I bought this from Amazon.com, and am impressed with it. I think a good bit of thought went into the design, and some of the technical specs are, to my uneducated eye, pretty impressive.
Clamping voltage: 115-230V
Surge Protection.: 4,000 Joules (!)
Maximum Wattage: 1875 Watts
I like the way they laid it out so I can plug in six wall-warts at the same time, and still have six plugs available for regular cords.
The USB ports are "smart" and will charge my iPod shuffle, which usually only charges when plugged into a computer. An Amazon Kindle dongle, for instance, won't charge the iPod.
I can only think of two changes I might make, one of them silly overkill, the other would cost them nothing.
1) There's room there, why not make it six USB ports instead of three?
2) Change the wall plug to one of those 90° wall-hugging plugs so it could be plugged in behind a nightstand.
I'm also impressed that the manufacturer quickly replied to every question or complaint in the Amazon Reviews and Questions.
I know, this is not some super-high-technology breakthrough, but I thought it was nicely thought out and useful.
