Monoprice 3 Outlet Power Surge Protector Wall Tap with 2 USB Ports & Phone Holder for $12.60 + shipping
Organize and protect your electronics with this Monoprice surge protector! This model is designed to attach to a wall outlet, providing three protected power outlets plus a pair of USB charger ports with a total capacity of 2.1 amps. It even has 2 phone holders for your cell phones to help keep your countertops clear and tidy while recharging.
It looks like Mickey Mouse :D
$6.95 shipping
In my opinion, shipping costs keep this from being a deal
Anyone know where I can get something similar for cheaper? Seems like a decent deal to me but if you've got something better, then by all means...
Order 5 and pay $70 shipped, or $14 each. I'm still not sure it's worth $14.It's an interesting idea with the flip carriers though.
It says 2 port 2.1A USB charger. Does that mean 2.1A total across both ports or 2.1A each port? I am always looking for charging devices that can charge 2 kindles at once.
I have a 2 port charger and it never occurred to me that you couldn't charge two items at the same time. I mean if it is has TWO usb ports, eh?
@euphio: One of the few consolations about having to pay California sales tax is being withing the Norco Overnite service area. I can get it overnight for $5.85. I would recommend ordering more items from Monoprice and spreading the shipping cost over multiple items. They have the BEST prices on basic stuff like cables, wires, and connectors. Browse around, you might be surprised at what you find they have that you could use. I usually pick up a few of the 1-foot power cord extensions (item 5296) when I can't find something else. Because wall warts seem to multiply and they're a pain to use on powerstrips.

Guess where!
And if you scroll down one is cheaper.
@kennygustafson: Phiips has a similar item. I got mine at Walmart.

Will this even work on an iPhone? Apple is notorious for not letting you use "official wallet raping" Apple Products.
@sterhill: I have one of these and one made by Philips. I charge two items all the time. Usually two tablets. Ipad and Samsung Galaxy Tab. No issues. I prefer the Monoprice because the green light is less noticeable. The Philips has a large red light for some reason.
@lepiane: LOL Amazon
@kennygustafson: Home Depot had something very similar for $14.99, it didnt have the holder for your phones but everything else was about the same.
Could they have put those outlets any closer together??? That's definitely an issue I have with numerous different "surge protectors" that I own.
You can get a similar effect with Monoprice's 2 Port USB Wall Charger 1A - Black, for $6.15 plus $2.80 to ship one. This gives you 2 USB charging sockets plus one AC socket left open. Now that's 1A total, so adequate for phones but not tablets.
Monoprice has nice prices on small items but they really shine when it comes to mounts.
They have the best tv mounts anywhere and the best prices.
Bought one cuz it's a handy dandy idea.
Doh, right after I bought this Bestek one from Amazon for $20. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009DCNP9O
