Review on Protector JACKYLED Universal Protection Extension by Mohammed Prude

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Not quite the improvement in my electrical issues that I was hoping for.

At first I thought I needed switches for each individual row of plugs, but I didn't because if I accidentally press the switch, that row of sockets will turn on or off and I (quite often , to cause trouble) I hit her BUT I don't know, and this whole series is disabled now. Also, they are rocker switches and can easily be accidentally pressed. I often plug in things that don't give immediate feedback, like a beep at boot or a bright light, so I just assume they're on (consider plugging in your phone charger without your phone plugged in (often brings this nothing, it's just there) ) so what did you think). You just assume it's hot when you put your phone on it to charge later in the night. All this dynamic is just an annoyance to me because mine is on the floor, and while it's easily accessible, I don't have tabletop viewing angles, so it's often done by touch. You know what I mean. These are just real life things I encounter with this device and that brings me to why I dislike it the most. All external are arranged vertically. Yes it's a tower, we know it's right. I have, and that's what attracted me the most about her, but that's why I don't like it at all. Every time I want to plug or unplug something, it's a two-handed job at best. It's very difficult to plug and unplug something, especially with one hand because the tree wants to tip over every time, so you have to hold it with one hand and unplug with the other, and many times you pull an unintended plug and your computer has just shut down. This all seems obvious, but I didn't think it would be such a problem. I'm looking for my old flat extension cords because they're easier for me to work with. Because of these "things" I do not fully recommend this item. It's nicely built, nicely packaged, looks and feels solid, but that's where the good ends.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Empty
