We have all been there. You look under your desk or behind your TV stand and are greeted by a tangled, dusty horror show of cables that looks less like a power solution and more like a nest of robotic vipers. The traditional power strip, that beige plastic rectangle that has plagued our floors for decades, is a necessary evil that we have simply accepted—until now.

If you are tired of playing “adapter Tetris” every time you need to plug in a new gadget, the TESSAN Surge Protector Power Strip Tower is here to civilize your electricity. It is not just a plug socket; it is a vertical monument to organization, designed to turn your chaotic charging situation into a streamlined power hub.

The first thing you notice is the form factor. By flipping the traditional strip on its head—literally—Tessan has created a space-saving marvel. This 14-in-1 powerhouse features a clever vertical design that occupies a fraction of the footprint of a standard strip, reclaiming valuable real estate on your desk or nightstand. With 11 widely spaced AC outlets positioned perpendicularly to the floor, it solves the age-old problem of bulky “wall wart” adapters blocking adjacent sockets.

You can finally plug in your MacBook charger, your camera battery dock, and your lamp without having to sacrifice a socket in between. It is this thoughtful ergonomic spacing that allows the tower to handle a massive variety of plugs simultaneously while keeping the whole system tucked away neatly in a corner.

But a modern workspace runs on more than just standard AC plugs, and the TESSAN Tower understands this implicitly. Integrated into its sleek chassis are three USB charging ports, including a high-speed USB-C port capable of 3A output and two USB-A ports. This means you can free up those AC outlets for heavier appliances while your phone, tablet, and smartwatch juice up directly from the tower.

It effectively acts as a centralized charging station for your entire digital life. And you don’t need to worry about it tipping over when you plug in a heavy cord; the base is engineered for stability, featuring four rubber anti-slip mats that keep the tower firmly planted on your desktop, preventing it from sliding around like a hockey puck.

Of course, with great power comes the need for great responsibility, or in this case, safety. Priced at a very reasonable $42.99, this isn’t just a splitter; it’s a guardian for your expensive electronics. The tower comes armed with a comprehensive suite of protection features, including a surge protector rated at 1050 Joules to absorb those dangerous spikes during storms.

It also features a built-in circuit breaker with an overload switch that automatically shuts off power if the load exceeds the rated 1875W (15A), protecting your gaming rig or home theater setup from short circuits, over-currents, and overheating.

Even the cable connecting the tower to the wall has been designed with an eye for detail. The 6-foot heavy-duty extension cord terminates in a 45-degree flat plug. This low-profile design is a game-changer for anyone trying to power a setup behind a sofa, wardrobe, or bookshelf, allowing you to push furniture almost flush against the wall without bending the cord or blocking the second outlet.

Whether you are outfitting a college dorm, a high-powered home office, or just trying to tidy up the living room, the TESSAN Surge Protector Power Strip Tower offers a blend of capacity, safety, and smart design that makes the old plastic strip look positively prehistoric.
