Like this:

Belkin Mini Surge Protector with USB Charger

Staples 3-Outlet 918 Joule Surge Protector with USB Charging Ports

Woods® 6-Outlet Surge Protector with USB Charging Ports

What's funny to me is the automotive "tailgater" power converter that I bought last week. It is designed to provide 400 W of power for tailgate parties. So, why does it have 2 USB charging ports? I guess so people can rest their charging cell phones next to the fondue.

Thanks for that. Now I just told myself my spending would be on hold for a while.

Guess I was wrong.
