# hotimy HOTIMY-PC2M14-3250 8-Socket Tower Extension Lead

The hotimy HOTIMY-PC2M14-3250 tower extension lead combines eight AC sockets with six USB ports and a claimed 2-metre cable. Its USB output is shared and limited to 18W total, so it is best suited to topping up smaller devices rather than powering USB-C laptops.

## At a glance

- Eight AC outlets are arranged in two directions, with the listing describing 55mm spacing for larger UK adapters.
- Six USB ports comprise two USB-C and four USB-A. Their combined output is listed as 18W at 5V.
- The listing describes two side switches for controlling the AC outlets and a digital display showing charging voltage and current.
- An overload cut-off and reset/off switch are specified. The listing also claims child safety shutters and high-temperature-resistant materials.

## Pros

- Eight AC sockets and six USB ports provide a broad range of connection points in one tower.
- The stated 55mm spacing is intended to accommodate larger adapters without crowding neighbouring sockets.
- Two switches let users control the AC outlets, while the display shows USB charging voltage and current.

## Cons

- USB charging is limited to a shared 18W at 5V, and the listing says the USB-C ports do not support devices requiring 9V to 22V charging.

## Before you buy

- The listing conflicts on USB-C count: its main feature text and specifications state four Type-C ports and two USB-A ports, while the detailed description states two Type-C and four USB-A. It also gives cable options of 2 or 4 metres but separately claims a 2-metre cord. Confirm the selected version's port layout and cable length before buying. The stated 18W is shared across USB ports, and the listing says USB-C does not support devices needing 9V to 22V charging.

## A good fit for

- People needing several AC sockets and USB charging points for a desk or home workspace.
- Buyers charging phones, tablets or other USB devices that accept 5V charging.

## Less suited to

- People who need USB-C charging for a MacBook or another device requiring 9V to 22V.
- Buyers who need a confirmed cable length or USB port arrangement without checking the selected listing.

## Customer feedback

Aggregate ratings lean positive, with most ratings in the top two star categories, but a smaller low-rating share means the figures alone cannot explain owners’ experiences. No specific customer comments are available here, so they do not establish how the USB output, switches or overload protection perform in use.

## Frequently asked questions

### How many USB ports does this extension tower have?
The product details state six USB ports: two USB-C and four USB-A. However, the main feature text reverses those counts, so check the selected listing version before ordering.
### Can its USB-C ports charge a laptop?
The listing says the Type-C ports do not support MacBook, MacBook Air or other devices that require 9V to 22V charging. It specifies a shared 18W USB output at 5V.
### What is the cable length?
The listing gives cable length options of 2 metres and 4 metres, while other copy describes a 2-metre cord. Confirm the cable length for the selected version.
### Does it have overload protection?
Yes. The listing describes overload protection that cuts power when the rated limit is exceeded, with a reset/off switch.
