HANYCONY 5 m Extension Lead, 8 Outlets and 4 USB Ports

What to know before buying

Listing details to confirm

The manufacturer describes surge protection and a 5-metre cable. Customer feedback is mixed on cable length, with some saying it is shorter than advertised. The title and feature details also differ in USB-C count: the title says two USB-C ports, while USB output details specify one USB-C port at up to 3A and the port configuration says two. Confirm the selected listing’s port layout and cable length before buying.

Who is it for?

A good fit for

  • People needing multiple AC outlets and USB charging at a desk, living area or dorm.

Less suited to
