Blutle USB Smart Charging Socket

There are certain devices that are made to make our lives a bit easier and the Blutle USB Smart Charging Socket does that. This simple device is easy to use and very useful. The device has two electrical outlets on the top, which is nice because you gain an extra outlet to plug something else in and you get four USB ports. The max. rated power for the sockets are 2500 watts and the USB ports deliver 5Volts at 5 amps each. To test this device I plugged in a fan, lamp(with a 100 watt incandescent bulb), Lumia 640, Lumia 520, Nexus 7 and a iPod Touch 5. I kept everything plugged in and running for 4 hours, at times I checked my e-mail and even played a game and the Blutle USB Smart Charging Socket never gave me a problem, it did not even get warm.
The device is housed in plastic and feels sturdy in the hand, I dropped it from 3 feet onto a hard wood floor and nothing happened, no cracks not even a ding. YOu will notice that there is two switches on the device. Both are power switches, you can turn on the power to just the USB ports or the sockets or have them both powered up, I like that feature a lot, to me that is a nice safety feature to have not to mention a power saver as well. The cord is detachable, which I like, because if the cord gets damaged you can buy another cord. I should mention that the cord is your typical computer power cord, you can buy them on Ebay, Amazon, Best Buy etc. Cord length is about 72 inches or 6 feet and 18 awg pretty typical power cord, if the length is too short you can get a longer one online for a low price.
The Blutle USB Smart Charging Socket does have lightning and surge protection, 3500 joules max, which is more than enough to protect your devices that are plugged into it. There is a smart chip built into the USB section to identify your devices power requirements so you do not have to worry about it damaging your devices. To let you know power is going to the USB ports there is a small green light(see picture) right in the middle of the ports, it is small but it is there. I have the Blutle USB Smart Charging Socket on my desk next to my computer and it serves me quite well, I can plug in any device without any hassle. The only negative I can say is the light for the USB ports is a bit small, I would have liked to have a bigger light other than that I have no complaints, I really like this device!!
