Snap Power USB Charger
You know a product is a great idea when a couple of pictures describe the entire product. With that in mind, we’ve all seen wall outlet USB charges, but the Snap Power, in my opinion, will rule them all. The design is clever. Installation is ultra-easy. Accessibility supersedes all others. Take a second and just look at it:
In my mind there are three things which make this a brilliant wall charger. If you don’t mind me walking you through the obvious, here we go.
Or skip the highlights and jump right over to their website:
The design is brilliant. The User keeps both outlets available for normal use while a sleek looking USB port is added underneath. At the time of this article there is one USB socket, but visiting their website you can see two sockets, one on either side. They are constantly improving.
Installation is very easy. Simply unscrew your current face-plate and replace it with
the Snap Power face-plate. You can see from the picture below the screws used on the outlet behind the face-plate is what provides the juice for the Snap Power USB port. They have a patent on this, so it’s definitely a fresh idea.
I think the final point on why this USB charger is the end-all, be-all is the slim design. Take a look at this image below. I know, for certain, we have all been in this situation before. The bulky square charger from Apple requires too much room when trying to tuck the charger into a socket behind your dresser.
If you think about it, with all the design geeks at Apple, you would have thought they had a better solution from the get-go.
From the SnapPower.com website it appears a single USB face-plate is $16 and the two port version is $19. They also have some very nice looking LED face-plates which are probably worth ordering as well.
They ship global… and no this isn’t a sponsored post. Just sharing the information for those willing to read it.
