The tangled mess of cables behind your desk, standby devices quietly inflating your electricity bill, the constant hunt for a free socket... It's an all-too-familiar scenario. A power strip with individual switches is the simplest and most effective solution to reclaim your space, control your energy consumption, and protect your equipment.
This guide is here to help you choose the model that truly fits your needs, cutting through the marketing noise. We've also selected several models that tick all the boxes: functionality, safety, and versatility.
The number of outlets isn't everything. To make the right choice, here are the key criteria to consider.
While its primary function is to distribute power, its ability to protect your devices is just as crucial. A surge protector power strip includes protection against power surges. These voltage spikes, often imperceptible, can literally fry the sensitive electronic components in your computers, TVs, or gaming consoles. For homes with young children, the presence of safety shutters (child-safe power strip) isn't an option—it's a necessity to prevent household accidents.
The layout of your space will dictate the ideal type of power strip.
The key advantage of a switched power strip is the control it gives you. Each individual switch allows you to completely cut power to an unused device. This puts an end to the "phantom load" from devices on standby, which adds up on your annual electricity bill. The master switch, meanwhile, lets you turn everything off with a single press.
We've selected a few models that stand out for their versatility and features, designed for different uses.
Its strong point: Its main strength lies in its 5-metre cable, which offers remarkable installation freedom. It's the ideal solution when the wall socket is poorly placed or too far from your equipment.
Key features:
Who is it for? Perfect for large living rooms, offices where wall sockets are scarce, or for complex home cinema setups that require extra length.
Its strong point: This model is a true Swiss Army knife: it combines a long cable, comprehensive safety, individual switches, and USB charging ports. A genuine all-in-one power station.
Key features:
Who is it for? For demanding users, tech enthusiasts, and professionals who want to connect their entire computer setup and charge their mobile devices from a single unit.
Its strong point: The perfect balance of features and a practical format. Its 3-metre cable is ideal for a desk or bedside table, with the added convenience of USB ports.
Key features:
Who is it for? The smart choice for equipping a desk, a nightstand, or a TV corner where the socket isn't too far away. A versatile and well-balanced model for everyday use.
Our selection highlights highly versatile models, but perhaps you have specific needs? More outlets, a particular design, other features... Feel free to browse our complete catalogue.

The benefit is twofold: saving energy and gaining convenience. You can cut power to devices that consume energy in standby mode (like your internet router at night or chargers left plugged in) without having to physically unplug them. As a bonus, this can even extend the life of your equipment by completely isolating it from the electrical grid.
For valuable electronic devices (computers, 4K TVs, gaming consoles, audio systems), it's more than recommended—it's an insurance policy. A power surge, even a brief one caused by a grid fluctuation or a thunderstorm, can irreversibly damage their electronic circuits. The surge protector acts as a shield: it absorbs this current spike to protect everything plugged into it.
