I love having some of these around the kitchen to fully switch off some appliances when not in use (e.x. toaster or other appliances that could be fire-prone if they ever malfunctioned). These are nice and compact and thus easy to plugin to an outlet and still keep the other socket available for use.

I have a number of these in use. But with a 250 Joules protection rating, I'm now wondering, what happens if it was to receive a higher surge of 650 Joules? Will it simply fry this little (and affordable) surge protector and the device plugged into it will no longer receive power? Or, will it only absorb 250 Joules and then let the remaining 400 Joules through to the device that is plugged into it? I am hoping that someone can answer this question.

very good

The light is a little bright, had to cover it with tape to use above a bed.

Excellente solution pour ces lampes et appareils dont l’interrupteur fonctionne mal ou est difficile d’accès. J’en garde toujours une d’extra avec mes rallonges électriques au cas où.

It might be a good idea to use it as an AC adapter with surge protection before connecting AC power to appliance.
