Review on πŸ’‘ Electriduct Desktop PowerTap Grommet: Surge Protector, USB Charger 2.4A (Black) by Richard Simmons

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Cannot connect both USB sockets at the same time

Plug this into the special headboard I built to charge my phone at night. I like that he hides when I don't need him. The only problem I have is that when I try to connect two devices to the USB sockets, it can't handle it and the device goes from 'charging' to 'not charging' almost every second. Plugs don't seem to do this at all, only USB slots. As I was looking forward to charging my phone and tablet overnight, I guess I'll have to stick to the mains for now. Unfortunately at the time of purchase it looked like the only (reasonably priced) item I could find, which would do its job by hiding the power supply with a USB port. I had no choice.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Wall socket required
