Masterplug Eight Socket Surge Protected Extension Lead, 2 Metres, White

I buy surge protected extension leads whenever I am going to be connecting sensitive electronic devices (TV, PC etc) because the risk to those devices is greater with a sudden electrical spike. Don't worry I am not about to get all geeky and explain why these are good for devices like the above! :) Now, for most of us nowadays, we have more devices than plug sockets available when it comes to the television and associated devices. In my case there is this little lot... Television, Sky box (other brands are available), Blu-ray player (yes I am officially old), Fire Stick, Soundbar, Subwoofer (for soundbar). All that and 2 sockets? Yep extension lead is needed! Extension leads are safe, as long as the combined load of the devices in use does not exceed 13 amps (standard safe load on a single plug socket) and thankfully most modern electronic devices do not draw much current (which gives the load). In my case this lot won't exceed 13 amps - unless of course I did something completely daft like plug an iron on to the extension lead and use it at the same time! :) There is not a lot more to add really. It is clearly well made by a known and respected brand, which considering the value of the attached equipment is important to me. In summary, if you need an extension lead for lots of items - probably the same use as mine - then you won't go wrong with this one.

This remote ''on / off'' invention, is FANTASTIC !! Your television, lamps, heating fan, cooling fan, KETTLE !! the list is endless. When they are plugged into this special device, you can turn them on and off from the comfort of your BED !! This includes devices in the NEXT ROOM, or even DOWNSTAIRS. Remote will '''reach'' electric appliances up to NINETY FEET AWAY. I am so keen on this astonishing device, this it the SECOND ONE I'VE BOUGHT, as a standby, just in case (heaven forfend !!) something should go wrong with the FIRST ONE I bought. Which, bye the bye, has worked perfectly for three years !!! I I wrote an excellent review on this marvellous product, which AMAZON REFUSED TO POST., as t didn't follow THE GUIDELINES apparently. Well, Amazon, you are as THICK AS THREE SHORT PLANKS nailed together. and THAT is my review of YOU !!!

Paid £14.29 which seems good value, works well. If you have a lot of plug-top power supplies you may be better off with a single row of sockets as it may not be possible to plug in two of these opposite each other depending on the cable orientation of the plug-top power supply.

This is a great adapter unit if all the plugs you're plugging in are of the standard variety but of course if they are power adapters for phones and laptops etc, the plugs are not necessarily all the standard size and for those, you find the sockets are too close to eachother. In hindsight I would have been better off buying a vertical unit that has space either side for sockets of different sizes.

Be aware - I needed 8 plugs hence my purchase of this product - but I failed to realise that not all my plugs are the same size one of the plugs is much larger than all the other and it covers the opposite socket so much so I can not use the eighth socket - but as this fits the space I have I can live with 7 I am happy to say this is a great product but keep this in mind

Arrived next day absolutely brilliant, looks ok for the job, works as expected but still only week old so no longevity tested as well surge protection thankfully has not been subjected to a test yet so can not comment. The reason for a 4 for sturdiness is because they seem to me to of light construction so do not know how long they will last, there again they just sit on the desk sides not being moved around so in theory should last for years but time will tell

This is brilliant. Perfect for my needs. I have a PC workstation with several HDDs, printers etc and need 9 plug sockets. This one has 10 and is surge protected and compact. Amazing value for money and is nice and sturdy.

I can tell it does what is meant to do. I like this product, I am using it to plug all electrics from the living room (TV, Sat Box, telephone, Blue Ray, etc) and it works as expected. However it has a small disadvantage as space between sockets is limited; you might lose a socket connection if you try to plug those chunky old fashion rectangular plugs, so be aware of that!
