Pros & Cons

Pros

Light is quite nice and reassuring. Great to have a prominent indicator to reassure me that the thing is working. Only complaint is the lack of a 90° plug.

Each plug has a slider to cover when it is not used. Some outlets are spaced for the bigger plug things. There's enough room to fit the big adaptors.

First impression is everything. It is a relief that this works well. It definitely lives up to my expectations from reviews and research.

Thick power cord handles high amperage no sweat. I like the spacing of the outlets and the cord seems to be just long enough without being too long. I wish the power chord were longer and that the strip wouldn't topple over.

The p12u2 surge protector has a high joules rating, with a decent clamping voltage. There are two parameters that define the worthiness of an electrical surge protector:1. Clamping the lower, the better.



Cons

I suspect nobody has read through that gem and realized that this manufacturer has basically disavowed any ability to recoup costs if the product fails. Have minimal plugged in to it. I cannot at all recommend buying this at its price given its protec...  Read More

    I really thought id already written a review on these but apparently according to my product review list i still need to review this purchase


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have mostly now the surgearrest 12s and 11s with a couple 8s and 7s in the mix


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    As stated by apc support from back when i called them for warranty support on a upc battery that went bad prematurely the apc surge strips can and often do mask the overall load on an apc battery backup unit


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Instead just use plain power extension strips no surge protection in conjunction with apc battery backup units


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Otherwise you can utilize apc surgearrest strips anywhere you want to protect sensitive electronics

    Not a fan of the cord plug in
