Anker Power Strip, $28 (was $40) at Amazon
Just about every power strip under the sun works as it should, but you won't know if it has the power to truly protect all your expensive devices until you experience a power surge. This Anker strip has eight points of safety, including grounded overload, overtemperature, overcurrent, overvoltage, surge, and short-circuit protection, as well as built-in fire resistance. In the worst-case scenario, you can ensure this strip will take the brunt of the damage, keeping your expensive phones, laptops, gaming devices, televisions, and whatever else you plug into it in full working order.
This strip includes 12 AC, one USB-C, and two USB-A outlets, providing multiple ways to power up. Its larger size accommodates cumbersome power bricks and oddly shaped chargers, so you'll be able to make the most of this strip no matter where you mount it.
"I’ve been using the Anker Surge Protector Power Strip for a few weeks now, and it’s been a solid addition to my home office setup," one shopper said. "The USB-C port delivers 20 watts, which is great for quickly charging my cell phone without needing an extra adapter. The five-foot extension cord gives me the flexibility to place it exactly where I need it, and the flat plug is a nice touch — it fits easily behind furniture. If you need a high-capacity, well-designed power strip for home or office, this one’s a great choice."
The Anker Power Strip retails for $40, but you can shop it at Amazon for only $28 for a limited time. At that price, you can buy one for every room in the house and rest easy knowing that you'll be safe in the event of a power surge.
