Charging up one phone in the car is easy, but what happens when you’ve got a whole family or group of friends with you? Fighting over charging cables or for the car adapter can be a literal tangled mess if everyone’s low on battery. Fortunately, there’s a simple solution to the problem.

Amazon is selling a plug-in car charger that allows for four devices to be powered up at once. The charger slots into your car’s cigarette lighter and includes two built-in charging cables that can extend up to 2.6 feet — more than enough to reach the backseat. The best part: this 4-in-1 charger is on sale right now for just $20.

The compact design tucks away under your car control panel, and its rotating design helps it fit either vertically or horizontally (though at just 2.1 x 2.4 inches in sizes, it really can fit anywhere). Rather than having loose cables dangling around the car — or dangerously close to the pedals — however, you can keep them safely tucked into the charger when not in use. When you need to power up, simply pull the extendable cord out and plug in.

LISEN says a quick 30-minute charge can get you up to 90% battery life; in our experience, we’ve gotten closer to 70% charge. Still, this is a super convenient and dare we say necessary car accessory, especially if you’re constantly on the go, or prone to getting stuck in traffic.

We also love giving this as a gift to friends, and it makes a great stocking stuffer. Don’t just take our word for it though: this retractable car charger boasts a 4.5-star rating (out of five) from hundreds of verified reviewers online. Amazon says more than 10,000 people have bought the LISEN charger in the last month alone.
