    Looks clean, much better quality than other surge protectors. Is pretty pricier though. Only got it bc it would be visible so wanted something that looked good.

    It is UL Listed. It has a flat plug in case you want to put it behind furniture. The power button is a bit recessed so it won't accidentally get switched off. It has 1 outlet further away from the other outlets in case you have a bigger DPI. It has a nice long cord. I wish the 2160 Joules was marked on the product, but this rating only ever seems to be on the packaging with these types of products.

    I have this set up for my fish tanks on my night nightstand & dresser. Super weird format I've got goin' on, but this made it possible to get all the lights and water pumps I need as well as charging my phone, watch and laptop without any explosions. It is a little on the pricey end but when you have an electricity bill like me, it's essential.

    Good Power Strip with Visual Indicators.

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I picked this power strip to add to my computer desk area for all the additional devices that I needed to charge. My desk is inconveniently located a good distance from any of the outlets in my room so I needed something with a longer cord and wall mountable for easy access. This power strip met both of those criteria. The power strip has a USB-A charging port built in with a 12w charging capacity and a USB-C PD port with a 20w charging capacity. These are the only shortcomings of this power strip, as both of those power limits are pretty low, the PD port isn't even high enough to put my phone into Fast Charging Mode, let alone Super Fast Charging. I wish they would have incorporated a 30-45w PD port to really make those ports worth it. I guess if you can't find a charging block they will get you by in a pinch, but I doubt I'll see much use for them. The power strip has 2 visual indicators on it for protections status. The first letting you know that its surge protection capability is intact. Thats a nice assurance for the devices you plug into it. Secondly it lets you know if the outlet you are plugged into is in fact grounded, which most people won't know if it is. So those are nice additions. Wall mounting the surge protector was easy enough. I do wish they would have included a template for the mounting screws to make it easier, but anyone handy will be able to put it up in 5 minutes or less. The 7 ports are going to be plenty enough for my VR charging station (I have 2 VR headset), so once my controller charging stations get in this thing will be working at near max capacity.

    Protect your electronics.

    It is pretty essential to have some sort of surge protection for your electronics. It’s much better to have to replace the power strip than try and replace that TV, sound system or any other electronics you might have hooked up. Plus, everything is using USB and not coming with power blocks any more. So, for example you have a TV, sound bar and a TV stick of some sort, then likely the TV stick just needs USB power and sometimes the TV power just isn’t enough to keep them powered. The flat angled plug is nice for being plugged up behind furniture and not requiring additional space just for the wire sticking out of the wall. Top that with the 6ft of cord and you can run this just about anywhere. There are 7 outlets and one of them is offset for larger power blocks. The wattage on the USB ports will run or charge most things, but it is not powerful enough to push some devices into the super or fast charge modes. But, for most cases it is more than enough. It has 2 LEDs for “protected” and “grounded” which some older houses still don’t have proper grounding and you know you should be protected from any surges. With the added fact that they have a “$200,000 connected equipment guarantee”, I’d say it is a decent investment over some cheaper brand surge protector that just boasts a red light. Just a shame it didn’t offer 45W output for the USB-C port to support larger devices.

    The protection you need for precious devices

    It’s a great investment to protect your precious electronics from power surge and spikes. It comes with a $ 200,000 equipment limited warranty, which basically means your device will be covered should power surge and spikes occur and cause damage to your device. In such cases, the power strip should be able to dissipate 2160 joules of energy. It is also rated to reduce EMI/ RFI on the power lines that can interfere with equipment performance. It has 7 power outlets with 12 W USB-A and 20 W USB C-PD ports. The position of the last outlet on the power strip is designed for power adaptor plug, with space optimization in mind. I really like the design because in a typical power outlet strip, a power adaptor would take two outlet spaces. There are two LEDs that tell us that the power strip has been properly functioning and grounded. The power strip is rated at 120,000 amps so it’s great for PC and home entertainment sets. So far, it works really well on my gaming PC and it charges my gaming accessories really well.

    Excellent Surge protector. EMI/RFI Benefits.

    To start off, I was using an older 90s-2000s design and wanted something more up to date for my networking area since my hardware such as Fiber ONT and Cable Modem are both very sensitive to EMI. (I run two internet services since I work from home). While my old unit did filter noise and what not, I was confident it wasn't the best surge protector for modern equipment. It's no secret that Rocketfish has been a legacy Best Buy house brand for years.. so I wasn't exactly worried that the product wouldn't be up to standards. PROS: -2160 Joltes rating. -400V Live to Neutral Suppression + 47 dB EMI filtration. -UL RATED (A must!) -14 AWG THICK grounded cable. -20W USB-C and 12 W full 5v 2.4A USB-A for fast charging without a extra plug. CONS: -Transient suppression is pretty average. (400V) 330V would be best. - Outlet placement could be more spaced out. Right bottom corner outlet is only spaced plug. -Plastic shell or industrial design could be improved. Not the best looking tap. SUBJECTIVE THOUGHTS: I wont sugar coat it.. It's a tap. Not very special, but a good thing to have in regards to protection for sensitive equipment. I subjectively think this unit helps my other sensitive electronics feel better such as laptop when moving around mouse motion on laptop or desktop PC. This could be placebo, but my networking area also seems more stable for wireless throughput across my home. A very nice potential benefit to switching out the older unit. -Has two LED indicators for ground and protection. Dim blue.. not overbearing like other designs. -I really don't like the plastic body. Seems cheap, but the electronic design inside likely makes up for a bulk of the cost. OVERALL: I think this is a very good tap and I would Glady grab another given the positive feedback with my network stack area. The Only thing I dislike is the plastic body mold.. Could be better. 4.5/5. Giving it the full 5 stars.
