This post has been hanging out in drafts since Jan
I knew I saved it for a reason
January 10th, I charged on my charge at Amazon, this charging station.
I can now charge 7 devices at one time on my kitchen counter.
It has 3 power outlets, and 4 USB ports that charge.
The above pics were taken while setting it up. the lower right is a 3 power extension cord, only 20 inches of cord. I used it to put behind the toaster oven for more outlets.
I plugged 3 chargers that go in the wall into it and created 7
I did not buy these but gathered from different places in the house.
BTW I have one in the bathroom wall that stays there for emergency use of cell or kindle that are not fully charge
Above is what the counter looks like today
 the tiny extension cord is now hanging from the wall next to my rocker the short cord, 20 inches brought to mind way back 3 years ago my conversation with an employee that said They Don't Make Short Cords, prior post HERE |
| which is the port that the Bonsai tree is plugged in so I don't have to use batteries. also gives me an extra charging port by the rocker in case I forget to charge the phone. Of course The Op Pack made a comment about the wires and now they are The Chronicle of Woes, not WOOS because she sent me the link to THIS and I am fighting the impulse as I type this Will it ever end???? |

What IS that cable box on your link, the one for $38.00? There was no description anywhere. Are you thinking of buying it? I really like this charger! Our couch has a USB port on each side, and that is where I charge various things. But I could sure use this.
Wow, you have a lot of devices!
I, the Tigger, suspect all those wires/cables/electrical canals would drive the female human in my house nuts. Mr B would b in 7th heaven; he's always buying new things to plug in and concocting things to plug them into.
it's like an all in one too... super!
You are blogland's techno-geek! (And that's a good, sincere remark - derogatory!)
That should say NOT derogatory.
Our new sofa has charging points at each end so we both have one each.
When I read the header I thought you and Bob had some new exercise game going, lol

Hello,
It is nice having the charging station. My computer desk looks awful with all the cords hanging down. They are all plug into to a surge protector. Take care, enjoy your day!
I really got a charge out of this post...ha ha ha. So on your counter, is that a phone or a tablet that is on that black base? Is that a charger as well? I'm also curious about the cable box in the link. Like Ginny I didn't see any description. I'm just full of questions today.

Yes, the tidying and securing of leads and cables is high on my priority list - I have been known to use toilet roll cardboard stuck together to make cable channels - or just good old cable ties. YAM xx
Very useful, but if I had anything like this it would have to be hidden away. Cords and wires drive me insane!
I dont have enough outlets in the right places to go with short cords...the only one that is short is one I use in the kitchen on my kindle.
Tom doesn't know it yet, but he/we need that charging station. Good thing I haven't yet uploaded my Amazon order.
That box is neat, but I'm wondering if someone couldn't make one of their own, using one of the pretty Dollar Store boxes and a Sharpie. Hmmmmmm.......
I only have 2 devices that need charging...I bet that made you GASP...just 2. LOL. I do like the link to the hidden cable box the OP sent

You have a ton of devices there girlfriend. Yikes.
I've pretty much got into a routine of charging different things in different places. I wouldn't have a good place to put a multi-charger anyway.
NOPE, SANDRA..IT WILL NEVER END FOR YOU. YOUR MIND JUST GOES THAT WAY...oops, sorry, I'm not shouting...
Your eagerness to learn and manage will always win!
You are Ever-ready!!
I ordered a new battery for my camera..I sure hope it works on my archaic camera. Its suppose to come Saturday.
It's almost impossible to keep the charge on my old battery. Doing all the eBay photos is very trying so I hope this will be Full Steam ahead.

I hope it never ends because I learn so much from you! Amber and Mike have a cool charging station and I use it when I am over there. I have one simple charger by the bed. I who have multiples of just about everything!But I only charge my phone and iPad plus the candle lighter thing Amber gave me.
I liked the look of that wooden box on the link. Amber needs something like that! ALl four kids have tablets or some such thing and loads of things to charge from cameras to phones to iPads and more.
It seems that there is no end to the cords and cables we have around the house.i have all but given up on trying to keep them all neat and tidy.
Oh no, what have we done???? We don't want to be enablers, but the box is really nice for hiding cords. Check the measurements first, though, because that charging station might not fit. We use a power strip.

Oh wow, that cable box sounds like a good idea ;)
