Maybe… but it also dips to 40 ish pretty often
Great board. Bulky as though.
This one is $39 at TGG Commercial
Yep. Unnecessarily bulky, and even though there's ample space, the sockets aren't spaced widely apart, so good luck arranging bulky plugs, especially since there's 4 + 4 (back to back) as well… this board was a pain in the ass and wouldn't fit under my entertainment unit.
Yeah the 6 port and 4 port were also reduced before Christmas. I snagged a couple. The newer ones seem to be SurgePro and the existing ones SurgeMaster/SurgePlus
These are huge but great for surfing .
Kids are after boogie boards so I’ll keep this in mind ;)
I have the 6 outlet version. Horrendously big as comented before with a lot of wasted space in my opinion.. The USB ports will charge a phone but very slowly. The reason I bought a Belkin was because I wanted something that was safe and reliable. Two years in it has achieved these goals.
Yeah my biggest issues with the Belkin one I have are the thing is huge, USB ports charge super slow and the on/off is indented so it collects dust.
Individual on off would've been nice but not a necessity.
Goes to set up kids new light from Christmas. Needs a power board. Checks ozbargain.
Thanks OP!
I've got the 6 outlet version of this which i've had for ages and it's been great. It powers my PC, monitor, speakers and stuff. It's a big powerboard but i made room for it. I bought it for the brand name and reliability.
Honestly, I have been really happy with the Click 8 Outlet board with USB-A and USB-C outlets. I bought 2 of them from Bunnings, at half the price, its really hard to beat.
I had the unfortunate opportunity to test the surge protection during the recent Brisbane storms. We had a very close lightning strike which browned out the entire house. It tripped the surge protection on many of our powerboards in the house from various brands I have collected over the years and the Click brand ones worked fine, no electronics were damaged. I had to flick the switch to reset them and they were back to normal.

This reads like a product endorsement TBH - just saying.
I have wondered how insurance companies would rule if in a lighting storm one of these "protected" power-boards failed and a connected electronic device caused a fire and forensics could trace the cause back to the power-board failure; I'm sure they would try to get out of paying out especially if forensics found an Ali Express no-name PB.
Shame it does not mention surge protection details.
What makes these so expensive? Surely a bit of copper and plastic doesn't become $40 for no reason.
They also include connected device insurance so if their powerboard fails to protect the device you can make a claim (not that I have ever needed to, they work a treat)
Only apply if you don't have content insurance.
Fark. I bought 2 of these thinking I might avoid my excess ifnitems plugged into this got fried by lightning (again).
All I saw on the website was you're not eligible if:Repair or replacement of the damaged equipment is covered under the manufacturer’s warranty
But now I see this in the actual policy:
repair or replacement of the damaged Connected Equipment is covered by a third party’s manufacturer’s warranty, a seller’s extended warranty, or your insurance policy
$44 @ Amazon
just fyi these are very annoying to open.
$44 at Amazon, the Bunnings lady kindly price beat by 10%
Use perks $10 coupon to reduce more after price match at JB 👍🏻
Got a few of these when they were $20 a few years ago.
Still using them.
WTF, I swear they used to be lifetime warranty with $50-100k protection, now just 2 yrs warranty????
I used to buy them from dick smith when they still had a storefront!
There’s a new version with usb-c. Might explain the lowering price for this model
