There’s something universally demoralizing about having an electronic device, but no outlet to plug it into. It makes perfect sense, then, that this highly-rated, eight-outlet surge protector with charging ports was a top best seller for HuffPost readers during last week’s October Prime Day. If you think you missed out, we’ve got good news — the 5-foot version of this helpful buy is back to its Prime Day sale price of 22% off, AKA, under $10.
Not only does this everyday necessity give you more spots to plug in your gizmos and gadgets, but it also has USB-A and USB-C ports built in, eliminating the need for more charging blocks. It’s the type of buy that feels so regular, so mundane, you may overlook it, but after you have it, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it. Users call it a “game changer” for streamlining the tech and wires around the place, even saying they’re buying one for every room. Whether you’re getting one or seven, we recommend buying fast, because we doubt this deal will last long.
Shoppers say it’s a small purchase with a big impact, making their lives so much easier.
The low-profile power strip gives you eight classic plug-in outlets, two USB-A and two USB-C plug-ins, allowing you to power up to 12 items at the same time. Instead of a classic, long rectangular strip, which can be cumbersome to position, this option is more square, allowing access from three sides.
“I used to always have to hunt for adapters, but now with this, I have everything in one place. It’s totally worth it!” said one review.
“It makes plugging in different devices much easier,” another wrote. “Very practical and well thought out.”
Plus, the outlets are graciously spaced out, giving room for bigger adaptors. The brand says the USB inputs offer fast charging to your devices (which users corroborate). People especially love it for cutting cord clutter and giving space for all devices to charge, with many stating they’ve purchased multiple.
“No more cords sticking out of every outlet in the house,” another wrote. “We now have one station, by the garage door, with all of the devices charging in one place. The kids liked the idea so much they each bought one for their rooms. No more cords cluttering the kitchen counters either.”
Additionally, the built-in surge protector is what makes this device especially prized since you can pretty much for these to really last the test of time.
It’s designed to keep your devices from overheating and spiking, as it will automatically cut power when it detects your device is surging. The power strip block also has an overall on/off switch, allowing you to cut power to all devices at once. The device also has a braided, cloth-covered cord meant to protect the wires and minimize overheating, which shoppers say looks nice in their space.
“The little block has charging ports for almost ever[y] size of chords. Also, it doesn’t get even slightly warm,” one wrote. “the surge protection gives me peace of mind that my devices are safe. Definitely a worthwhile purchase,” said another.
While you can easily keep the plug on a table or desk, or conceal it behind a desk or couch, the design also has built-in mounting holes to attach it to your wall. “I have so many of these!” user Valerie D said. “If I ever need another power strip or anything, I just order another one of these. I won’t trust anything else. I love them.”
It’s no wonder this surge protector power strip sold like hot cakes on Prime Day and has earned an impressive rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars. Check out more promising reviews to hear about the strip in action.
“I absolutely love this HANYCONY power strip! I bought it for my workstation and it has exceeded my expectations. Its compact design and braided cable not only look great but also help keep clutter under control. The multiple outlets and USB ports are perfect for charging everything from my laptop to my phone without needing extra adapters. Plus, the surge protection gives me peace of mind that my devices are safe. Definitely a worthwhile purchase. I recommend it 100%!” — Jose Emmanuel
“Love this plug. My house was made by people that apparently don’t know where furniture should go. My plugs are in the worst places. I have to basically move my bed or couch to plug stuff in. This plug has been a game changer. Placing an order for my fourth one now.” — Amazon customer
“I was tired of constantly juggling multiple chargers and struggling to find enough outlets for all of my devices, the Surge Protector Power Strip with 8 Outlets and 4 USB Ports is a life saver. As someone who relies heavily on electronic devices, I recently upgraded to this power strip, and let me tell you—it’s a game-changer. I also appreciate the versatility of this power strip. The widely spaced outlets accommodate larger plugs and adapters, so you can plug in all of your devices without any hassle. And with the addition of 4 USB ports, you can charge your smartphones, tablets, and other USB-powered devices directly from the power strip, eliminating the need for bulky adapters.Overall, I can’t recommend the Surge Protector Power Strip with 8 Outlets and 4 USB Ports enough. It’s a must-have accessory for anyone looking to streamline their charging setup and keep their devices powered up and protected.” — Lori R

Kasa smart plugs, a longtime HuffPost reader and editor favorite
Yep, the surge-protected adapter is GREAT but if you need a little more convenience, this is a solid choice for sure. Former HuffPost editor Janie Campbell previously lauded the Kasa smart plugs, which have since become a HuffPost reader favorite.
“I have houseplants under grow lights in darker corners of my home, and can turn those on and off even if I’m halfway around the world,” she wrote. “I can put them on a schedule when I travel, but still turn that schedule off if someone needs to stay in my apartment. I can leave an appliance running, and turn it off while running errands. I can use my smart plugs for Christmas lights, or to make it appear someone is home for safety. I have a bedroom air purifier set to turn on one hour before my usual bedtime and to turn off in the morning, right as my living room air purifier is scheduled to turn on (doing this with a coffee maker or fan is an absolute no-brainer).”
The plugs have a compact design, work with Alexa and Google Assistant for voice control and come in a convenient four-pack.

A 3-in-1 Apple product charger
We’ve covered this three-in-one Apple product charger before, particularly when it arose as a surprise bestseller during a previous Prime Day. Able to charge an iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods at the same time with just one cord, it’s a major space, time and outlet saver. It has high-powered, fast, wireless charging, is compatible with a ton of Apple product models (check the list on the product page to make sure yours is among them) and comes in six stylish colors.

A universal adapter that’s a must-have for travel (10% off)
I previously sang the praises of this universal travel adapter, which is one of my favorite tech tools among the ones I own. It’s a true example of an all-in-one product: With four different plug types, it accepts plugs from most countries and can plug into sockets from over 200 countries and regions. It has three USB-C ports and two USB-A ports, meaning you can charge or use multiple devices at once (a game-changer for hotel rooms with a limited number of outlets). I even use the adapter to charge my Kindle and portable charger while I’m at home, because the Epicka adapter’s acceptance of so many types of cords and plugs takes some of the guesswork out of the different charging cords for my devices. Hit the coupon for $2.40 off.
