Today, we don't just use standard outlets to plug in our electronics for the precious energy they need so badly. No, a good chunk of our gadgets, especially of the portable variety, charge via USB. And that's all well and good when you're sitting at your computer, but what about when you're not?

This clever U-Socket USB wall charger sticks a couple of USB ports into a standard wall outlet, giving you some extra options when it comes to delivering the juice to your gizmos. No more adapters or opening up your laptop when it comes to charging your phone — just plug that USB cable right on into the wall. How convenient!
