8-Outlet Surge Protector Power Strip with 2 USB-C Ports, 2m Cord | Extension Lead with USB Slots - 2 USB-C Ports (Fast Charging), Wall-Mountable with 8 AC Outlets, 2m Power Cord, 900 Joules

Solid surge protector. I upgraded from an old 6-gang surge protector. This one gives me all the plugs I need. The cable length is decent, better than my old surge protector. Medium value for money. It’s a lot of money. Plus, the instructions tell you to throw it away after 3 years or a power surge — whichever comes first. £30+ every three years for a surge protector is a bit much. Sadly Belkin uses the most absurd proprietary screws at the back to stop you from ever attempting to repair it. I would not recommend repairing a surge protector unless you’re a qualified electrician.

I bought this Belkin 8-Outlet Surge Protector Power Strip, because I got the power. Literally. I have so many devices and gadgets that I need to plug in and charge, and this power strip can handle them all. It has 8 outlets, a 6-foot cord, and a 2500-joule surge protection rating. It is the ultimate power accessory. With this power strip, I can use my laptop, phone, tablet, printer, scanner, speaker, lamp, and fan at the same time. I can also switch them on and off with a single button. It is so convenient and efficient. I never have to worry about power surges, spikes, or outages. This power strip protects my devices and saves me money. Of course, with great power comes a great electricity bill. But that's a small price to pay for having the power. Besides, I can always turn off the power strip when I'm not using it. That way, I can save some energy and reduce my carbon footprint. It's a win-win situation. This product is awesome. It has made my life easier, better, and more powerful. I would give it 5 stars and a high five. It is the best power strip ever. If you want to have the power, you need this product. Trust me, it's the shocking truth.

The usual Belkin high quality. More expensive than other similar products, but in this case you get what you pay for.

First off I’m giving this five stars based on the apparent quality, overall appearance, and personal experience of other Belkin products. I will update the star rating if needed at a later date. The size of this product was extremely important as I needed it to fit in a D-Link cable tidy. Belkin make no note of the size of this product that I could see on their website. Amazon do mention the size but it was obviously wrong. I went to a store that stocked a similar unit (one USB A and one USB C charging socket) and physically measured it before ordering this double USB C version. I’ve noted the size in the pictures. The unit is very slightly tapered from top to bottom. As you can see it fits quite nicely in the cable tidy.

Belkin have improved upon their previous power strips massively with this product. The main switch is now indented which means it doesn’t get accidentally pressed (like on their older models). The sockets are more widely spaced so your plugs are less likely to overlap and they’ve included over charge protection which turns excess energy into heat and dissipates it. I wouldn’t trust any other company to protect my electronics anymore. Belkin do such an amazing job and have such quality products that they guarantee to protect up to £60,000 of things plugged into this for two years. There’s really no competitor. Keep yourself safe, protect against electrical fires and buy one of these.

I used this to power my PC and other peripherals. Recently, I purchased a 5090 GPU with a default power draw of 575W. When at full GPU load the PSU draws about 1000W give or take. When the GPU creates a power spike (start of a load test, or heavy scenes in a game), the transients from the GPU and possibly the draw from the PSU cause the protection on this to trip, shutting down the PC. This took quite a few hours to diagnose since the power strip was not the first place to look. After connecting the PSU directly to the wall socket all issues disappeared. Note: To clarify the PSU is a 1300W ATX3.1 design to handle the transient spikes of these cards, so not that.

perfect, can’t fault this issue and from a trusted brand. the usb c ports are very useful

Fantastic quality, very well built and a nice long cable, works perfectly and silent, no buzzing like our previous surge protector 😳 This was expensive but feel it’s worth it for peace of mind.
