I bought this to allow me to use a cheaper non-surge protected multi-socket extension that plugs into this. In the case of a surge I just replace THIS and not thr multi-socket (which i have wall-mounted so really don't want to replace). I'm assuming it is doing it's job... but these devices only prove themselves in the event of... an event! Single down-side so far is that the cheap plastic glows red ALL OVER from the little red "mains on" light at the top. The case must be really thin!! Glad I'm not using this in a bedroom... it acts as a permanent night light :-/
Firstly what I ordered and what I got was different. This was the second time I ordered this item. The first one was as in the picture. The second time was different And not what was expected. It was in a plain plastic bag. And looked and felt very cheep.didn't have time to send them back, as they was needed for a job.
The first was as advertised, fully packaged with instructions.
There's a dirty great big red led inside that makes the whole thing light up. I don't know if they actually work as surge protectors - nothing's blown up yet - but I' prefer something a little more discreet than yet another glowy light in the corner of my living room behind the tv.
Although they haven't been tested yet as we haven't had any thunderstorms since they were installed, our hope is that our telephones and broadband hub will not suffer any further damage when we next have a storm. They fitted perfectly in a limited space & cost very little. Thank you
