Review on APC PE66W Surge Protector Power Strip - 1080 Joule, Flat Plug, 6 Outlet Cord Strip - White/Green by Brian Samaiyar

Revainrating 1 out of 5

high quality and features you can't find in other surge protectors in the same price range

Not all surge protectors are created equal, especially when compared within the same price range. Without a doubt the best surge protector in its price range! WHAT I LIKE (compared to my other Belkin surge protector): [+] Nicely and securely packaged in the box [+] Build and quality feels solid and sturdy [+] 6-foot cord that feels more flexible and handier on when you're not full length needed[+] Low profile 90 degree compact connector[+] 1 dedicated socket for adapter box or bulky E-plug[+] Holes on back for wall mounting![+] Peace of mind WHAT I DON'T LIKE [-] As mentioned by other reviewers, the bottom light seems to be buggy, but for me it's not a deal breaker as long as the safety light works[-] It would be nice to add 1 or 2 USB sockets, but this hat will probably change lift the price so it's not a deal breaker for me either, I don't know why, but it's so hard to find a surge protector strip with keyholes on the back these days. I remember the days when all extension cords had locking holes on the back so you could wall mount it or attach it to something so it wouldn't move when you plugged and unplugged it. This APC surge protector is $3 more expensive than the comparable Belkin model, but you get a lot more features and better quality for that price difference, but the biggest difference is the peace of mind. Conclusion: 5 out of 5 stars. Highly recommended.
