My house was struck by lightning just last week. The outlet this was plugged into - fried. The surge protector? Fried. The 2 iPhones, 2 Kindles, and MS Surface that were plugged into said surge protector?
All A-ok!!
To think that little thing took the hit of a lightning strike and not just a power surge - and still saved all of my electronics is nothing short of amazing.
He gave up his life to his duty to protect others.
Rest in Peace, little buddy.

I could not find any extra extension cords at my house. I went out shopping and came across this Insignia 4 outlet power hub that has 3 USB units for charging the tablets, cell phones, etc. This comes with a power surge protection. This hub just plugs into the outlet. No more cords to deal with that are on the floor. Since it is higher up than the floor plugging in USB items to charge is easier. You no longer have to get those extra long USB cords to plug your items into a extension cords that sit on the floor. This is the one item that I would buy more of to replace those extension cords. Just think - just one of these you went from a 2 plug outlet to a 4 plug outlet with surge protection and 3 USB Ports.

Bought to Have USB Ports in a Kitchen Area.

Bought to Have 3 USB Ports in a Kitchen Area, plus a few extra AC Plugs. - It did seem a bit overpriced.., but it does have a quality look to the design, compared to some other cheaper looking, and cheaper priced similar type items.
The 3 USB ports are Useful to Me (in Our Kitchen Area) to Charge my Garmin Fēnix 5S Smartwatch every 2 weeks or so.., and our Two iPhone's Regularly, and the Few extra plugs are used to Charge 4 Outdoor (Yard) Equipment Rechargeable Batteries (You do cover up an existing 2 plug outlet, so you Gain Two Extra 120vac Outlet Plugs).
The only thing it is missing is a long mount screw in the center of the 4 120vac Plugs area, so it would be Firmly held into the 120vac outlet that you choose to plug it into... When you pull an AC plug out, it will pull the device Out of the wall outlet power plug.. Not really a big deal, once you note (the first time this happens) that you Need to hold this adapter device, as you Remove AC Plugs from it.. (hence the 4 Star Review).

This compact USB charge simple plugs into a wall outlet. It has 3 USB ports that are strong enough to charge tablets as well as phones. I like that it simply plugs in and basically provided a recharge station for the family devices.

Compact Hub With Several Outlets

Purchased this product so that we can have access to more outlets than rather having solely two outlets- and we are not disappointed by this hub!
It’s very compact, a bit bulky but still compact. Works well and includes 4 outlets and 3 USB ports which come in very handy when wanting to charge multiple items at the same time.
With this hub I’m able to charge all of my devices such as my computer, iPhone, Apple Watch and iPad by connecting them all to the hub and still having outlets empty for other uses.
Overall, I’m very content with my purchase and this hub has come very in handy. It is small and portable so I’m able to take this with me everywhere.

Good surge protector. USB outlets are a nice touch and the minimal design is good for expanding a 2-outlet power source. A little pricey though.

Great product to have, especially if you have limited space. Obviously I could plug in a cable somewhere else, but this is the most handy thing I've purchased in a long time. Have 2 tablets and a phone that need charging. This thing takes care of it all. Everything now plugged in to the outlet behind the chair I plant my rear end in to 90% of the day. No more bringing a tablet across the room to charge. Buy it. It works great and is handy as h@#l!
A:AnswerThe plastic pin in the back plugs into the ground hole in the bottom outlet for stability. I would recommend using this unit on an outlet that does not have the test/reset as those outlets types are for use around water to prevent electrical surges. I don't recommend using this product in areas where water would be present (i.e. bathroom, kitchen, etc).
A:AnswerYes you can plug a regular plug into it and Yes it does plug into a regular outlets. At first my son couldn't get it to fit right but my boyfriend got it to fit. As for plugs only going in half way, well, we had that problem as well. You just have to push it hard in there and after a couple of times of using it, problem gone. I love this product and wish I had it along time ago. It's awesome and as I said. I love it. Hope I was helpful.
