The New Extension Cord From NuPlug

The biggest problem with mobile devices is battery life. And until that gets resolved, you are always going to need some place to plug into for charging. When at home, you look for the wall outlet which is rarely convenient. So, you use an extension cord, but that does not have any surge protection. So you use a power strip with surge protection, but that still makes you crawl around to plug your mobile devices into it. In today's world, having an extension cord that includes surge protection is the best combination for all the things we have to plug in. Most of these are power strips with a lot of plugs, but not the functionality that we are looking for. We have found the NuPlug which looks like it is going to be the one extension cord that will handle my needs for charging up my mobile devices.

The NuPlug surge protector has just completed a round of funding which will allow them to move towards production. So, what is this coming product going to provide. It comes with a 10 foot cord which you plug into a power outlet. As you can see on the face of it, there are two power outlets visible and there are 2 USB connections on the NuPlug. That provides you with the ability to charge up multiple items from a convenient location.

That convenient location is going to be far batter than what you are used to. The beauty of the NuPlug is in its versatility for placement. It is made of plastic in the casing and with the clamping ability, you can easily attach it to furniture so that the plugs are in easy reach. The attaching process is like clamp that you squeeze together to hold it on something. It has an maximum opening on the clamp of about 1.6 inches giving you enough of a width for clamping on the NuPlug onto a table or other location.

The company web site is up at NuPlug.com, but there is no way to order the coming product. For those individuals who helped in funding, the NuPlug should be shipping in October. Based on that, we can assume it will hit the market in November. While we hope that the company will place the ability to pre-order the NuPlug, we expect to see pricing to be in the $30 to $40 range when it is released. Watch for the NuPlug in the fall as it is going to be a great gift in the holiday season.
