-C ports at 5V/3A each, the combined USB output is listed as up to 22.5W/4.5A. The product says it detects connected devices’ power draw and adjusts charging output, but it does not give device-specific charging times or a per-port combined output breakdown. Treat the overall USB figure as the useful planning limit, without that measurement.

One important tradeoff is explicit: this strip has no surge protection. That may suit cruise travel where a non-surge-protected strip is required, but cruise-line rules can vary, so check the policy for your sailing before packing it. The listing also says the product is ETL- and FCC-certified and includes over-current, over-charge, short-circuit, and overheat protections, those features do not make it a surge protector. It may not suit you if protecting sensitive equipment from power surges is a priority.

Best use cases

This is most useful when outlet access is limited but you need a few charging connections close together: a dorm room, hotel stay, desk, or cruise trip where the applicable rules allow it. It’s a better fit than a basic extension cord when USB ports matter, while a longer strip or a model with surge protection makes more sense for a permanent setup that needs those features. The one-foot reach is also a real constraint: it won’t solve a wall outlet that’s far from the devices you need to connect.

Buying verdict

Choose this power strip for its short, flat-plug cord and mix of three outlets with four USB ports, especially when compact travel packing or a crowded desktop is the main concern. Skip it if you need surge protection, a longer extension, or a stated charging rate for each connected device. Before using it on a cruise, verify the ship’s specific power-strip policy, the product’s cruise-oriented description is not a substitute for that check.
