Q: Do not install warning

A: The 30 feet requirement is not line of sight, but counts all wire length. This includes distance up or down the wall, under floor, through ceiling, etc.

Q: Is the cord you plug in flat on the wall/angled or does it plug straight in?

A: The Insignia 8 Outlet has a Straight Plug. It is Not Angled or Flat.

Q: I can't plug my stuff in!! It kind of looks like something metal is inside each outlet. Is it some sort of slide lock I can't figure out? If I hold the plug there, the unit charges, but the plug falls out as soon as I let go. How do I charge my stuff?

A: This is a feature called "Manufacturing Defect". Refund time! BTW - This device is not UL rated for surge protection. It is a glorified extension cord with lots of outlets. See attached photo for a description of surge protection devices for electronics.

Q: I have my surge protector plugged in and my stuff plugged into it, the light that says protected is lite up but the grounded light does not light up? Is this normal if.not what should I try?

A: Perhaps your wall outlet is not properly grounded. I'd tried a different wall outlet in another room. Both lights should be on.

Q: Will this plug into an older home's two-prong outlet?

A: The Insignia 8-Outlet Surge Protector Strip needs to be plugged into a grounded outlet (3-prong) to provide surge protection.

Q: What is the combined maximum amperage rating of all devices plugged in to this outlet strip?

A: The device has a UL 15 amp outlet configuration. That means a TOTAL of 15 amps for ALL items plugged in. Don't forget about the inrush current that devices such as refrigerators have.

Q: What is the USB speed?

A: This surge protector does not have USB ports.

Q: I have my LG 50 tv and sound box all plugged into a surge strip for about 5 yrs. now I am getting interferences on tv and have noticed a yellow light on the strip is on with the green one. Is this an indication I need a new surge strip?

A: I would substitute another adaptor to check; a five year 50 inch (??) TV may have its own issues especially if plasma.Anyway eleimante adaptor as variable first ; check TV display.
