YISHU 6Ft Surge Protector Power Strip with 8 Widely Outlets & 4 USB Ports

Overview

This YISHU power strip puts 8 AC outlets and 4 USB ports, including one USB-C, on a 6 foot cord with a 3 sided outlet layout. It suits a dorm room, home office or desk that needs to power several devices and charge phones or tablets from the same strip.

The 3 sided outlet arrangement is the point of difference from a standard in line power strip: spacing outlets on three faces rather than one row means a bulky adapter plugged into one outlet is less likely to block its neighbors. Combined USB-A and USB-C charging ports mean phones, tablets and some smaller USB-C devices can charge alongside whatever is plugged into the AC side, without a separate charger block. At 900 joules the surge rating is on the lower end for a strip this size, appropriate for routine electronics rather than sensitive or expensive gear.

• 12 devices can draw power simultaneously across AC and USB
• ETL certified
• 30 day return and 12 month warranty
• 6 foot cord with a flat plug

Who it's for

Works well for a dorm room, desk or home office setup where several devices and USB chargers need to share outlets without adapters crowding each other out. Less suited to protecting high value electronics that call for a higher joule rating.

Performance notes

Surge protection is spread across overload, short circuit, over current, over voltage and overheating protection, with a minimum energy absorbing capacity of 900 joules, and the strip cuts power automatically if a surge exceeds what it can absorb. The 3 sided body spaces its 8 outlets 1.8 inches apart, wider than the roughly 1.5 inch spacing on a standard strip, which is the detail that actually matters when large power adapters are involved. The 4 USB ports split into USB-A ports at up to 2.4A each and one USB-C port at up to 3A, enough to charge phones and small tablets without a separate wall charger.
