So im currently at a lan, and i cant charge my headset. When I do try yo plug it in, i get a notification saying that there is a "power surge" and it stops my mouse from working. Obviously im not getting enough power, but im only one of a few people experiencing this?

Wait, is the notification about the computer or the headset? Does it disable all power going to all usb devices?

assuming that you are using a desktop, it may be the USB ports on your computer. If you have a USB 3.0 port try using that. If not, just use a USB wall charger because your ports may not be supplying enough power. If possible, maybe changing the wiring of case may help out, or just getting a new case in general although I doubt you would want to do that. Or maybe if you really want to connect it to your computer, just but a usb hub that has a power supply that can connect to a computer.
