Rick’s Daily Pick…
QINLIANF 1680-Joule 5-Outlet Surge Protector w/ 4 USB Charging Ports
This little gem will convert any standard 120VAC wall outlet into a combination 5-outlet surge protector and charging station.
It’s super easy to install. Simply remove the screw holding the cover plate onto the existing outlet, the plug this device into the outlet and tighten the mounting screw. This is quite literally a 30 second installation.
