You can buy the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P at our store inside Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD. Walk in to test it, or order for countrywide delivery to any of Kenya's 47 counties.
The Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P solves a daily problem for anyone running more devices than wall sockets allow. Home users power a flat-screen TV, decoder, router, and gaming console from one point. Office workers across Westlands, Upper Hill, and Nairobi CBD connect a desktop, monitor, printer, and phone charger without hunting for free outlets. Content creators, salon owners, and small POS-based shops keep lights, screens, and card machines running together. With six built-in USB ports, the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P also clears the desk of loose phone and tablet chargers, charging up to sixteen devices in total when every port and socket is in use.
At Mascom International, we're seeing strong demand for surge-protected extensions as Kenyan buyers move to protect costly electronics from KPLC voltage swings and rainy-season lightning. Unlike basic extension cords sold in Nairobi shops, the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P combines overload cut-off, short-circuit protection, and EMI/RFI filtering in one compact unit. Customers across Nairobi report that the 2-metre cord reaches awkward wall points behind TV units and office desks. Buy the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P at our Kimathi Street store, or order it today for pay-on-arrival delivery and inspect it before you pay a single shilling.
Common Questions About the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P 10-socket power extension
How many devices can the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P power at once?
The Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P powers up to 16 devices at the same time: 10 through the universal AC sockets and six through the USB ports. The 10 AC outlets accept UK 3-pin, EU 2-pin, and other common plug shapes, so you can connect a TV, decoder, router, console, lamp, and chargers from one point. The combined load across all sockets must stay under the 2500W ceiling. For most home and office gear like TVs, laptops, and phone chargers, that ceiling leaves plenty of headroom for daily use.
Is the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P safe for my TV, computer, and gaming console?
Yes. The Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P includes surge and thunder protection that absorbs voltage spikes before they reach connected electronics, which matters during Kenya's frequent lightning storms. It also carries overload protection that cuts power if connected devices draw more than the safe limit, plus short-circuit protection. EMI/RFI filtering reduces electrical noise that can interfere with sensitive gear. A power indicator light shows when the unit is live. Together these features make it suited to TVs, desktops, routers, and PS5 or Xbox consoles.
How fast do the USB ports charge phones and tablets?
The Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P carries six USB ports: five USB-A and one USB-C. The USB-C port supports PD (Power Delivery) up to 30W, while the USB-A ports support QC3.0 (Quick Charge 3.0) fast charging on compatible phones. Total USB output sits around 32W shared across the ports. This means you can fast-charge a Samsung or iPhone on the USB-C port while topping up earbuds, a tablet, and a second phone on the USB-A ports. No separate plug adapters are needed for any USB device.
Will the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P work with Kenyan power and plugs?
Yes. The Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P runs on a 220V to 250V input at 10A, which matches Kenya Power's standard mains supply. The "3P" in the name refers to its 3-pin UK-style wall plug, the standard used across Kenya. Its 10 output sockets are universal, so they accept the UK 3-pin plugs most Kenyan appliances use, as well as 2-pin EU and US-style plugs found on many imported chargers and laptops. This removes the need for travel adapters when you connect mixed-origin electronics at home or in the office.
How long is the cable on the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P?
The Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P comes with a 2-metre power cord, long enough to reach a wall socket from behind a TV cabinet, under a desk, or across a small room. The extra length lets you position the strip where you actually use your devices rather than crowding everything around one wall point. The cord is built for repeated daily handling. For larger rooms or workshops where 2 metres falls short, our team can recommend a longer-cord option from the Mascom International accessory range.
What is the difference between this and a cheap extension cable?
A basic extension cord only splits one wall socket into a few outlets with no protection. The Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P adds three safety layers a cheap cable lacks: surge and thunder protection against lightning spikes, overload protection that trips before wires overheat, and short-circuit protection. It also has six USB ports, which simple cords do not. For Kenyan homes facing voltage swings and storm-season lightning, that protection can be the difference between a tripped strip and a damaged TV or laptop. The price gap pays for the safety hardware inside.
Is the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P worth KSh 3,800 in Kenya's market?
At KSh 3,800, the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P sits in the mid-range for protected extension sockets in Kenya. Cheaper strips at KSh 600 to KSh 1,500 give you outlets but no surge protection or USB ports. This unit packs 10 AC sockets, six USB ports, and four protection systems in one casing. For anyone running a TV setup, home office, gaming corner, or small business counter, replacing a single surge-damaged appliance costs far more than the strip itself. Buyers throughout Kenya tell us the USB ports alone justify the price.
Can I use the Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P in an office or business setup?
Yes. The Lightwave LW-EXT-106U-3P is built for both home and office use. In offices around Nairobi CBD, Westlands, and Upper Hill, it powers desktops, monitors, printers, and IP phones from one protected point. Retail counters and salons use it for POS terminals, card readers, lighting, and display screens. The 2500W ceiling handles typical office electronics, though high-draw equipment like kettles or heaters should not share the strip. The surge protection shields business machines from the power fluctuations that disrupt unprotected setups during outages and reconnections.
