How I Keep My House In Order

Order #AnkerGaNPrime on Amazon:

We’ve been so busy cramming tech into every corner of the smart house that we never stopped to consider how much of a mess all the cables and chargers would make - so Anker stepped up to sponsor this video where we tackle cable management once and for all!

Linus got a whole monoply of things he can advertise rn it's insane

[michaelmayhem]

My favorite part about cable managing everything is when you want to rearrange stuff or upgrade equipment.

[Yousitech]

For the car charger you want a retractable wire that locks like a projector screen so it's not constantly pulling on the cable at that weird angle

[TheMidnightillusion]

Can we just take a moment to appreciate all the amazing things that are in development at LTT engineering. It really shows what happens when a bunch of PC users have the time and money to sit down and design quality products that actually solve problems. It's genuinely so exciting and I can't wait to see what comes out of the lab in the future.

[gigakoresh]

These magnetic cable management tools are amazing! Love to see innovative products from LTT, and I really need these for my messy desk. Hopefully they won't take another 3 years to become available...

[tytyterrell]

Not gonna lie. I really appreciate Linus letting his engineers refine stuff to the point of over engineering stuff. Makes things better

[JordonBeal]

Dude, that magnetic cable management system would be a game-changer for recording studios. Expect and order the moment they're released. I can already imagine half a dozen "off-label" uses for them around a studio.

[urmomsahoe]

The magnetic cable management/mounting methods is a really GOOD idea. Like I hope you got a patent for it good. Maybe someone has already made it but if they haven't you have a good product. Even just for mounting other things to stuff not just wires it would be really cool to use. If you market these things right I think you could do really well.

[isocuda]

The most insane thing is how obvious it is that Linus has never used 3M strips. Which he admitted in an earlier video.

[lightjack]

Pro tip: Most hot glues can be removed from most surfaces (wood, plastic, metal) using Isopropyl-alcohol. Just make sure you put it around the edges and wait a couple minutes.
(If you can, it works even better if you can inject something between the hot-glue and the surface, e.g. by using a syringe)

[herrwarmduscher]

3:36 There's an easy way to line up the screws. Photocopy the back of the power strip and use that as a guide.

[blakjaknz]

Fibre cable fragility: not linearly. They're very strong when tugged on in a straight line - stronger than cat6. Just don't bend them sharply or impact them too hard from the side. But they're well sheathed.

[youngaspireify]

Fun Fact: Linus has a dedicated 100 acre lithium strip mine in Bolivia to power all the fun toys in his house.

[soul-candy-music]

lmao it would've been so dope to be a rich kid. can't forget about the go karts, electronic squirt guns, massive home theater, and supercharged smart home.

[nomisukeindustries]

So glad you guys have Anker as a sponsor now. I've loved their stuff for the past 10 years. I won't buy anything else for charging. I even have several Anker Bluetooth speakers.

[huh]

Cable management at my house is just closing your eyes

[reikoshea]

Wow…I didn’t really have a need for a solid backpack or screwdriver, so I haven’t been TOO hype about an LTTStore product, but I want those magnets NOW. Correction, I NEED THEM.

[cheetoritos]

Love the new Anker GaN Prime stuff! It's a bit pricey, but the fact that pretty much all of them replace multiple things either at home or while travelling makes them well worth it in my mind.

[InternetXplorer]

With so much active current pulsing through Linus' house, I can imagine it sounding like the hum/drone from ST:TNG or DS9 etc :)

[termiterasin]

How to line up screws for a power strip: run blue painters tape along the back, and use a pencil to fill in the holes where the screw go. Remove and apply to whever you are mounting, screw where your marks are. PERFECT mounting. add an extra screw on the side so it can't be bumped off
