Handy power strip finally offers enough room for everything

If you use computers, there’s never enough power outlets. Printers, modems, monitors, chargers and the like soon fill all the outlets. Those old fashioned strip outlets are filled with weirdly-shaped chargers and the space under our desks looks like a rat’s nest.

That’s why I really love the PowerSquid Surge 300 Calamari, a surge protector that not only neatens everything up but also has adequate space for even the clunkiest charger brick.

As you can see, it kind of looks like a squid. But there are so many nifty features built into this that, for $69, it’s the best I’ve found.

It offers two blue neon glowing outlets to ensure you can always find a plug under a dark desk.

A 360-degree swivelling flat profile plug enables you to easily plug into a wall outlet hidden behind a desk or book case without rearranging the furniture.

Additional connectivity is provided to protect your cable and DSL lines. Powerful 58dB PureStream™ filters and an audible alarm housed in a luminous white body with a blue shield ensure that your gear is always protected.
