Turn any outlet into a 10-port charging hub for $16 (38% off)

Did you know that your regular wall outlets could be so much more useful? Imagine this: instead of just 2 outlets, what if your receptable provided six outlets and four USB ports? And I’m not talking about a power strip. No power cord to fuss with. Just look at this Anker 10-in-1 Outlet Extender that gloriously allows you to power and charge up to 10 devices at once at a single power receptable. How much would you pay for that? It’s normally $25.99, which is already pretty affordable. But with this Amazon deal, you can now snag it for just $15.99 . That’s a whopping 38% off! View this Amazon deal Let’s recap why this outlet extender is so great. It plugs into any regular 2-outlet receptable, then secures itself with a central screw. That power is then redirected across six AC outlets in a spacious angled layout that minimizes crowding, even with bulky power adapters. Along the bottom edge, you have 2 USB-C and 2 USB-A ports for charging your phone, accessories, etc. When used individually, the main USB-C caps out at 20 watts, the second USB-C at 15 watts, and the USB-A ports at 12 watts. Otherwise you get 15 watts of total charging spread across all of them when two or more are being used. It’s so easy to use and it’s way more sleek than a conventional power strip that flails around with its long power cord and inconvenient outlet layout. It’s perfect as a central charging hub, whether that’s in your home office, living room, or bedroom. Get it now for $15.99 while you can! This limited-time Amazon deal isn’t going to last forever.
