Cables. Cables everywhere! If you’re like me you have your fair share of gadgets, and they all require different cables for charging. Keeping them all organized and untangled is something users of any OS have to deal with. A lot of products have tried to address this problem in a variety of ways. Kickstarter has been a haven for people to share their ideas for cable management. The Magnetic Organization System (MOS) is one of the better ideas to get funded.
As you may have guessed from the name, MOS uses magnets to corral your cables. It does this with rubber clips that attach to the ends of your cables. These clips have little magnets in them than attach to the metal base and keep the cables where you want them. Another advantage to the clips is that they come in three different colors. This makes it easy to know which cable goes to which device.
You can use the MOS on a table, or on the wall. The base has a micro-suction bottom that makes it stick to whatever surface you have it on. This is important so that the weight of the cables doesn’t pull it down. For using the MOS on the wall it has an adhesive sticker. The micro-suction works really well. It stays put when in place, but is still easy to pick up and move.
One thing I like about MOS is that it’s easy to use the devices while they are charging. The rubber clips are small and lightweight, so you can just grab the cable and plug it in and keep using the device. When you unplug the cable you can just plop it back on the base and it sticks. There is no bothersome clips or grips that you have to deal with. It’s a really nice system that seems obvious once you use it. One of those “why didn’t I think of this?” ideas.
MOS has been fully funded on Kickstarter, but it is already available at retailers like Amazon. If cable management is something you need the MOS is a great option.
