Rocketfish™ - 7-Outlet/1-USB-C/1-USB 3,600 Joules Surge Protector - Black

Kept my 83" safely mounted for about a month now. Nice tilting angle which helps me tilt it downward to avoid the reflection of the ceiling light on it.

So far it works great and I haven’t had any issues. I have peace of mind that when using this my electronics will be safe.

Verdict: The Rocketfish 7-Outlet Surge Protector offers everything you would want in a surge protector: it is narrow so it fits nicely behind a monitor or furniture, it actually has seven outlets instead of the traditional six, it has two super-wide outlets for large plugs, it offers a USB outlet (12W) and a USB-C outlet (20W), it also connects your phone cord, cat-5, and coax cables for additional protection, and it has a 6-foot heavy duty braided cord. It comes with two non-slip feet so that wherever you place it, it stands tall, stable, and firmly in place. Best of all, it protects from surges with a $750,000 warranty for connected devices. I love it! Initial impressions. It is lighter than expected, and lighter than most surge protectors this size. It is not small, but because it’s thin, it can fit where you need. The heavy-duty braided cable is 6-ft long, which is really convenient. Installation. Take it out of the box, plug it in, and plug your gear into it and whatever other connectors you want protected. Literally plug and play! Performance. Our area loses power regularly during bad weather, so perhaps there are surges associated with power going off and on. While I can’t assess the performance of the surge protector on a day-to-day basis, I do have quite a bit more peace of mind that my nice monitor, desktop computer, and small devices are plugged into this surge protector, and are protected. I like that the surge protector displays a lighted “Protected” and “Grounded” display when plugged in. What I love: - It’s not heavy - It’s thin and can fit behind furniture or a monitor - The anti-slip feet keep it from moving around - The 6-ft braided cable is great - It has seven plugs, including two oversize plugs! This may be the first surge protector where I could actually fit 7 things I want to plug instead of losing one or two outlets because of really bulky brick plugs - You can plug many other devices and connections to extend protection and noise filtering - $750,000 warranty for connected devices - USB and USB-C connection! - 3-years warranty! What I don’t love: - Some plug adapters come sideways and some come straight. I have some power strips that are oriented in different directions to better manage different plug types. It would be great if this one mixed the orientation of 2 or 3 of the 7 plugs so you could fit plugs that are sideways. Overall, this is a great surge protector for your nice electronics or equipment. It is not cheap, but you get what you pay for. If you spent money on getting nice gear, it makes sense to spend a fraction of that cost to protect them.

Ok, so the form factor on this guy is pretty awesome. Rocketfish is bringing a solid product and form factor here. Not only do you get nicely spaced plugs, and the body of the device as slim as possible, but you also get USB-C power delivery and a USB-A port as well. Considering the use case of USB in most setups now, this is more than a nice to have. Opening the box reveals a very simple packaging. You get 2 feet, a manual, and the surge protector. The protector has it’s plugs oriented essentially what would be the side of a normal suppressor. 2 outlets are spaced out nicely, while the remaining 5 are fairly close. Below the plugs you’ll find a USB-C and USB-A port that can output 32W of power total (2.2a @ 9v or 3a @ 5v on the USB-C and 2.4a @ 5v on the USB-A). On the end with the USB ports you’ll find a Coax In/Out and the 6ft braided power cable. The cable sports a flat plug with a rotation to the right so that you can use it in the top outlet without obscuring the bottom outlet. The surge suppressor is rated for 3600 Joules of protection. The fact that there is a $750k connected warranty means that the engineers feel pretty confident in this device. I’m not sure what EFI/RFI protection is present here, but the marketing on the box touts it. I did notice a slight hum from the unit when using the USB power. Opening the case reveals a centralized MOV with a primary Ceramate MOV shunts (marked MFVA20M’s), in fairly decent number (5 on the primary stage, 3 on the secondary board). I found the component specifications if anyone is interested: www.ceramate.com.tw/assets/files/Ceramate-SPD-MFVA20MNxxxKD-Series-D08-.pdf. The RJ45 and Coax both are grounded with a simple shared ground connection, along with the USB daughter board and primary outlets. There is a low voltage power supply board and a separate USB controller circuitry. Overall, soldering wasn’t too bad, and i’ve seen worse construction. Unfortunately I’m not really equipped to analyze the circuitry in detail, but hopefully the pictures help. I verified that the humming was coming not from the power supply board, but the USB board. Overall the form factor, ease of use, and powerful USB output make this surge suppressor a good product to consider if you have a flat mounting area for your TV. The fact you can wall mount this surge suppressor, and it has decent USB power make this a versatile product. Recommended!
