Good surge protector for AV gear and odd sized plugs

This is a fairly basic surge protector from Tripp Lite. Tripp Lite makes reliable surge protectors and I have other products from them that don't have rotating plugs or USB charging capability. Swivel end caps are rigid enough to stay in the position you left them and work well for installing large wall end caps that typically cover two end caps. Charging via USB works perfectly. I'm using it to power an external hard drive for my Wii U games console. The only reason I'm not entirely happy with

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • Zero

Very good universal extension

This is a great extension. I love that I can rotate the outlets to easily accommodate each power supply and not block other outlets. The USB charger is also a nice convenience. The only thing I would change about this item if possible is the power button, it seems like it's too easy to accidentally turn off. In my opinion it would be better if it was set back more or had a hinged lid over it or something like that. I still gave 5 stars. I love this strip. I carry it in my laptop bag along with…

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Can I add something

Ok that's all good for power strips and surge protectors

Nice design - rotating heads are very good. But. 1) As others have pointed out, the switch is very weak and also easy to turn off by touching it: not good. Let's hope it survives use. 2) The keyhole slots on the back for mounting are not slots at all: you will need very small headed screws to mount this to a wall or table. Since they are so unusual, they should have been included.

Pros
  • Finally bought
Cons
  • I'll add later

Very satisfied; worth the money

finally! A surge protector that I can plug all plugs into (unlike more traditional models which are fixed). I really like the feature where I can rotate individual sockets to make room for all the electronics I need. Also, I like that it has two USB ports for phones or other devices equipped with these power adapter sockets. Last but not least, this worked for me with no downsides. Although it may seem a bit pricey, it's worth the investment.

Pros
  • acceptable
Cons
  • speed

I ordered a Tripp Lite 6 rotary surge protector for our caravan. There are only 6 power sockets and most of them are ceiling mounted making it almost impossible to use all appliances and electronics. The rotating sockets make it easy to connect multiple devices in the kitchen while cooking. It comes with a long cord, making it easy to mount on a table or counter. It also has two USB sockets for charging children's mobile phones and electronic devices. I would definitely recommend it to a…

Pros
  • Special offer
Cons
  • Not as good as advertised

Great power strip!

I love Tripp Lite PowerStrips. I bought 3 rotating PowerStrips. I use all 3 for our various electrical products. I like the flexibility of rotating the ports to connect larger devices. Built-in USB charging ports are a bonus. I've been using Splitter for several months with no problems. Good product! I'm sure I will buy more.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Hard to say

Works great, but there are some potentially overlooked downsides.

Rotatable plugs are very convenient. A few things that stand out are the presence of internal sockets that the external plugs have to match. Basically, you can't plug anything in and then turn it 180 degrees. I think there are 4 different angles you can rotate the outer plugs to and then plug something in. Not really a problem, just something to keep in mind. Also, the on/off toggle switch almost never stays in the off position. Potentially dangerous if you turn it off than tampering with it as

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Socket required
