Review on πŸ”Œ Powerful Silver Panamax M4-EX: 4 AC Outlet Surge Protection for Ultimate Safety by Mark Gancio

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Too bad this device is no longer manufactured

This is my second purchase of this device; The Panamax pissed me off a little because that purchase came with a fancy Maxx 1000+. Panamax customer service deteriorated; Old devices have operated trouble-free for at least 10 years before they failed. And the only way to get a replacement is to overspend. I bought a couple of these to have some "always on" outlets that you can't get with cheaper panamax products. I have trusted Panamax for a long time, which is why I bought these two devices. But apparently this item is no longer made and I'm afraid the company may be headed in the same direction. In the past their products have been highly recommended in the stereophile community and other heavy industries; now i'm not sure anymore. These particular devices are solidly built and I hope to keep them on at all times based on the positive results of the experience so far. I've never had a unit that smokes or burned out - both of my failed units were due to failed voltage regulators and I'm assuming it's a part that wears out over time - the failed unit did what it was supposed to do should: closed down. and leave my equipment intact.

Pros
  • Accessories and consumables
Cons
  • Very expensive
