Manufacturer description

The TROND Power Strip Surge Protector solves the two problems that make most strips useless behind furniture: plug crowding and a bulky wall-side head. Ten AC outlets are arranged both horizontally and vertically with wide spacing, so blocky wall-warts and oversized adapters seat without stealing a neighboring slot. Add 2 USB-C ports (up to 3A each) and 2 USB-A ports (up to 2.4A each) and you can power and charge up to 14 devices from one strip, with a combined 3.4A/17W USB budget. The 45-degree right-angled flat plug sits low against the wall so it fits under a desk or behind a dresser…

SpecPicks Verdict

SpecPicks scored TROND Power Strip Surge Protector using a rating × review-volume × price-fit model applied to published specs and reviews across the home & kitchen category. TROND's home & kitchen lineup sits within the broader category mid-tier; price and specs are the deciding factors over brand loyalty here. Judge it on the specification table and the price rather than on sentiment: check the figures that decide your use case, then put it side-by-side with two or three close alternatives in the Compare tool before clicking through.

Common buyer scenarios for home & kitchen of this kind: matching it to an existing build, replacing a failing part, or upgrading from a previous-generation equivalent. Check the spec table below against your current setup — particularly socket / form-factor / power-rating fields — and confirm compatibility on the retailer's listing before purchase. Prices and stock are set by the retailer and may have moved since this page was last updated.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many devices can this TROND power strip charge at once?

Up to 14 total: 10 AC outlets plus 2 USB-C and 2 USB-A ports. The AC side handles 1875W at 125V/15A, and the USB ports share a 3.4A/17W total output.

Will the flat plug fit behind a TV or under a desk?

Yes. The plug is a 45-degree right-angled low-profile design meant to sit flush under or behind furniture, and it does not cover the second outlet on the wall receptacle.

Is 4000J enough surge protection for a computer and TV?

4000J is a high joule rating for a consumer strip, and TROND lists TVs, computers, phones, and office equipment as intended loads. The unit is ETL listed with a UL94 V-0 flame-retardant body.

Can this power strip be mounted on a wall?

Yes. It has four mounting holes on both sides for screw-mounting to a wall, entertainment center, workbench, garage wall, or the underside of a desk or counter.

How long is the cord and what gauge is it?

The cord is 5 feet of 14 AWG pure copper, which is heavy enough to carry the full 15A rating rather than the thinner 16 or 18 AWG used on lighter-duty strips.
