Organize TV Cabinet: Docking Station Tips

If you're looking to tidy up your TV cabinet cluttered with a mishmash of devices like your TV set-top box, switch, and WiFi router, all converging with their respective power cords, consider crafting a docking station with timer and USB power outlets. It might just do the trick.

As illustrated, the issue lies in the perpendicular arrangement of the plugs for the two power sources and the receptacles on the power strip, obstructing the power switches and two USB ports.

Start by prepping a length of PVC cable trunking to construct the housing; it offers ample strength. Then, purchase some sockets to install.

Next, incorporate a timer.

Add a USB power source as well.

Connect the wires.

Make use of an unused kettle base and its wiring.

Include a spare three-prong socket.

The four sockets on the back are controlled by the timer.

The USB power board is controlled by this switch.

Now, all three power sources are neatly arranged.

Your desktop is clutter-free, and your Huawei devices are powered up.
