Our verdict

A two-pack of basic six-outlet strips with a short cord and wall mounting. The joule rating is low, so these suit lamps and chargers, not valuable electronics.

Overview

A bedroom wall, a hall closet or a spare room can fit these low-profile strips, which come as a pair. Each has a circuit breaker, an LED indicator and a power switch, and can mount to a wall.

Two strips in a pack cover two rooms. The short cord limits placement to near the outlet. The listing mentions lamp and light uses, and the surge energy is on the low side.

Who it's for

Apartments and spare rooms that need simple extra outlets. Skip them for home theaters and workstations, where a higher joule rating makes sense.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Two strips in the pack
  • Circuit breaker included
  • LED indicator and switch
Cons
  • Low surge rating
  • No USB ports

Performance notes

The joule rating shows how much surge energy the strip can absorb before protection is used up, and this one is low. The circuit breaker trips on an overload. The LED shows when the strip is powered.

It is a low rating, so these are better for lamps and small devices.
