Know before you buy
Yes, the kit includes 3D-printed T-nuts and M4 bolts designed to slide directly into standard 80/20 aluminum extrusion slots, making it compatible with most sim racing rigs.
No, this power strip is intended for low-draw accessories like cooling fans, phone chargers, or headsets. It is rated for 120V/12A and should not be used to power sensitive, high-wattage equipment like your PC or wheel base.
The USB ports on this kit are designed specifically for charging devices like phones or headphones. They do not support data transfer for peripherals or PC connectivity.
The unit features a 9.8-foot power cord equipped with a standard USA plug. Please ensure your local power outlets are compatible with this plug type before purchasing.
The included 3D-printed mounts are fixed to the power strip, but because they utilize T-nuts, you can slide the entire assembly anywhere along your rig's extrusion channel to find the perfect placement.
