is there such a thing - multiple charger?

Hey, hey,

We have several electrical devices in the home that require charges ie mobile phones, tablets etc. I have set up a 4 way adapter in our office where all the chargers are kept plugged in and so everyone knows where they are. But it is messy.

What does everyone else use to charge devices and keep the wires/leads etc tidy?

Just keep a USB charger near and change wires when needed.

Only need Micro USB and Apples cable though so it is not very messy.

You can get a four-socket USB device charger on ebay, they're supposedly pretty decent compared to the usual china-crap chargers. Intl-Outdoor, who sell nice flashlights also have the same charger.

Here's a review (charger #4) of that charger which shows its generally above-average construction and genuine power-ratings;

I had a charger that had 2x USB ports. Not sure how good it is, I just know that when I leave it on overnight, it charges.

It's now a discontinued product. You'll probably struggle to get hold of all the sleeves/clips/adapters depending what devices you want to charge. I didn't fancy having a Duracell iPhone 4 sleeve on my phone in order to use the MyGrid so I gave mine away.

Multi port USB charger, with through socket as well.
