Makes organizing your wires a snap

I bought a new desk that raises and lowers so it can be used for standing or sitting. That movement requires that the wires for my monitor, speakers, and power supply be carefully arranged so that they can move freely but will not snag. The desk came with a couple of clips like these and I realized quickly that they're incredibly helpful, so I ordered this bag of 25 -- and sure enough, I've gone nuts with them. It fits around up to 4-5 USB wires, or 2 thick power cables easily, But with 25 in the bag, you can easily put them wherever you need to keep something from drooping. It can be tricky to get the little zip tab into the slot with a bunch of wires wrapped up, but once in, you're off to the races. I've now used some of these to organize the wires around my TV/stereo set up in the living room. Just a warning: the adhesive is strong, adheres fast and cannot be removed without a lot of effort. it could also damage delicate surfaces, so be sure you're attaching only to places where you really want it.Pro tip: Get your cables installed and organized, use the zip to secure them together in bundles every 8-10 inches (the approx distance before some wires start to droop), but don't remove the adhesive cover strip until you're absolutely ready to lock everything in final position. This will let you test to make sure you can still move things if you need to adjust stuff before you commit. Also don't lock things down so tightly that you can't move components around or adjust things. a little slack is good.

Pros
  • 5 star product for cable management
Cons
  • May not hold up well in high traffic areas
