We bought something similar to what I think you are looking for when we went on 
a cruise.  One end was USB and plugged into a block which plugged into the 
wall.  The other end has 4 cables of different types such as USB, USBC, etc. 
for plugging into different devices.  It did work very well for charging 
multiple devices.  Unfortunately I can’t find the exact link to it, but there 
are probably several like this.

 

You might search for something like multi USB charging cable.  I can’t remember 
for sure if we got it from Amazon or the Harbolt Company 
(sa...@harboltcompany.com <mailto:sa...@harboltcompany.com> ).

I have a couple of Anker chargers that have 6 USB connectors and deliver a 
total of 60 watts.  They also have models that have some USB-c ports as well.

 

Each port shuts down when the current drops below about 50 ma to keep from over 
charging .  In several years a port or two has stopped working.  Just unplug 
all cables, wait a few seconds, and it is ready to work again as new.

Subject: charging device - does this exist?

 

Hi,

I typically charge my iPhones, battery packs,  and such with a single cable 
plugged into a block plugged into the extension cord or directly into the 
outlet.  What I’d ideally  like is a sort of USB extension  cord where I can 
plug one end into a hard to reach outlet, then have a hub of USB ports where I 
can plug in several devices, rather than managing a number of those bulky 
blocks and an extension cord.   Does this kind of thing exist and what would it 
be called for an Amazon or Walmart search?  Any considerations to keep in mind 
as I’m selecting one?  I feared that if I searched for “USB hub”, I’d end up 
with the kind that is used to plug a bunch of peripherals into a computer and I 
don’t think that is the right thing. I need the hub to plug into AC power to 
charge my devices.

  

TIA,

Robin
