Power Strip Cubical C1 – 3 Sockets with 65 W USB-C | Cords

CORDS · Viktor LundbergThe cube that replaces your power strip, your laptop charger and the tangle under the desk in one go.Cubical C1 is a power strip you do not have to hide. Three Schuko sockets and two USB-C ports sharing 65 watts sit inside an 8.1 cm cube that mounts magnetically under a desk, on a wall or on a fridge door. It comes in five colours: two that disappear, one in between and two meant to be seen.3 Schuko sockets · 2× USB-C at 65 W · Magnetic base · 1.8 m braided cable · Child-safe shutters · 50 % recycled · 5 coloursOne device fewer on your deskMost desks share the same problem: a power strip you would rather not look at, and a laptop charger lying next to it anyway. Cubical C1 handles both. The two USB-C ports deliver Power Delivery 3.1 at up to 65 watts, enough for most notebooks, tablets and phones. The original charger stays in the drawer.Four neodymium magnets sit in the base. On metal the cube attaches directly; for every other surface a metal plate is included that fixes under a desktop or on a wall. After that the cable no longer sags and the floor stays clear.What buyers point outThe C1 has collected 25 reviews on the manufacturer site so far, 24 of them five stars. Three things come up again and again: build quality, USB-C charging speed, and the magnetic base, which several buyers use not under the desk but on the side of it or on a fridge. Colour choice gets mentioned surprisingly often, Electric Orange in particular.One recurring wish: a longer cable. At 1.8 metres it is generous for a desk position and tight for an armchair in the middle of a room. If you sit away from the wall socket, plan for an extension.Five colours, one housingThe C1 comes in Jet Black, Sand, Pale Pink, Electric Orange and Mist White. Jet Black and Mist White are the ones that hold back; under a desktop or beside dark timber you barely notice them. Sand sits in between and works with pale oak.Pale Pink and Electric Orange are made to be seen. Electric Orange is the version reviewers single out most often, and the only one people deliberately put on the desk rather than under it.Safety and buildAll three sockets have shutters, so small fingers cannot reach the contacts. The unit is rated for 250 V, 16 A and a maximum load of 3680 watts, and the USB ports are protected against overvoltage, overcurrent, overheating and short circuits. Tested to CE, TÜV, RoHS and REACH.The housing is polycarbonate with 50 per cent recycled content. Idle consumption stays below 150 milliwatts, so you can leave it plugged in permanently without it showing on your bill.Product details Product nameCubical C1 TypePower strip with USB-C charging ColoursJet Black · Sand · Pale Pink · Electric Orange · Mist White Sockets3× Schuko (CEE 7/3, Type F) USB2× USB-C, max. 65 W (Power Delivery 3.1) Electrical rating250 V, 50/60 Hz, 16 A, max. 3680 W Cable1.8 m, braided Dimensions8.1 × 8.1 × 8.0 cm Weight504 g MaterialPolycarbonate, 50 % recycled Mounting4 neodymium magnets, metal plate included ProtectionIP20, class 1, socket shutters CertificationCE · TÜV · RoHS · REACH DesignerViktor Lundberg OriginDesigned in Stockholm · Assembled in China Frequently asked questionsHow many devices can I connect at once?Five. Three Schuko plugs and two USB-C cables. Total load across the sockets must stay below 3680 watts, which comfortably covers a monitor, a computer and a desk lamp together.How fast is the USB-C charging really?Using one port alone gives you up to 65 watts under Power Delivery 3.1. With both ports in use the output splits into 45 watts and 20 watts. That is well above most power strips with USB, which often stop at 18 watts.Can I charge my laptop from it?If your notebook charges over USB-C and draws 65 watts or less, yes. That covers most 13- and 14-inch machines. For large workstations with 90 or 140 watt supplies, stay on the Schuko socket.Is the magnet strong enough to hang it under a desk?Yes. Four neodymium magnets in the base carry the C1 with cables plugged in. On metal it attaches directly; for wood or glass you fit the included metal plate and the cube holds onto that.Is it safe with small children in the house?All three sockets have built-in shutters that only open when both contacts are pressed at the same time. The C1 is tested to CE and TÜV. Mounted under a desktop it is also out of reach.How long is the cable?1.8 metres, braided. The braid stops the cable twisting and looks noticeably better than smooth PVC. For positions further from the wall socket you will want an extension.Does it draw power when nothing is connected?Less than 150 milliwatts at idle. Over a year that comes to roughly 1.3 kilowatt hours, a few cents. You can leave it plugged in permanently.What is the housing made of?Polycarbonate with 50 per cent recycled content. The surface is matte and barely picks up fingerprints. The design is registered as an EU design right.Does the Cubical C1 come in other colours?Yes, five: Jet Black, Sand, Pale Pink, Electric Orange and Mist White. Jet Black and Mist White recede into the background most easily; Electric Orange is the one buyers mention by name most often in reviews.Can I order the Cubical C1 as a corporate gift?Click “Corporate Gifts” in the top menu — all details on quantities, terms and personal advice are there.One cube instead of a strip plus a charger. Cubical C1 in five colours – for people who take their desk seriously.CORDS · Viktor LundbergAn 8.1 cm cube that treats power supply as a piece of furniture.Cords designs in Stockholm, working from the idea that electricity belongs to an interior rather than apart from it. Cubical C1 fits three Schuko sockets and two 65-watt USB-C ports into a compact cubic form with a magnetic base. Matte, crisply edged, with no markings on the visible faces.Polycarbonate, 50 % recycled · 8.1 cm edge · Magnetic mounting · 1.8 m braided cable · 3 Schuko + 2× USB-C · Designed in StockholmForm and materialThe cube measures 81.4 millimetres in width and depth and 79.6 in height. That small deviation from a perfect cube is structural and not perceptible in a room. The housing is polycarbonate, half of it recycled, with a matte surface and no gloss component.The mains cable is braided and colour-matched to the housing. It lies flat, does not twist, and is the detail that separates a technical accessory from a furnishing object.Placement in a roomFour neodymium magnets in the base allow mounting on any metal surface. For wood, glass or stone a metal plate is included that fixes under desktops, behind sideboards or on a wall. The C1 can therefore be taken entirely out of sight, or placed deliberately in view.Available in five colours. Jet Black works with dark timbers and metal frames, Mist White and Sand stay quiet in bright interiors. Pale Pink and Electric Orange are intended as accents, for places where the unit is allowed to stay visible.Technical specification250 volts, 16 amperes, maximum total load 3680 watts. The two USB-C ports run Power Delivery 3.1 at up to 65 watts on a single port, splitting into 45 and 20 watts when both are used, with protection against overvoltage, overcurrent, overheating and short circuits. All sockets have shutters.IP20, protection class 1, operating range from minus 10 to plus 40 degrees. Certified to CE, TÜV, RoHS and REACH.

The included metal plate fixes under a desktop or behind a sideboard and the cube holds onto it magnetically. Seen from the middle of the room, neither the unit nor the cable exit is visible.How large is the cube in practice?81.4 millimetres along each edge, 79.6 millimetres tall, so slightly smaller than a coffee cup. At 504 grams it carries enough weight not to shift when you plug and unplug.What does the surface feel like?Matte, with no gloss and softly broken edges. Polycarbonate with 50 per cent recycled content. The visible faces carry no printing or rating labels; technical markings sit on the underside.Which colours are available?Five: Jet Black, Sand, Pale Pink, Electric Orange and Mist White. Sand and Mist White stay quiet in bright interiors, Jet Black holds against dark timber and metal, Electric Orange is intended as an accent.What does the braided cable do differently?The braid prevents the twists and kinks that become visible on smooth PVC jackets over time. It is colour-matched to the housing, so it reads calmly even when it runs across open floor.Is the C1 suitable for meeting rooms or practices?For dry interior spaces, yes; the IP20 rating rules out damp areas and outdoor use. The socket shutters and the TÜV certification support use in rooms open to the public.Are larger quantities possible for a project?Get in touch via the contact link in the footer of blickfang-designshop.com.CORDS · Viktor LundbergPower strips have been a missing category in design retail – Cords fills the gap.Cubical C1 is a power cube with three Schuko sockets, two 65-watt USB-C ports and magnetic mounting, designed in Stockholm. Five colours, TÜV certified, with a registered EU design right. A product customers pick up in store and take home, because the benefit explains itself.5 colours · Compact on shelf · TÜV & CE · High repeat purchase · Cross-sell with cables · Self-explanatoryWhy it sellsA power strip is something everyone owns and almost nobody enjoys looking at. That is where the willingness to buy comes from: the customer already has the problem, needs no explanation and decides in seconds. The built-in 65-watt USB-C charger doubles the argument, because it removes a second device.The price sits above hardware-store goods and well below one-off design pieces. That makes the C1 a product customers take without deliberation and typically buy a second time soon after, for a bedroom or a partner's home office.Store types that fitDesign stores, concept stores, home accessory ranges, office outfitters, museum and architecture shops, and electrical specialists with an upmarket range. Wherever customers already accept a premium on everyday objects, Cords works.The customer profile is broader than for most design products: home office users, people who have just moved, people who have just bought a new notebook. The brand needs no run-up; the product benefit carries itself.Placement and rangeAt 8.1 centimetres per edge and 504 grams, the C1 takes little shelf space. A row of all five colours side by side works as a focal point and makes the colour range understandable without signage. We suggest double facings for Jet Black and Mist White as the base colours.Cross-selling works within the brand: the A1 USB-C cables and the E1 extension are colour-matched and frequently bought together. A till-point position for the cables is worth considering.Product details Product nameCubical C1 TypePower strip with USB-C charging ColoursJet Black · Sand · Pale Pink · Electric Orange · Mist White Sockets3× Schuko (CEE 7/3, Type F) USB2× USB-C, max. 65 W (Power Delivery 3.1) Electrical rating250 V, 50/60 Hz, 16 A, max. 3680 W Cable1.8 m, braided Dimensions81.4 × 81.4 × 79.6 mm Weight504 g (887 g packed) MaterialPolycarbonate, 50 % recycled CertificationCE · TÜV · RoHS · REACH DesignerViktor Lundberg OriginDesigned in Stockholm · Assembled in China Frequently asked questionsWhich colours should I list first?Jet Black and Mist White cover broad demand and suit any presentation. Electric Orange is the colour that draws attention on shelf and is praised by name most often in customer reviews. Sand and Pale Pink round out an upmarket interior range.How much shelf space does a sensible display need?Five units side by side take about 45 centimetres of shelf width. That is enough to show the full colour row, which in practice sells better than three separate colours in separate positions.Does the product need advice at the point of sale?Barely. The benefit is visible, and the only feature that needs explaining is the magnetic base. A display unit with the metal plate visible solves that without a sales conversation.Which items in the range sell together?The A1 USB-C cables in one and two metres and the E1 extension are colour-matched to the C1 and work as an add-on sale at the till. Within the extender range, C1 and S1 complement each other because they cover different socket counts.How is the brand positioned?Cords Sweden AB is a young Stockholm company with an in-house design team. The range currently covers six product lines in five coordinated colours. Products are certified to CE, TÜV, RoHS and REACH, and the design is protected as an EU design right.
