Digital camera reviews of Belkin Pivot-Plug Surge Protectors
Digital camera Review: Awesome Surge Protector
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this surge protector because I needed something to hold all of my plugs, I have one empty plugin left, and this works like a charm. I have had no problems so far. Shipped fast for USPS.Digital camera Review: Awesome. Pivot is the way to go.
Summary: 5 Stars
Perfect for connecting multiple large plugs (like on external hard drives).
Pivot allows you to fit them all some way or another.
I should buy 2 more just to have once I some extra cash.
Digital camera Review: BELKIN BP112230-08 8 Feet 12 Outlets 4320 Joules Pivot-Plug Surge Protector
Summary: 5 Stars
Once again short and to the point, I have owned this item for at least 3 months and I love this surge protector! with 12 outlets its hard to run out of places to plug things in and the1-in, 2-out RJ11 telephone/fax surge protection, and coaxial protection are a nice bonus. It also has places on the back for wall mounting and the $300,000 connected warranty is very nice to. This Belkin surge protector has survived 6 power failures, 3 power surges and 1 close lightning strike with a laptop, Tv, phone, all in one printer, DVD player, Direct TV box, alarm clock, Mp3 player,and a lava lamp, and it still works like day 1!!! I think the only way that this is possible is because this model of Belkin surge protector has a max amp resistance of 250,000 or it could just be "dumb luck". At the stores it is close to; if not double or more the price that it is here on Amazon. At Office Max it was $over 52. Either way I highly this surge protector(BELKIN BP112230-08 8 Feet 12 Outlets 4320 Joules Pivot-Plug Surge Protector).Digital camera Review: Bad Surge Protector, why isn't this recalled?
Summary: 1 Stars
This surge protector will not last more than a year, the spring on the power button will eventually wear out and you wont be able to power it or it will shut down when you do. Then Belkin will just send you the same exact unit for replacement without recalling the entire unit and offer a better replacement. All the complaints here seem to be related to the same issue, the power button.
Im on my second unit I just received about 3 months ago. If this trash "surge protector" breaks again Im getting a Monster. At least their products are guaranteed to be reliable.
Digital camera Review: Bad power button, 4 defective ones in a row!
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought 2 of these at full price because of the great design and I thought it was very well thought out since the outlets are able to pivot. I thought I'd never need another power strip again after buying 2 of these since they can handle so many things being plugged in at once.
Within 1 month the problem started and unfortunately it is a big problem. The units would start turning off by themselves! The first few times I thought it was a short power outage in my area.
I have used a lot of power strips and I have never had any problem with any before so I never thought it was the power strip that was the problem. When I realized it was not my homes power I felt ripped off. It got to the point where as soon as you pushed down on the power button it would start making clicking sounds and turn off by it's self. The power strips turning off on my work computers coast me a lot of time and money.
I contacted the company and they sent another batch of them instead telling me it would not happen again and that mine were just defective. They would not refund my money and only sent more to me. The next set of them had the same problem within a month and now I'm writing this review to warn people it's not just a few that are defective and it is all of them.
There are a lot of positive reviews about this product but they all must only be from people that don't touch the power button often and just leave it on all the time. The more you push down the power button to turn on the power the more chance my situation will happen to you.
I recommend a product with a flip switch instead of a button that may have faulty springs under the power switch or whatever is causing the problem I have experienced.
