Customer Review: It Really, Really Works
Summary: 5 Stars
Last night, my home was hit by a stray power surge. According to the electrician who came this morning, the surge was drawn to my 2 surge protectors. The first was this Belkin model (5 years old) protecting my computer and equipment. The 2nd was a cheap protector from Ace protecting the TV and satellite receiver. Both protectors are, of course, now dead. And both successfully did their jobs so that all of my electronic equipment was saved.
HOWEVER, there was an arc flash (I think that's what the fire is called) at the Ace protector. It melted and twisted;black soot covers the protector and the wood floor around it; black stain is on the receiver plug prongs where it was plugged into the protector. And there was a terrible bang! With the Belkin SurgeMaster--NO PROBLEMS! The electrician says that the cheaper protector could not handle the voltage. He praised the capacity of the Belkin SurgeMaster and said its quality prevented any further damage, saved my computer equipment, and also prevented another fireball. It did just what it was supposed to do.
Needless to say, I'm convinced. No flash or arc from the Belkin and no fear of a fire (which I never, never want to see again). I've ordered 2 more Belkin SurgeMasters of this exact model for both my computer and the TV setup. I'll never be without them again. It was a very scary experience, especially the fireball, and all I have to do is make sure I'm using a good Belkin protector so that I don't have a repeat. I'm positive that the Belkin is what saved my computer. Thank goodness for this excellent product!
Description of Belkin Components F9M923-08 9-Outlet Maximum SurgeMaster
Protection for your advanced computers, peripherals, home theater, DSS systems, audio/video, phone/fax, DSL/cable modems, and moreThis Belkin SurgeMaster Maximum Series surge protector shields such equipment as computers, peripherals, home theater components, and AV devices from damage caused by electrical swells. The model boasts an impressive 2,655-joule energy rating (with a maximum spike amperage of 135,000 amps), along with nine outlets that supply complete three-line AC surge protection. As an add-on, the unit also safeguards your modem, phone, and DSL lines thanks to its solid-state phone input, in addition to protecting your cable modem and digital satellite system through its coaxial cable line and ceramic arrestor. Additional features include sliding safety covers on all nine outlets, a spoiler cord system that keeps power cords from crossing and cluttering, AC block space outlets that provide room for oversized block-style plugs, and illuminated LEDs that indicate when electric devices are ground and protected.
In addition, the SurgeMaster employs an EM and RF filter, which reduces up to 70 dB of background noise and static. The resulting signal ensures clean, crisp audio/video performance whether you're watching a movie or listening to your favorite songs. Users should have no problem finding a spot for the SurgeMaster thanks to its right-angle plug, which connects snugly against a wall and behind a couch or chair without causing problems. The surge protector is also outfitted with a 14-gauge heavy-duty power cord that measures a robust 8-feet long. As a final enticement, Belkin has included a lifetime $250,000 connected-equipment warranty.
