Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons
The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The cord is strong but manageable enough to be routed. It has good length if you need the surge protector a few feet from the outlet. The rotating plug is nice. My workstation/gaming area has a lot of wiring going on, and this really helps.

The build quality is very good. Absolute high quality. It’s well worth the reasonable price. Amazon offers great delivery and value as usual.



Cons

This surge protector is a waste of time. This is a great product to sell, because if it just craps out for no reason, you can say, no!

The packaging was clearly opened and had scruffs all over. Tried calling belkin for their phony warranty on anything plugged into it. It has a warranty but trying to get support is proving to be difficult.

Quality


I was surprised how heavy the surge protector was, but believe it must be because it's a solid, well-built product.

It is truly pointless to offer 12 sockets when you can realistically use about six when they are spaced so tight.


It is big, yes, but i needed that space to accommodate the bulky ac adaptor of a mini pc, deck headset, charging stations, etc.

Price


Good value with the added insurance and belkin name but i really wish the spacing between sockets was much larger.

Competitiveness


I have used belkin products before and they have been good quality so i decided to spend a little more for a known brand.

    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Half the devices today have transformer plugs and almost all wall chargers have a greater footprint so belkins product designers need to think of that as well


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Also it could help greatly if there is flexibility with orientation so that more plugs could be fit in


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Other than the number of outlets and total load the most important specs are clamping voltage how high the surge reaches before the protector intercedes and lower is better and the surge current rating in joules how much energy the protector can handle before it blows


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    This protector dissipates 3940 joules per the specs while most cheaper protectors only handle a few hundred joules and up to 6000 volts


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The item also has some very useful status lights to let you know if the outlet it is plugged into is grounded and whether the protector is still protecting the devices plugged into it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    A brand name that i didnt recognize could advertise any specs they like but i have no way to test and verify whether the advertised specs are real
