Good Product with Room For Improvement

Pros: Very nice and compact design that plugs straight into the wall outlet without extra cords. Good surge protector for basic, low power-draw electronics, especially by your nightstand. The pivot plugs help you fit smaller power blocks next to other power cords as long as you dont have multiple blocks next to each other.
Cons: Missing USB ports, would be nice if Belkin added 2 or more USB ports at the top. Also, the distance between the pivot plugs could be increased to allow some more room; difficult to take full advantage of the pivot plugs when you have one of the outlets shifted all the way outward toward the wall. As you can see the third prong is facing outward, so larger power blocks don't always fit. Since this unit blocks both standard wall outlets, surprised they didn't take advantage of using both of those outlets for increased output. Also would be nice to have child proof outlets.

Not bad, but be careful!

These are rated at 15 amps but that is the total for the entire unit. using this with an appliance with high draw is not recommended. The individual outlets are plastic and not NEMA rated. You will notice that all your homes wall outlets are of a hard plastic materi8al. These are each rated to carry the full load supplied to the line which in most outlets is 15 amps. The problem is not the current but the heat which may be produced in certain instances. The outlets in this device can melt at that level of heat. So for an LCD monitor, some wall warts, or other low-draw devices this is a nice unit, but the use of a thermal plastic for the actual outlets is something you should be aware of.

Hi, RGBlues,
As long as the devices connected to our Surge Protector is within its capacity, then this shouldn't be experienced. Allow us to have our Escalation Engineers look closely into this and provide the necessary actions.
