General:
Oh, I suppose those long power/surge strips have their benefits but I'm tired of them. I'm especially tired of them on a "single file" row that prohibits plugging in those plug/AC adapter combos that cover (or nearly cover) the adjacent slot/plug. This little "guy" is sweet and to the point. It has all that is needed in a small compact surge/power strip. See below.
PRO:
Angled plug. This is especially useful to NOT cover the plug below when using the top plug of a standard household outlet.
Flat plug. I plug mine in behind my desk and don't need to push the desk away from the wall to make room for the plug cord sticking straight out,
It has a subte little light to indicate the power is on.
And, it has an of/off switch.
The plugs I plugged in felt snug and firm (but I didnt need to "force" them in). It was a nice fit.
And while it probably doesn't matter much, it was a nice thought to add little rubber feet to prevent sliding easily.
It's a fair price.
CON:
I cant think of any.
Conclusion:
I don't know how well it does its job during a storm. I hope it's not put to the test. As well-built as this item seems to be, I'm going to assume it will help with electrical problems. Otherise, this is just what I needed. I highly recommend this product.
I use Amazon reviews extensively to make decisions on my purchases. It follows that I should honestly review items that I have liked (or not liked) so as to benefit other Amazon customers (as I would have them do for me). LLBB
