I was interested in the design of this power strip because you could rely on the current flowing through this device up to 15 amps. The label says UL compliant, which is not the same as UL listed or UL recognized. It may or may not be compliant. The design is tolerable but odd - the engineering is, well, iffy. Instead of cable bushings, a strip of brass (or something plated) is used that runs the full length of the strip. This is typical of plastic extension cords. The ground connection to the frame is a screw on a small spacer that is pressed into the frame. I would have preferred to see a crimp and rivet combo. The soldering on the board that contains the switch, display, and overvoltage protection (MOV) is very sloppy, but all connections seem to be held together, although the exposed holes are of poor design. No fuse or circuit breaker, just surge protector. (which cannot protect against short circuit). So you are dependent on the switch for the outlet it is plugged into for overcurrent protection. I'm just not sure if the current capacity of this bar is 15 amperes (typical value for a household socket). It's probably best suited for low-power devices like power adapters and devices that only draw a few amps. I find this overpriced for the build quality and design. If you need it for a power tool shop etc I would look for something more powerful in construction for higher current devices.
