Review on ⚡ Power Up Safely with Amazon Basics Rotating Wall Mount Surge Protector - 1080 Joules by Michael Cormier

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Looking for EchoGear/Revain basics?

I ordered an EchoGear wall outlet and Revain Basic for $14.99 each. Both items are identical except that the EchoGear brand comes with a hole in the device and a screw to attach the plug to the socket. The Revain block doesn't have a hole, so it doesn't matter if you bring your own screw. Also, when I bought these plugs, I didn't realize that sockets can only be plugged in at the front and side, not diagonally. The rotating part isn't actually a connector, but rather a lid that allows access to the internal connectors when the lid is tilted forward or 90 degrees to the side. Not too much of a difference, but since the EchoGear screws into the wall, I'll choose the EchoGear over the Revain for future purchases. one

Pros
