Accessory maker Genki has pushed the boundaries of what a power strip can become with their latest creation, the Moonbase. This product is not just a charging station; it aspires to be your ‘futuristic command center,’ combining both visual appeal and functionality.

This device boasts:

  • 3 spacious AC “nodes” for multiple laptops, gaming handhelds, tablets, phones, and more.
  • A 240W GaN USB-C charger with 4 dedicated USB-C ports capable of ultra-fast charging.
  • A sleek, futuristic design inspired by a lunar base concept.

Moonbase includes early bird pricing starting at $88 (£69), and users can also opt for colour-changing capabilities. Additionally, the company has introduced new special USB-C cables with LED screens built-in, a feature they’re particularly excited about.

Genki commented on the significance of these cables: “We don’t typically redesign our USB-C cables for new projects, but Moonbase is a special case… Most USB-C cables max out at 60W charging (including our past cables, except those paired with the TurboCharger).”


What do you think? Is it worth the investment for your setup?

    Sleak aesthetics until you plug something into it. USB cables with screens you can’t see when more than one is plugged in. Very expensive.
