Accell Power Air - Black Surge Protector 💡 with USB Charging Station, 6 ft (1.8 m) (D080B-048B) Review

I bought this unit to replace an old power strip that wasn't pretty, properly protected and didn't have USB ports. I haven't unpacked the Accell 'Powramid Air' for a month or two. When I opened it I saw that the connector is not flat (and does not rotate). I knew I made a mistake buying this device. To Accell Customer Service: Would you exchange the product? More than thirty days have passed since the purchase. The product is in brand new condition, has never been used; Only the box is not…

The vast majority of surge protectors continue to provide power after a surge, the protection circuitry has failed (and they all eventually fail). This allows you to use a surge protector years after your devices' protection ends and never even realize you're not protected. The main reason I bought these is that when they can no longer protect, they fail completely, meaning they don't offer air conditioning. This is how all surge arresters should work, but only a few. Not only does this surge…

It replaced a bulky 10-socket power strip used as a charging station for my family's numerous devices and greatly reduced clutter. Obviously it's meant to be used on a table or countertop, not on the floor or hidden behind furniture. The unit is compact but has enough room to plug in six AC adapters, which tend to block adjacent outlets on line splitters. sockets are fixed; This is probably intentional to prevent heavy adapters from shifting due to the angled orientation of the outlets. The…

USB ports not working (new/flat/non-pyramidal model). I can't find out when they stopped working or if they worked at all. I've tried making a warranty claim and it's not as easy as most companies - it requires a PDF or Excel file that can't be filled out on mobile. No online form like most sellers. It also sounds like they are forcing me to ship this junk back at my expense making this surge protector more expensive than I wanted. I'm reluctant to invest extra money and time to fix such a…

This is the best little solution to a big problem. Now that there are so many electrical devices in the office, it's best to have a power outlet on your desk for easy charging or just general power supply. I have one in my home office that I can plug my phone or laptop into when needed without having to crawl under my desk. I have one in my work office that I use in the same way, but also plugs in my portable kettle and other things I need to plug and unplug regularly. It is excellent. And the…

Great surge protector that I've been using for a while now. I liked the built in USB ports for charging when needed. The design is different but very high tech. I bought 2 of these for each side of my bed. My bedside tables came with cheap built in chargers so they are great and you have plenty of room for outlets and they are spaced to the sides unlike a regular straight extension cord so you can fit all sizes of power adapters in them, especially the bulky ones . I would recommend them to…
