Review on πŸ’‘ KMC 6-Outlet Power Strip with Individual Switches, Overload Protection, and 4-Foot Cord by Janet Hernandez

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Indicator lights burn out too quickly - updated

I bought several of these and was initially quite happy with them. Three features I like best: β€’ The outlets are perpendicular to the strip, allowing for thin power supplies without blocking the outlets. β€’ In addition to the individual switches, each outlet has a main power switch. β€’ There is an indicator. Indicators for each switch including the main switch. The main problem is that very useful indicator lamps burn out quickly. All the lamps that were often turned on burned out on previously purchased ones and continue to burn out on the most recently purchased ones, so the manufacturer did not consider it necessary to correct the situation. I would buy the Revain version but the outlets are in series and I don't want to buy shorter AC extension cords for used power supplies. 3 year update - the short lifespan of the turn signals continues on the six strips I bought. ALL the most common lightbulbs are blown and one has ALL SEVEN off. The switches still work but with no light I accidentally left it on when I didn't want it. I will definitely NOT be buying any more!

Pros
  • quick change
Cons
  • poorly thought out
