Review on Surge Protector Power Strip SUPERDANNY by Robert Sorrells

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fire hazard! - Extension cord and surge protector

about nine months ago. Only one 1500W device was connected. No other 120V or USB outlets were used. I smelled burning plastic in the room. I couldn't believe what I found. The socket (in a modern building) has been blacked out. When I unplugged it, the left pin was red hot! I can't imagine that the electronics in the circuit breaker didn't prevent this. Incidentally, the device was a 1000 watt heater that continued to function normally. Are you protecting your device by going without an outlet? This product is not UL approved - it is made in China and only has a round "FC" symbol on the back. Seller could not be contacted. Revain's customer service issued a refund based on the one-year warranty, but also pointed out that they had no way of warning the seller of the danger.

Pros
  • practical item
Cons
  • bought a little change
