The basic surge protector is an excellent choice for anyone who wants to protect their electronic devices from power surges and other electrical disturbances. Despite its simplicity and affordability, this surge protector provides a good level of prot...  Read More

Cord is heavy and thick and probably 12-15' long, with a flat plug on it so it easlily plugs in behind furniture. The cord is only 3ft long but for me i did not want a lot of cord since it was mounted near the benchtop.

The power strip is a black matte color, which i find attractive. The black color look stylish and elegant. There's a symbol next to it that is unfamiliar to me.

The power strip can charge both a usb-corded device or an ac plug. This is a nice feature because you can have all your computer items plugged into the strip and still have 4 additional ports for charging other items like cell phones.

Price


And the price point is just right – it feels like a solid investment without breaking the bank.


All things considered, this is a really excellent device at only a bit more expense than the standard power strips.


The current price of ~$26 is reasonable.


Price is reasonable particularly since it has surge protection.

Packaging/appearance


The foam sleeve it was wrapped in had this warning label regarding use.


I included a couple of pictures of the packaging it came in.


First thing i noticed when i opened the box was the weight.
