Product Description 8-Outlet SurgeMaster Superior Series F9S820-06. Surge protection for your mid-level computers, peripherals, and more. This model offers 1770 Joules, 8-outlets, and a lifetime $150,000 Connected Equipment Warranty. 6ft cord Reviews This exact surge protector almost caused a fire. It did save my computer after a power surge outside, but it fried the unit and created burn marks on my hardwood floor. I was home when it happened. It made a loud zapping noise and the entire upstairs smelled like an electrical fire. I would never buy this product. My electrician asked me how much I paid for the surge protector...he said it looked so cheap, so we are looking into getting a whole house surge protector for about $90.00 for the part and about 2 hours of labor....worth it. I will never go cheapo on a surge protector again. Bought it for the protection warranty, it came in a pretty plain cardboard box with one sheet of paper, not the box shown in the picture. Hopefully if something ever happens to my tv and computer connected to it I will still be able to use the protection warranty. Two days ago PG&E installed a new drop line to my apartment complex but left a loose connection that caused power surges in my building. I had three power strips (purchased after my $1000 Sony tv fell victim to a power surge two years ago). I had two Monster HTS700 surge protectors and a Belkin surge protector, exactly like this model only about two years older. When I came home from work, my apartment smelled like a chemical factory and still does. I had my two tvs and dvd players plugged into the Monster products and my modem and router plugged into the Belkin. The Monster products were dead but my $3000 in electronics were fine. The Belkin product had caught on FIRE and if it wasn't for the fire retardant carpet, my whole building could have burned down including my two cute kitties. Funny enough it did protect the two electronics but I would have preferred that had died rather than having a two feet patch of burned carpet in my living room. Thought I should share my experience - I'm only purchasing the monster products from now on. I am very satisfied with this product. If you need a surge protector and some extra outlets, this is a very good option. This surge protector is an excellent value with 8 outlets. A sliding protecting mechanism deters unsuspecting children from putting themselves in a dangerous situation. A line splitter for the telephone jack is integrated into this system. I trust this system to protect my television and peripherals attached to it (bedroom and den). Overall, for the price, this is a great value.
