Pros & Cons
Pros
The trond tower power bar is a versatile addition and offers an impressive 14 widely spaced outlets and 4 usb ports (including 2 usb-c) the usb ports on the top are very helpful to help power up devices such as laptop fans and charge phone/mouse/keybo... Read More
The surge protector feature adds an extra layer of security, safeguarding your valuable electronics from power surges. The more expensive surge protectors often also feature lifetime warranties, as well as warranty for any connected devices.
No more struggling to find a free outlet or unplugging one device to make room for another. It seems so many things we have nowadays need to be plugged in. This allows me to plug in everything i need.
It’s ideal for the office, for the bedroom, living room, etc. There lies my conundrum. It is a little weird but i own several trond towers and power bars and this one feels cheaper than the others.
Cons
It is disappointing that such a well conceived charge station does not have ul or csa certification. The absence of the csa or ul mark means that the device has not been tested for safety standards in us and canada.
Highlights
Quality
The charging outlets on top are also fantastic and works amazingly well with my extra long, ps5 controller charging cable.
Its shape is very modern and the round design makes it very easy to plug in an assortment of different shaped cords and plugs.
This surge protector is made of plastic, has 14 outlets, and 4 non-fast charging usb ports.
Now, just two months later, another plug stopped working and of course it is now out of the return window… i do not recommend at all.
Price
At a cost of approximately $2 per plug-in capacity available, an excellent price/value metric is offered.
Overall, this seems competitively priced, and i rate it a 4.
Consider the price of $40, i think this is a good buy.
You can decide if that is worth the extra cost.
Packaging/appearance
As arrived, box is professional and descriptive- good as a giftout of the box, the power 'bar' is solid plastic with a 6ft cord... Read More
Competitiveness
The super thin half inch thick flat wall plug saves a considerable amount of space in comparison of regular plugs.
Compare to other power bars that provide the similar number of outlets, this one is consider small.
The manufacturer could set various price points for each unit size, and the customer would have more product customization opti... Read More

Out of the 14 power outlets 8 are wide spaced and those are the one that i love the most as things do not have to compete for space the rest 6 are too close with a set of three outlets on opposite sides

The only improvement would be just making the power outlets from the 2 x sets of 3s to set of 2s for each set
