Not only does the angle of the adapter help you out, but with an extra full foot of cord, you’ll be set to power devices such as your computer, phone, scanner, printer, Xbox, Playstation, and more.

Stop bending your cables into angles they don’t want to be in and start extending the life of your cables.
