  • I test out the USB ports on a couple of Addtam power strips, then for good measure I take them apart and lecture everyone about the importance of non-$hite power strips. How fun?

    what's the downside to flimsy bus bars? just deforming over time?

    Fantastic video. Hey would you please test the:
    Multi Plug Outlet - Addtam Surge Protector Wall Mount with 12 Outlet Extender
    It feels very heavy and quality

    Is it a must that I mount it on the wall. I don't put holes in my walls.

    I'm looking for a good quality surge protector for my music studio. I have some very nice synthesizers, as well as other gear, and I want to make sure they're protected very well. I just don't want to spend an arm and leg. I have an electrician background, so I'm not afraid of wiring etc, but I'm not an electrical engineer, so I don't fully understand how a surge protector works. From what I'm seeing, why now just add a breaker and possibly fuse for extra protection, and then just wire in outlets...? Obviously, a nice aluminum box would be need as well. I have to be missing something. If what I'm saying would work the same, then I could build some very affordable, high quality surge protectors.

    Have you ever thought of reviewing those Ikea power strips? They're also all metal body but I'm wondering how cheap they might be.

      They're likely good internally considering the design of their power supplies

    I have found that IKEA USB charging eh hubs, are really good for what they are. By that I mean I hope they are.
    In general though, about power strips, I stopped buying anything that isn't APC brand any more.
    Oh come on man! I say later in some of my youtube videos. Though I admit I don't end with fuck me. :p
    Later is coooool.
    Love your videos man.

    I watched some of you videos and since everything to you is worth shit, can you at least recommend power strips and power conditioner they are actually good according to you?

      Well, I mean I'm purposely checking out stuff that looked shitty to see if there's a diamond in the rough. But more often than not it's shit as one would expect. Furman makes some good power conditioners, and I'm cool with pretty much any all-steel power strip from a reputable mfr. I know in one video I looked at a CyberPower PDU that was super impressive in its construction, so would definitely buy their stuff again.
