This PRO ELEC Mains Extension Reel is designed for professionals and DIY enthusiasts needing a reliable power solution for demanding tasks. Its key benefit is providing ample reach with integrated USB charging, offering convenience for workshops, garages, and job sites. A potential consideration is the cable length, which might be excessive for very confined spaces.

The product description does not specify the exact amperage for the USB ports, but they are designed for general charging of mobile devices like smartphones and tablets. For optimal charging speeds, always refer to your device's original charger specifications.
While the reel is designed for heavy-duty use, it is not rated as waterproof or weatherproof. It is best used in dry outdoor conditions or protected areas like garages and workshops, and should be stored indoors after use.
It is recommended to store the extension reel in a dry location. Ensure the cable is neatly wound onto the reel to prevent damage and tangling. Avoid storing in damp or wet conditions.
The extension reel is rated at 13A, meaning the total power draw from both 2-gang sockets combined should not exceed this limit (approximately 3000W at 230V).
Yes, the cable is wound onto a reel which allows for easy extension and retraction, keeping the cable tidy and reducing clutter.
The product description does not mention surge protection features. It is a standard extension lead reel providing power distribution.
Check that the main plug is securely inserted into a working power outlet. Ensure the circuit breaker or fuse for the outlet has not tripped. Verify that the total power draw of connected devices does not exceed the reel's 13A rating.
Try using a different USB cable. Test the USB ports with a different device to rule out an issue with the device itself. Ensure the reel is powered from a working mains socket.
Ensure the cable is not caught on anything. Check for any kinks or damage in the cable. If debris is present, carefully clean the cable and reel mechanism. Do not force the reel if it is jammed.
Ensure the cable is fully unwound before connecting high-power devices. Reduce the number of devices connected or the power draw of existing devices. Unplug and allow the reel to cool down if it feels excessively hot.
