# Sameriver ZYC05 Tower Extension Lead, 2 m, 8 AC Outlets and 4 USB Ports

The Sameriver ZYC05 tower extension lead combines eight AC outlets with four USB ports in a tower-style unit, with a 2-metre cord. Its separate panel switches and compact footprint may help organise a desk or home charging area, though the listing gives inconsistent electrical and USB specifications to check before use.

## Before you buy

- The listing describes switches as independent by side or row, and elsewhere as control for each pair of sockets. Confirm which outlets each switch controls if that distinction matters.
- The listing is contradictory or inconsistent about electrical compatibility and power: it specifies a Type B plug alongside 250 Volts, 13 Amps and 3250 watts, while a feature also states 13A 2990W. USB details are also inconsistent: one claim specifies 4 USB ports with a USB-C port, while the title and other details do not confirm the port mix. Check the selected listing and local plug compatibility before purchase. The manufacturer advises not exceeding the rated power and not connecting portable heaters, refrigerators or large appliances to the extension lead.
- The listing states a 1-year product warranty, while a feature claim promises an 18-month warranty. Confirm the applicable warranty term with the seller.

## A good fit for

- People wanting multiple AC outlets and USB charging in one compact tower for a desk or home area.
- Buyers who value separate switches for managing connected devices and reducing cable clutter.

## Less suited to

- Anyone who needs confirmed UK plug compatibility or a settled rating before connecting equipment.
- Users needing a confirmed USB-C configuration or higher total USB charging output.

## Customer feedback

Customer feedback highlights the compact tower shape, cable organisation, USB ports and individual switching as useful. These points align with the listed 12 connection points and separate-switch design. Durability feedback is mixed, with some customers describing the unit as robust and others reporting failures within weeks, so reliability remains a consideration. The aggregate ratings are mostly five-star, but ratings alone do not establish durability or electrical compatibility.
- Positive themes: Customers appreciate the compact size and tidier cable arrangement.
- Positive themes: Customers praise the individual switches, USB ports and design.
- Mixed feedback: Durability feedback is mixed, including reports of units failing within weeks.

## Frequently asked questions

### How many devices can it connect?
The listing describes eight AC outlets and four USB ports, for 12 connection points. It does not establish that all combinations of devices can be used within the stated power limit.
### What is the USB charging output?
The listed claim is up to 3.4 A and 17 W total, with USB-C up to 3.0 A and each USB-A up to 2.4 A. Check the selected listing because other product details do not confirm the USB port mix.
### Is it compatible with UK sockets?
The listing specifies a Type B plug, so UK plug compatibility is not established. Confirm the plug type and suitability before buying.
### What warranty is listed?
The product details specify a 1-year warranty, while a feature claim says 18 months. Confirm which term applies to the selected listing.
