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

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

I cannot vouch for its Effectiveness because we did not have a significant power surge or outage since I purchased this. Hopefully it acts and responds is Good As It Seems

I have always used APC power strips they offer great protection for electrical equiptment. You cannot go wrong.

As other reviewers have written, the LEDs are bright. Ridiculously bright, so make sure its in a place where you dont have to look at them all the time or they will drive you mad. Otherwise, typically well made APC product.

I needed a power strip with over 6 outlets and wanted a decent Joule rating. Also I have owned APC in the past and have been very satisfied with the quality. This power strip so far has met my expectations and is working out great.

I got this mainly because it was one of the thinner units that had 8 plugs. For me this was important because I wanted it fit in the cable organizing tray on a sit-stand desk. It does so wonderfully and I havent had any issues in the short time Ive used it. Its currently powering a PC, monitor, bookshelf speakers, desk lamp, and a few usb chargers.

I got a new iMac and wanted to use my old Mac Pro tower for music recording. I wanted something small to plug a number of things into, including my Mac. This was the perfect fit. Does the job and has a small footprint.

I bought 3. I currently use one for my laptop/monitors, the second for my TV, Wi-Fi, gaming console, and the third one at my boyfriends apartment for his TV, gaming console, etc. I ordered this one because of the USB ports, room for different size plugs, the flat plug, white color to look less dusty, and 2160 joules to protect my electronics if there was lightening spike. I like that theres an indicator light that shows if the surge protection is actively working, rather than some power strips that just have a fake light for the power button. The bottom of it also does say it is ETL listed which is always always good for insurance purposes. Ive had this since early February and havent had any issues yet.

Ive been using APC for most of my eletrical needs (ups, pdu, surge protectors). Unit is made of plastic but appears to be pretty durable. It has plenty of room for me to connect my laptop, monitor and other thingamigs at my desk. The built in usb ports are also handy for charging tablets and phones they provide plenty of power to handle charging a iPad 5th gen without any problems.

Reasonable number of outlets in a compact form factor, with USB charger ports too. Nice thin form factor too. Only down-side is that the LEDs are *bright*. You could use them as a night light in a bedroom, or cover them with electrical tape to black them out. In my home office its not an issue, but something to know about in a dorm room, etc.
