With all the gadgets, USB drives, dual monitors, a few computers and the associated items like firewalls and routers, the power cords can really pile up. Under my desk, it is a maze of wires piled up on the floor in one huge jumbled mess. When I have to trace a cable, it is a slow and troubling process. Every few years, I pull all the cables out and try and lay things out in an organized manner so that I do not have to go through this. But, when you get a new toy which requires power, you do not think about that as you want to use that new piece of technology.Enter the Plug Hub from Quirky which is an item that will help to clean up all the cords under my desk. This charcoal colored plastic box has three holes in the top to run power cords through. And you can stand it up on the rubber bottom, lay it on its side or even mount it under your desk. And with the swing open cover, it is easy to add or remove power cords to the organizer. All as part of your efforts to get things cleaned up.
You supply the power strip of your choosing to the Plug Hub, run the power cords through the top and wrap the excess on the brackets and you are good to go. This measures out at 3.5 by 10.5 by 9.5 inches and is basically just a bit longer than a standard power strip. A great size to handle the mess of power cords. Have a flat screen TV along with all the associated DVR and sound system power needs? The Plug Hub can help hide all those power cords for you.
While the Plug Hub is not going to deal with some of the really large brick plugs, it will provide you with a fantastic way to keep things organized under your desk. Removing that pile of power cords is a great start to clean up the mess under your desk. You can get the Plug Hub for $24.99 from their site.
