Xiaomi has released a new Frost Snow White color variant of its modular Track Power Socket system in China. The new model retains the same features and pricing as the original Deep Space Grey version. It is available in three lengths: 50cm for 299 yuan ($41), 75cm for 399 yuan ($55), and 100cm for 499 yuan (~$69).

Xiaomi Track Power Socket Specifications

The track socket system supports a total load of up to 8000W. Each individual adapter can handle up to 2500W, making it suitable for running multiple high-power appliances simultaneously, such as microwave ovens, rice cookers, coffee machines, and air fryers. Xiaomi includes three to five adapters depending on the track size, and users can purchase additional adapters separately.

Xiaomi has built the socket with several safety features. It includes a spring-loaded safety door that automatically closes when an adapter is removed, helping prevent children from touching exposed terminals and keeping dust and oil out of the track. The track is made from flame-retardant materials that can withstand temperatures up to 960°C. Additionally, its ultra-narrow 4.4mm slot and T-shaped structure minimize the risk of accidental contact.

The internal wiring includes tightly insulated live and neutral wires, while the ground wire connects through a dedicated groove in the track slot. This setup minimizes the risk of electric shock, even if a foreign object enters the track.

The adapters can be added or removed as needed and feature a separate outer ring that users can rotate to switch power on or off, removing the need to unplug devices. For safety, the adapters remain fixed in place and do not slide freely along the track, but they can be unlocked and repositioned when necessary.

The socket system supports three wiring options: left-end wiring, right-end wiring, and external wiring. However, external power cables are not included in the package.

Xiaomi also offers three types of adapters: a standard 10A socket, a smart 10A socket with power monitoring and app or voice control, and a 33W fast-charging module with USB-A and USB-C ports.

In related news, Xiaomi has introduced a new floor-standing air conditioner with fast cooling and heating, 115° wide-angle airflow, and HyperOS integration. The company has also launched the Xiaomi Laser Projector 3, featuring native 4K resolution, 1000 CVIA lumens brightness, and Dolby Audio support.
