Review on πŸ’‘ KMC 6-Outlet Surge Protector Power Strip 4-Pack with Overload Protection, 2-Foot Cord, 600 Joule Capacity by Redfish Rosenhoover

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very good design except for the mounting screw slots

They have a standard socket spacing (28mm OC) which I really wish was 35mm to accommodate almost any wall wart nearby. Best of all, the main power switch that controls all outlets is lighted (an old-fashioned neon light that will soon flash and then stop working), AND there's a red LED to indicate main power (and it will last for years to come). ).BUT the mounting slots are useless: (1) they are too shallow to accommodate the screw head, and (2) they are bricked up at the end of the (too short) slot so the screw head (if it otherwise fits) prevents the shaft slides through the entire groove. See photo. If you want to install this you will need to use glue or strong double sided tape. This seller is very friendly to buyer so I'm sure they will fix it. But the two products I've bought from them so far lose their usability over time, although they have good physical design.

Pros
  • power divider and surge protector
Cons
  • weak
