I'm sitting on my couch. When I sat down my laptop was at about 10 percent. I keep my gadgets charged in the living room by blocking the outlets with a block. I like my cube.
It has been a long time since I started doing this. I used long cables across the couch or a portable battery to charge my phone before I got the power cube. As I started accumulating tablets, a switch and all my guests' devices, they didn't get better.
There are a lot of options for charging gadgets. There is a drawer full of cables on the side table. I have a charging station next to my couch, but it doesn't solve the cable issue for people on the other side. Surge protectors are large and bulky, and wireless charging pads can only travel so far.

The cube is entered.
The Power cube was the first one I got. Five full-size outlets were present. The original design was to plug directly into the wall sockets, but later versions had a cord attached so you could run more plugs further away.
This whole thing is made possible by that part. I have an outlet behind the couch in a lot of places. You have to go away from the wall to get a plug for that outlet. The cable under the couch allowed the cube to sit in the middle. It is more convenient if you have a corner couch. It is nearly impossible to kick or trip over it in the corner.
It is easy to plug in a cable on the couch. Do you think a full-size charge for a laptop is possible? There's no problem. There is a phone with ausb cable. It's easy. My current favorite is the cube from Anke r. It has three outlets, three ports, and one side that is flat.
It came in handy when I got a couch that was too tall. The cube can be caught on the bottom of the couch if it's low enough. The cube can get stuck under the couch if it is too tall. I put a small amount of tape on the floor and the cube where I wanted it to stay. This may not be as easy as people with carpets think.
