This $13 gadget covers your wall outlet and turns it into 9 charging ports
The outlet closest to your desk probably doesn’t have all the slots you need for all of your gear, does it? But don’t go running for a clunky power strip just yet. You might be happier with this Addtam outlet extender with surge protection, which basically covers an entire two-outlet receptable and turns it into a whopping 9 ports. And it’s only $13 right now with Prime! (Snag a free Prime trial to score this deal price.)
So how does this thing work? Well, you just mount it over your regular double wall outlet, plugging it into the top one. You then use a mounting screw to ensure it stays in place. That’s it! Your outlet has now turned into five AC outlets plus four USB ports (three USB-A and one USB-C). Frankly, if you have a lot of devices to charge, then this is the perfect thing to use on the outlet nearest to your desk.
And that’s not all, because this inexpensive outlet extender serves another purpose: to protect your devices from power surges. It can absorb up to 1,050 Joules, so your devices should be safe for day-to-day use. There’s also a really cool-looking night light on this gadget’s edges, so you’ll find it easier to navigate your home in the dark.
If you dislike conventional power strips and hubs because of their unsightly cords, then this is the gadget for you. Mount it straight onto an outlet receptable and turn it into a full-blown charging station! It’s affordable at just $13 on Amazon with Prime, and if you don’t have Prime, you can still get it this cheap with a free 30-day Prime trial.
Turn your wall outlet into 9 charging ports for just $13
