Review on AspenTek Supply Adapter Inline Switch by Alicia Hintze

Revainrating 1 out of 5

DANGEROUS. FIRE HAZARD. DO NOT BUY.

It exploded. No, literally: it exploded. For almost two years my partner and I heard a loud bang as we went to bed only to turn on a strip of LED lights on my desk and upon investigation we found that one of the motherboard components had exploded and the plastic at the back right torn from the back of the device. I'm incredibly grateful that we were both in the apartment when this happened: I shudder to think of what might have happened if we hadn't been here and left to smolder. In short, unless you're hoping for a big insurance payout and you're feeling incredibly lucky, don't buy this. Pay a few bucks more for a true UL certified power supply.

Pros
  • Safety circuit protection function: short circuit, over current, over voltage, overload
Cons
  • Hard to say
