1 / 7HBN 4-Outlet Remote-Control Extension Lead, 4 USB Ports, 2 m
The HBN remote-control extension lead combines four individually controllable mains outlets with four USB charging ports and a 2-metre cable. It may suit a desk or living area where remote switching and USB charging are useful, but USB output is shared across the ports.
At a glance
- The supplied remote is claimed to switch each of the four mains outlets separately or all together.
- Four USB ports comprise two Type-A and two Type-C, with a stated total output of 5V/3.4A.
- A 2-metre cable provides reach from the wall socket, subject to the room layout.
- The listing claims surge protection and indicator lights for surge protection, grounding and power status.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Remote control of outlets can reduce the need to reach the extension lead to switch connected devices.
- Four USB ports can charge compatible devices without occupying the mains outlets, though their stated output is shared.
- The 13A rating and stated 3120W maximum load are clearly specified for planning connected mains devices.
Cons
- USB charging is limited to a shared stated total of 5V/3.4A, so several connected devices divide that output.

What to know before buying
- The listing describes a 13A, 3120W maximum load and says it can handle heaters or kettles. Treat these as total extension-lead limits, not per-socket capacity, and do not exceed the rating of the lead or connected appliances.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- People wanting remote switching for several lamps, fans or chargers in one location.
- Set-ups needing both Type-A and Type-C USB charging alongside four mains outlets.
- Buyers who can make use of a 2-metre cable and a UK Type G plug.
Less suited to
- People needing high-output USB charging for several devices at once.
- Set-ups that require a longer lead than 2 metres or independently confirmed protection specifications.

Aggregate customer ratings lean positive overall, with a smaller one-star share. Ratings alone do not show what customers praised or criticised, so they cannot establish how well the remote, USB charging or protection claims perform in practice.
Frequently asked questions
Can the four mains outlets be controlled separately?
The listing says the remote can switch the four AC outlets individually or all at once.
How many USB ports are included, and what is their stated output?
There are four ports: two Type-A and two Type-C. Their combined stated output is 5V/3.4A, shared across connected devices.
What is the maximum stated load?
The listing specifies 13A and a maximum load of 3120W for the extension lead. This is a total limit, not a rating for each outlet.
Does it claim surge protection?
Yes. The listing claims built-in surge protection with an indicator light, but the supplied information does not provide an independent verification or detailed protection rating.
