Review on πŸ’‘ Philips 10-Outlet Surge Protector Power Strip with USB Ports, 6 Ft Extension Cord, 2880 Joules Protection, 2.4 AMP/12 Watt, 6 Adapter Spaced Outlets, Flat Plug, Wall Mount, ETL Listed – Black by Jason Peterson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Meh, everything is fine. Philips is a good brand, good price.

I needed this because most overvoltage taps don't have enough space for 3-5 transformers and I always have to connect more. (Note to Revain industrial designers: make the warts on the wall smaller, or at the end of a regular string.) The only downside to this is that it can be saved and crafted. If the device flies out of the brown and saves your hardware, it's a dead dog. Not reset. I have a couple of identical 1990's Kensingtons and this has only happened to one of them (living on a crappy electric utility in Connecticut is the worst thing in the US!) but the Kensington will send you a new one! (Well, it did a few years ago.) The old Kensington still works, too, but ONLY as an extension cord. There is no protection. Which is great for a basement desk for non-electronic things. I also went with this because it's Philips, I have two other old strips from them and they worked well and this is a design that would look nice under a table in the living room. No ugly black overloaded junk, but plain, white, flat.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Good for the most part, but...
