    I am not saying anything against it but has anyone here actually ever had gear damaged due to a surge?

      Yep, my panasonic home phones and 2 Sanyo TVs. Was not a pleasant experience as I had to go back to dick Smith to get a replacement and had to buy 2 new tvs as the tvs were out of warranty.

      • montorola on 27/09/2019 - 19:17

        Uhh were you using a powerboard and did they cover $XX,000?

          Yeah, one of this cheap 6 plug things. And no, my cheap 6 plug thing doesn’t cover shit as I probably paid $5 for it at Bunnings.

      • stickyfingers on 27/09/2019 - 20:13

        How did they know it was a surge?

          One day, all my stuff turned on. After returning home from shopping in the middle of a thunderstorm, everything that was plugged into a wall was dead except my modem which had a external surge protector on it.(still used to this day). Wished the modem died instead of the tvs. The modem was one of those crappy Huawei ones from tpg that got me .19mbps.

    • Pizdets on 27/09/2019 - 19:17

      Yes! at a telstra velocity network. No tv or internet for 2 weeks!

      Yes , about 20 years ago.
      Surely now its sorted, Theres no such thing as a surge in the UK

      More often than not your equipment is gradually damaged by poor power conditions, then eventually gives up.

    • Wiede on 27/09/2019 - 20:28

      Yep, one TV, ps4, switch, router were all destroyed from one surge.

    • Yuri Lowell on 27/09/2019 - 21:23

      Never and I live at the Gold Coast where we get some pretty intense storms. We've only lost power a few times over the years and it didn't seem to damage anything.

    • redcreek200 on 28/09/2019 - 15:21

      Yes. Lost my router.

    • Ulysses31 on 07/10/2019 - 16:56

      No related to a powerboard, but yes. Two Panasonic split systems. "The sensitive electronic boards" inside got fried.
      Power company said they'd cough up, no hesitation, but only if I lodge a claim through home & contents insurance. Chasing them to pay excess, they admitted would get hard.

    • onlinepred on 27/09/2019 - 19:02

      Fast charging on Samsung phones requires the use of Samsung's Adaptive Fast Charging protocol, which is compatible with the Quick Charge 2.0 protocol. This product does not claim to have either and clearly states that the USB ports only support charging at 2.4A. This downvote is quite unwarranted.

    I'm more worried about the spacing. Has anyone had issues of how closely spaced the outlets are?

    • warney on 27/09/2019 - 19:09

      Not great. Bought two and spacing is average

      • Jared17 on 27/09/2019 - 19:12

        Thanks. Delivery is $14.95 anyway so no go for me.

          free delivery with eBay plus

          • smartazz104 on 28/09/2019 - 13:29

            @bluggort: Weird, sellers of micro SD cards who offer eBay plus also charge $15 for delivery without plus… they must all use the same type of postage.

          • Jared17 on 30/09/2019 - 05:25

            @bluggort: I don't have eBay plus

    • Yuri Lowell on 27/09/2019 - 21:24

      They are tightly spaced together. You'll lose 2-3 plugs if you plug in a big adaptor.

      • Jared17 on 30/09/2019 - 05:24

        Thanks

    The specs look decent enough, especially for that price.

    —edit—
    Actually I just found the clamping voltage spec. It won't trigger the surge protection until it hits 1200V. The considerably more expensive Thor D1 has a clamping voltage of 275V. So you get what you pay for.

    • nfr on 27/09/2019 - 20:41

      1200V threshold doesn't seem like much protection

    • [Deactivated] on 27/09/2019 - 23:03

      Did some research, seems not a big issue as the circuit break will act within 1ns.
      And the clamping voltage is not actually the lower the better. 275v means if there was a 10% surge, you device is likely going to be shutdown unexpectedly, which might cause bigger problem than the surge itself.

      • Yuri Lowell on 27/09/2019 - 23:28

        UL quotes 330V being the lowest that they consider good too.

      • CaffeinatedTech on 28/09/2019 - 11:04
        +1

        Yeah but they don't turn off the connected equipment when the voltage exceeds the clamping voltage. That is just when the surge protector starts absorbing the excess. The energy absorption rating is how much it can handle before it fails - listed in joules. 2750 Joules for this CyberPower model, and 4588 Joules for the Thor D1. The absorption is decent enough on this particular surge protector, but it won't do anything until the voltage reaches 1200V.

        • [Deactivated] on 28/09/2019 - 11:49
          +1

          For this CyberPower model it's really triggering the circuit breaker, so it really shutdowns the equipment connected. For Thor D1, no details regarding how it it works, so cannot really compare.

          Anyway, the price of CyberPower model is less than a fragment of Thor D1. How much difference there is yet to tell.

  • spock on 27/09/2019 - 19:16

    i dont get the thing you can only by one item every ten days can anyone inlighten me please .?

    IIRC the internals are low quality and the assembly is worse.

    AFAIK CyberPower / Bosston / etc are all the same junk. I had a Bosston, opened it up, then ceased using it immediately after what I saw.

    I wouldn't dare use one of these for fear of fire hazards. I wouldn't trust it not to fry whatever was connected by USB.

    Now look, I could be wrong, this was a long time ago. These things sell like hotcakes here, so how about an ozbargainer open one up and post some pics? It's only a few easily replaced screws

    • Zazer on 28/09/2019 - 01:28

      Would really appreciate this, anyone who bought one!

      • Ulysses31 on 07/10/2019 - 17:00

        Yeah… alright. Tonight.

        We'd always like someone to do similar, but no one does.

        I came to share how happy I am, but tbh, it's Russian roulette with surge facts. I'm buying for sockets + hope.

      I have my computer hooked up to a generic white outlet
      How (profanity) am I?

      • [Deactivated] on 28/09/2019 - 11:50

        well, i guess the concerns were really regarding the usb ports?

        • Ostrk on 28/09/2019 - 13:44

          In general though, do I need something like this instead of a generic white one you get from everywhere?

          • [Deactivated] on 28/09/2019 - 15:40

            @Ostrk: Kinda. Depends on your needs. If you have routers, TVs, PCs etc. at home, this will give you an extra layer of protection.
            I got two routers fried in thunder storms so I got some APC ones, and it never happen again.
            Did not use CyberPower before, so cannot really tell whether it's good or not.

  • white3knight on 27/09/2019 - 20:18

    I saw this exactly same power board in centrecom sunshine for $29 and thats clearance lmao…good find OP

  • MrGareth on 27/09/2019 - 20:26

    Can only seem to buy one… "The seller only allows buyers to purchase 1 item every 10 days." Geeeez.

    Good find. Great price.

  • zrmx on 27/09/2019 - 22:40

    Great price even though missed it. And wow, >750 sold…

  • FareEvader on 28/09/2019 - 17:44

    Ah I missed out… is there anyway of being notified the next time that this product goes on sale?

  • jjsnacks on 03/10/2019 - 07:47

    wow this thing is terrible quality, my computer plug buzzes when plugged in, compared to a different cheaper white one i have the plugs arent "firm" pretty dodgy.

    • zintill on 05/10/2019 - 09:07

      It Buzzes for me if not plugged in correctly. The plugs are a bit stiff but hoping that should go away after some use.
