1 / 7Addtam 8-Way Tower Extension Lead with 5 m Cable and USB Ports
The Addtam tower extension lead combines eight AC outlets with four USB ports in a vertical format and has a stated 5-metre cable. Its socket count and compact footprint suit a desk or other area where several devices need power, while the USB output claims are modest compared with dedicated high-output chargers.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Eight widely spaced AC outlets are intended to accommodate larger plugs without crowding.
- The upright body uses less desk surface than a flat multi-socket strip, according to the listing.
- A 5-metre lead offers more placement flexibility than a short-cable tower.
Cons
- USB-C output is specified at up to 3A, so buyers seeking a particular fast-charging standard should not assume support beyond that stated current.

What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing gives differing USB counts in some wording, referring to four USB ports overall but also using singular phrasing for USB-C output. It also varies between 250V and 13A/250V/3250W wording, while listing 3250 watts and 13 Amps elsewhere. Confirm the exact selected model and ratings on its label. Keep the combined appliance load within 3250W, as instructed by the listing. Protection features and charging performance are manufacturer claims, not independently verified here.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Desk and home-office setups needing several AC sockets plus USB charging in a compact upright form.
- Buyers who need a longer extension lead for placing a power tower away from the wall socket.
Less suited to
- Anyone requiring a specified USB charging protocol or higher output than the listing's stated USB current.
- Setups whose combined power demand exceeds 3250W.

Customer feedback is largely positive about socket quantity, compactness, desk use, appearance and perceived sturdiness, with customers also describing the tower as easy to keep out of sight. Those impressions fit its eight-outlet vertical layout, though they do not verify the listing's electrical ratings or protection claims. The overall rating distribution is mostly five-star, but a smaller share of ratings is lower, so experiences are not uniformly positive.
Positive themes
- Customers report appreciating the number of sockets and compact design.
- Feedback describes it as useful at work desks and easy to hide.
- Customers mention its appearance and sturdiness.
