This cube power strip is a compact way to add three outlets, USB ports, and a 5 foot cord in a small footprint, especially beside a sofa or table. The cube shape can save space when few things are plugged in and helps cords and bricks sit flatter. The USB side is modest, with 15 to 18 watts total and a mix of USB A ports, so it feels more like a basic charger than a high power hub. It also lacks surge protection, which matters for some setups, though that makes it usable where surge protectors are not allowed.

Common Questions (3)

  • No surge protection is mentioned for this cube, and it is treated as a plain power tap rather than a surge protector. That makes it better for use behind an existing surge-protected strip or in places where surge protection is not needed, such as cruise travel.

  • The USB section is limited to 15W max in one comment and 18W total spread across the three USB outputs in another. That is enough for light charging, but it is not a high-power USB-C charger and may be the reason the unit is inexpensive.

  • It can save space when used by itself or when nothing is plugged in, especially next to a sofa or table. When all outlets are populated, the cube shape takes more room than a traditional multitap, so it works best for occasional charging rather than a permanent crowded setup.

Looks like a knockoff of the Honeywell but an extra port. the Honeywell has surge protection though. this is a very good deal if it's safe.

Thanks for the link. The OP's has a on/off switch. As for lacking the surge protection, my use case is to plug it to a power strip with the surge protection, not directly to the wall.

any thoughts on this cube shape when you're using all the plug spots. Seems like it'd be a huge waste of space

Then I would definitely not get one with surge protection. I'm not a fan of plugging surge protectors into surge protectors. As an electronics designer i'm also not a fan of button electrical switches on power taps though- most likely it's a low quality connection in series with the power and will be the safety weak point.

I have one of these, it's fine. I think it's best suited for having ready next to a couch. In that case, it's usually a laptop charger or similar, and could be coming from many angles. Having outlets on cubes takes more space when populated, but takes less space when free, so it's kind of a matter of preference. It also helps encourage the cables/bricks you plug in to lay flat, which is why I think it lends itself to floor use. But if you're using it on the floor, the USB cables lend themselves to getting stepped on and bent, so idk, use your imagination

15 watts max? That's kind of low these days. That's probably why they're cheap

I have this one (one working, one busted) and a couple of the rectangular cuboid ones (always wanted to use this term in a comment!) that have more plugs of course. When it's all by itself it saves space vs a traditional extension multitap. The use case is not wall mount or leave on the floor with stuff constantly plugged in, rather keep next to the sofa or table so you can charge whatever- the extra 2 power outlets are a bonus. Is this better nowadays than an Anker with a few high power USB C that can charge anything? Probably not, but it's much cheaper.

The Honeywell has a sharp corner shape and 300J of surge protection. It's a toy, not a surge protector.

Thumb-down for 18W total spread among the 3 outputs. So this is really just an extension cord with a bit of a USB charger. You're probably better off just buying a cheap extension cord and using a better charger.

Seriously? Why? Especially when Covid or not are all freely permitted!

that's true, when there is nothing plugged in, and you dont plan to normally have things plugged in, this is a space saver
