Tripp Lite Power Expansion Charging Hub Apple USB C Power Adapter 4-Port (U280-A04-A3C1)
Apple power adapters take up space on the strip while feeding only a single computer. We built this hub to snap directly onto the block and split that feed across several connections. Phones, tablets and accessories charge alongside the laptop without adding another wall wart to the run.

How this one is built
Housing fit
The unit attaches over your existing power brick to stay put while you plug and unplug cords. It keeps the desktop tidy and frees up nearby receptacles on the power strip.
Power delivery port
A dedicated USB-C connection carries high-wattage charging through to the laptop. Current flows through the hub so the computer charges the same way it does from the wall.
Quick charge output
One dedicated port feeds fast-charging handheld gear that accepts the standard. It ramps up the feed to replenish drained batteries faster than standard wall taps.
Accessory charging bank
A pair of additional USB-A ports handles everyday peripherals, headsets and secondary phones. Built-in circuitry monitors the load to guard against short circuits, overcharging and excessive heat.
