Review on πŸ”Œ Belkin Power Strip Surge Protector - 12 AC Outlets, Ethernet & Cable Protection - 8 ft Extension Cord - White - 4000 Joules by Keith Aluguvelli

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Invest in a good surge protector like this - little value for very good protection for the money

MARCH 2017: I usually only review 5 star and 1 star items. In that case, give this surge protector 5 stars. For more than 30 years I have lived in several states in the southern United States - Florida, Georgia and Texas - and thunderstorms in this part of the country are the strongest. I mean cruelty! The house rattles. Extreme. And sometimes with hail on the same. We also had power outages. Around 2007, one of our houses was struck by lightning; He knocked out the exterior headlights, burned a hole in the roof and lost some electrical equipment BUT WE DID NOT LOST ANY EQUIPMENT connected to the surge protector. It burned all the surge suppression filters we had - I think 5 of them. And depending on your home's or apartment's insurance company, you might be able to get compensation for it if you're ever hit. I bought 3 of these in a few months. I preferred the ETHERNET protected model to the USB version. If you need additional USB ports to charge your devices, buy one of the multi-port boxes (available on AMAZON) which are about 3" x 3" and have AC power on one end and 4 or more USB ports. Connect this to your surge protector. The features of this BELKING POWER STRIP include: - a power button with green power LED - surge protection for your DVR, Cable or satellite receiver (if receiving a signal over coaxial cable) - includes EMI/RFI filtering to remove these "interference" "signals, which can cause a "hum" or "hum" in the sound of your TV or surround cause sound systems. - Surge protection for your cable modem or router when it receives a signal from an Ethernet cable - 12 outlets and surge protection for each; 6 of these are on the outer edge, so it should house power transformers (black boxes with AC plug) for some devices like printer, TV soundbar, cable modem, etc. AC power. Purchase quad shield RG6 coaxial cable (this is the amount of signal isolation around the inner cable) from AMAZON. Choose a length, e.g. B. 4 feet or so. Your coaxial cable from the wall goes into the "COAX IN" surge protector. Then run this new RG6 cable from the surge protector "COAX OUT" to your DVR/cable/satellite box. Purchase (from AMAZON) an Ethernet connection cable. As with the coax cable, route the existing cable from the wall to the "IN" surge protector. Then use a jumper cable to run from the surge protector "OUT" to your cable modem or router. Most include "insurance" against damage when you buy a surge protector for the devices you plug into the surge protector. Keep receipts for all purchases. I personally prefer to buy a good surge protector, than relying on claims for a blown 60-inch TV or expensive audio equipment and expecting to get paid without much hassle. Is the device being discounted – for example, a $2,000 TV from two years ago that sells for $600 today? how much would you get Do they only pay you what your insurance doesn't pay for? Who knows.
