00:00Top 5 Cable Management Clips for Clean Desks
00:03So here's the thing, my desk looked like a wiring diagram for a submarine, and I finally did something about
00:09it.
00:09I went through thousands of these cable clips and narrowed it down to the 5 that actually earned their spot.
00:15Prices are low, differences are not obvious, so stick around for number 3, it changed how I route everything.
00:22Let's start with the one everybody buys.
00:25First up is this adhesive hook clip, and it's the one already sitting on 4,827 desks.
00:32$3.31
00:34The hook is the genius part, you slide a cable into the slot, then use the hook for the loop
00:38that would otherwise slide onto the floor.
00:41Sticks to wood, metal, plastic, side of a monitor, inside a car.
00:46Rubber back means it peels off without leaving a mark, and at under 4 bucks it's the cheapest fix on
00:51this list if you only need a couple.
00:54Buy a handful, not one.
00:56Second is this self-adhesive wire holder, 358, about as popular as the first.
01:02Where it separates from the pack is the fixed clamp, it grips the cable so hard it doesn't slip out
01:07when you yank your mouse or pull your headphones off.
01:10No adhesive on the cable itself, so nothing gummy left behind on your USB-C, use the big one for
01:15a thick power brick lead, the small one for earbuds.
01:19Nearly 50 people a day are grabbing it, so it's not some fad.
01:23It's a $3 problem solved.
01:26Third is the Tuki, and this is my favorite.
01:29It comes in 3, 5, and 7 hole versions, count the cables crossing your desk, pick the size, wind them
01:35in together, and they all travel as one.
01:383.34, and it holds the highest rating of anything I tested.
01:42The holes are sized for real wire, so a braided cable doesn't crush or kink.
01:47One clip replaces an entire zip tie situation.
01:51If your problem is too many cables, not loose cables, this is the one.
01:56Fourth is the magnetic clip, 6 of them for 4.10.
02:00Magnets inside the body hold the cable in, and there's zero adhesive on the wire, you just press and it
02:05stays put.
02:06That means you can move the whole setup to a different desk and take everything with you, which the sticky
02:11ones don't let you do.
02:13Use them under a desk edge or on a metal monitor arm where the magnet actually grips.
02:18Slightly pricier, but 6 pieces, and they work on surfaces adhesive hates.
02:23That's my 5.
02:25Every link is in the description, cheapest first, prices as they are right now.
