APC Surge Protector, White Power Strip PH8W, 2160 Joules, Flat Plug, 8 Outlet Power Strip

I have been a fan of APC products for years using the surge strip and APC battery backup units. I lost a surge strip and only one of three devices from a hit my older non-APC took.

Bought 2 for 10$ a pop. Then Bought a bigger one because I needed more plug ins on my one side of the room. So I gave one to my old man. He likes it so I’m happy

Had 2 power outages within the last month. Helped keep my 70 in ch tv, cable box, sound bar in tact. Had no problems!

Perfect replacement for my old power strip at my desk.

Its APC, it trust it with my high end electronics. Will update if fails. All my battery back-ups at work are APC, I havent really tried anything else. I probably wont. Thanks APC!

This is exactly what I wanted. (It’s even better - slimmer, easier to handle cord, than the Belkin in this design style.) Perfect fit for the lower shelf of my night table. To charge my phone, iPad, Bluetooth headset, and the like (plug my lamp into it as well, for convenience-sake not surge protection). The 8 outlets are perfectly spaced/placed. I briefly considered the model with the USB cord plugs directly into the unit, but for me, at this point, for this purpose the extra price didn’t seem worth-it. My USB charging adapters aren’t that bulky, and with this design they can be plugged side-by-side. I do like the convenience of that design, with the USB plugs, and will likely get it in the future, and move this one to either my home-office, or dressing area. So, this “basic” one wouldn’t be wasted. And meanwhile it’s a great budget option that sacrifices none of the design, style, or function. It’s attractive, useful, well conceived/designed and executed. For well under $20. Nice color too. Would be perfect anyplace. Though I’d think this more basic model isn’t intended for multiple multimedia devises all in one - looked like they had more suitable models for if you wanted to say plug in your TV, your game console, your streaming and/or cable - do they still call it that? - box/devise, your speakers with or without subwoofer, along with your modem and WiFi-router all into one. Someone, who works with high end electronics and/or an electrician/engineer correct me if I’m wrong. But I’d get a model - of this same device if there’s one of suitable capacity - which that’s meant to handle such a load for my entertainment center. I think another reviewer talked about joules and capacity, I think it was for this model. Or at least this manufacturer. Though I don’t see it being convenient for travel - not sure about that question there, maybe more convenient than some other styles; certainly not anywhere that’s not 120V, and I doubt that at this level it’s sufficient protection for anywhere with radically irregular electrical/voltage supply, not just the occasional spike, like say - Malawi Africa for a random example out of personal experience, for something like that you’d actually have to spend money and get a proper UPC, not to mention bulky-bulky, but that’s not relevant here, for this, just this isn’t something like that. This is for use with stable electrical and voltage supply, should give perfectly adequate protection for the occasional spikes and surges such as those following a power outage, within the design specification.

Just the right amount of protection for my AV center (TV, audio, AV components). Good price and sturdy.

Im tired of these power strips that have a bunch of nonsense sockets on them. Thank you, APC.

Theres one minor issue with this, which is the mounting holes on the back. Theyre 3-sided (T-shaped) as you can see in the picture, and the one side thats missing is the orientation that you are most likely to want to mount it, with the three sideways plugs downward so that large power bricks fit there and hang downward. Other than that, its a quality product.

Reliably high quality. Their name still means something.
