Guard your home theater equipment with this Insignia™ NS-HW503 8-outlet surge protector that features a 600-joule rating for reliable protection. Four outlets feature added space for fitting large plugs.
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.
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.
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.
A: This surge protector does not have USB ports.
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.
