12-Outlet Surge Protector Power Strip, 3000J, 8ft Cord, Angled Plug

MARCH 2017: I usually only do reviews for 5 star and 1 star items. In this case, give this surge protector 5 stars. Over 30 years, I lived in multiple states in the Southern USA - Florida,Georgia, and Texas, and the lightning storms are the worse in that part fo the country. I mean brutal! House rattling. Extreme. And sometimes with hail besides. And we also had brown-outs. Around 2007, one of our homes was hit by lightning; it blew out the outside floodlights, burned a hole in the roof, and we lost some electrical devices, BUT WE LOST NO DEVICE that was plugged into a surge protector. It did burn out all the surge protectors we had -- I think 5 of them. And depending upon your home or apartment insurance company, you may get reimbursed for them if you ever get hit. I bought 3 of these over a few months. I selected the model with ETHERNET protection, not the USB port version. If you need extra USB ports to charge your devices, buy one of the multi-port boxes (sold on AMAZON) that are about 3 inches by 3 inches in size and have AC on one end and 4 or more USB ports. Plug this into your surge protector. The features of this BELKING POWER STRIP include: - power on/off switchwith green led power on light - surge protection for your DVR, or cable or satelite receiver (if they get their signal from a coax cable) - includes EMI / RFI filtering to remove these "noise" signals which can give you "buszzes" or "hums" in the audio of your TV or surround sound system. - surge protection for your cable modem or router, if it gets its signal from an ethernet cable - 12 outlets and surge protection for each; 6 of these are on the outer edge so it should accomodate the power transformers (the black boxes with an AC plug) for some devices like printers, a TV sound bar, cable modem, etc - heavy duty power cable to run to the AC outlet Buy from AMAZON a quad-shielded (that is the amount of signal insulation around the inside cable) RG6 coax cable. Pick a length like 4 feet or so. Your coax from the wall goes into the surge protector "COAX IN". Then run this new RG6 cable from the surge protector "COAX OUT" to your DVR /cable / satelite receiver. Buy (from AMAZON) an ethernet patch cable. Similar to the coax cable, run the existing cable from the wall into the surge protector "IN". Then use your patch cable to run from the surge protector "OUT" to your cable modem or router. NOTE: I've never made a claim to any surge protector company; most include damage "insurance" with the purchase of the surge protector for devices you plug into the surge protector. Keep your receipts for all purchases. Personally, I'd rather buy a good surge protector than rely on a claim for a burnt out 60" TV or expensive audio equipment, and expect to get paid without a lot of hassle. Do they depreciate the device - e.g. a $2,000 TV from 2 years ago that sells for $600 today ? How much would you get? Do they only pay you what your home insurance does not pay for? Who knows.

Conectado o a mí LED TV, mi Apple TV y blue ray, funciona perfectamente.

Did exactly what it was supposed to. I've had this surge protector for five years. Never had an issue with it. Today, one of my cats knocked over a 30 ounce glass of tea, right onto the surge protector. Not only did the surge protector shut everything down, not one single piece of my electronics was damaged. The surge protector is now dead and I've ordered another Belkin which should arrive tomorrow. Definitely worth every penny I pad for it.

Pros - 12 ports! - Ethernet, coaxial and phone line protection - Low profile head - On/Off switch Cons - Price? I bought this product soon after a power surge fried my three year old laptop's DC jack and motherboard. Though pricey, the protection it offers is invaluable. That being said, I got mine for only 20 dollars from a seller that handled their own shipping. Of further note, the on/off switch is extremely handy when trying to limit phantom power draw from your connected devices, though I still make it a practice to unplug the surge protector whenever its not in use. I'm sure you'll agree that unplugging one plug from its socket is better than twelve... The Ethernet, coaxial and phone line sockets allow this unit to provide total isolation for your system. Do remember though that the product has a maximum wattage rating of 1875W (this information is missing from the 8 feet product page), so take care to not overload it.

I currently own MULTIPLE Belkin power surges with extremely long cords that are STILL working great after 8+ years. I also bought another heavy duty model for a new TV in the living room last year. Decided it was overdue to invest in some new ones for the electronics. Bought this one and kept it in the package for a while since I was in the process of temporarily moving to one location and shipped it to that location. By the time I opened it, it was passed the return date, but I wasn’t concerned after being pleased with previous purchases. However, once I did, I was disappointed to discover that the power switch was extremely flimsy but it appeared to still work. (Please refer to another customer’s video above, you’ll see exactly what I mean...😠) After returning to my original location, I packed it up (I had only used it for about 1-2 weeks at this point) and kept it in storage. Just reopened it and plugged it in and now it appears that both the green and red lights are on (meaning protected AND not grounded)!🤔 I was confused about how they can both be on? Checked other plugs and they are only green (grounded/protected). However, after consulting my Dad (who used to do electrical work), he confirmed that the location that was giving the red/green wires were probably using knob and tubing since it’s an old home.☺️ He asked me to check the plug in another location that had newer wiring to see if it was green. I did and guess what?! The light was only green - showing it was grounded wiring and protection!🙌🏽🤗 So while I was initially upset by the flimsy power button and the two lights being on (both red and green), I’m grateful to know it’s actually VERY accurate and my devices will be secure.😁 It’s a great barometer to check all the plugs and ensure that all of the wiring is updated correctly after this home is rewired by a certified electrician. So 5-stars for the actual plug, but 1-star is deducted for the power button. Let’s see how well it keeps working a year from now... I hope it lasts as along as the others...🤓

Like the number of outlets it has. Replaced 2 power strips with just this one power strip. Has a very long very heavy duty 3 plug cord so strip can easily handle 4 or more AC/DC adapters and still have room for all your 110 plugs. Helped clean up the look of all the wires under my desk.

Definitely worth getting!!!! I have so much room to plug in everything I needed and even w the way it is set up w the row in the middle if the plug is wide it will still fit in the middle bc they left enough room btw the plugs. Love the extra space, perfectly layed out for awkward plugs. Very happy. With my old power surg protector the wider plugs took up two spaces and was planning on having to put them out the outside very far spaced plugs but they actually fit great in the middle row bc the extra space left I was shocked. I bought this bc I was planning on having to use the outter ones for these wider plugs but they fit in the middle now I got extra room. Like the Amazon Fire Stick was wide plug and it fits perfect in the middle.

The Belkin Surge Protector is an attractive design and should fit any decor. There are a large number of AC ports plus Telephone/Modem/Fax and Television Cable for protection. There are NO DC ports. This particular model is their highest capacity and carries a maximum dollar Warranty should it fail under normal conditions. Belkin is very specific about the conditions and what you must have and do to make a claim under their Warranty Provision. I plugged it in to my AC source and the light indicator showed a protected circuit. — RECOMMENDED —

El cable es grueso y largo, eso está perfecto, lo opción de poder tapar contactos no utilizados es genial para evitar dedos traviesos o inclusive una mascota curiosa, esta es una excelente compra para aquellos que tengan muchos electrónicos en un mismo lugar, ofrece protección a tus equipos y cómodo acceso a los contactos. Excelente artículo.

This power bar with surge protection has a warranty that protects electronics plugged into it from damage for up to $100,000 in damage. With this kind of guarantee, I don't think you could get a better power bar! I am impressed with the number of outlets, the long cord, solid build and quality. I would definitely recommend it.

I've owned Belkin power bars for decades. This is the same reliable and trustworthy power bars I've come to appreciate through the years. Highly recommended!

Es de muy buena calidad, muy recomendable

I bought this power bar because the 6-outlet power bars aren't cutting it anymore, especially while working from home. The spacing between the outlets and the design of this power bar is ideal. It's a bit larger than I expected but I realize this is necessary. I'm not clear on the warranty associated with this product (how to register, etc.) but I will look into it some more. The long cord is very useful although not necessary for my needs since I was able to place my desk fairly close to an outlet in my office, but it would be helpful in other spaces.
