Belkin See more information on Belkin SurgeMaster, 4-Way, 1m Cable at Amazon UK or at Amazon.com Average Rating:  Rating:  - A well advised purchase, but beware issues with high power draw computersGiven that these surge protectors are available at nominal cost and will protect your potentially valuable electronic equipment in the event of a power spike, these items are an obvious purchase for every household. There's not really a lot more to say, except that the build quality of the power strip seems to be high. My only issue I have found is that I sometimes have difficulty persuading my PC to boot when it is powered via the surgemaster. The problem seems to be the initial high power drawer of my NVIDIA 8800 GT graphics card. Therefore I sometimes have problems persuading my PC to boot, but since I don't reboot very often it is not really much of an issue. It was puzzling for a while though, so bear this in mind if your PC has a high-powered graphics card in it. Rating: - Works great, no complaintsWhat can I say? This does the job. The unit is well constructed and has presented no problems after 6 months use. Rating: - A MUST for every household.....well your never guess what happened..... our house got struck by lightning, the whole house shook and it wasn't good. its lucky that i kitted my whole house out with these surge protectors no more than two months before this happened , they have more than likely saved me thousands of pounds. so , like many others have said its one of those products that holds a question mark but i would seriously recommend that you invest in some of these, before its too late. Rating: - It's stupid not to have oneSurge protectors are curious things. You have no way of knowing whether they are working. My PC didn't explode today - was that thanks to Belkin, or because there were no surges? You only ever know for sure that it isn't working, not that it is. But anyway, I have seen a PC explode during a thunder storm. I recovered, but the PC didn't. It was a few years ago, but the PC was high-spec and only 3 months old. A Belkin surge protector costs less than a pizza. Go figure. Any decent mathmetician would now point out that we should consider: [cost of PC] x [risk of exploding] vs [cost of surge protector] True, but emotionless. An exploding PC is no fun at all. For a few pounds you can avoid that (I think). So do it. Rating: - Does what it saysI decided to buy the Belkin Surge Protector to protect my TV, DVD player and Playstation 2 which I didn't want to get damaged as a result of the electricity supply. It's great and you really can't lose anything from this apart from 7 or 8 quid. The best part of this is the cable thing which keeps your cables all neat and tidy. And it's well better paying that than hundreds of pounds for new stuff. But on the other side you could say the likelehood of anything happening is rare. You're taking a risk if you don't buy this but it's up to you. If you don't care about your electrical goods I guess you aren't going to buy this. 9/10.
