The low price and speedy delivery are bonus features that make this product an excellent value.Peace.Slik The Power Strip Liberator is perfect for freeing up those over-used power strip and surge-protector sockets --- the "piggy-back" feature adds capacity while allowing plenty of room for those bulky transformers that seem to be used with just about everything --- including printers, cable modems, routers, cordless telephones, and even some computer stereo systems.Be advised that these units are for LIGHT DUTY ONLY, and must not be used to connect motorized appliances such as refrigerators, washing machines, room air conditioners, or any equipment that will draw more than 7.5 amps.I was able to use 3 Power Strip Liberators to hook up 3 of those bulky transformers while leaving several sockets of the surge protector available for my computer and it's other peripherals.A low-cost solution to the problem of clutter and congestion, I highly recommend this product.
Is essential to have this short extension cord when measuring electrical values (Amp, Watts, VoltAmperes) with instruments ( such as KillAWatt instrument) that are intended to be used plugged into electrical sockets on the wall or on Surge Protectors. This extension cord came well packaged and in perfect condition.
It works well, and I recommend it for the purpose. These are good quality power strip extenders, offering a a power outlet on a short cord, as well as one on the back side of the plug itself. For some reason, the review process believed that the power strip liberator was a toy, and asked such things as 'how fun is this toy.'. Well, sadly, not very fun for a toy, but a perfectly good short extension cord.
Not much else to say about it, except it is NOT a toy. The product is sturdily made and works. I don't know why Amazon asks me these stupid questions like, "how much fun is this toy" and "how would I rate this toy's educational value." For one thing, it isn't a toy, it's just a simple but practical extension plug that allows you to use a power block on a power strip and not use more than one plug space. I guess it is educational in that if you put your finger in the socket while the other side is plugged in, you will learn something very quickly that you can hopefully live to tell your grandchildren about.
Kill-a-Watt is rated 15 amps (1875 VA) and this cord is smaller, about 1/2 the amount of the Kill-a-Watt. To avoid over-heating this cord be sure not to use with refrigerator, washer, dryer, air conditioner or other large power using appliance. We want you to be safe and avoid the classic "extension cord fire" from over-heating a cord. Kill-a-Watt Caution. I checked with the shipper and this cord has a lower power rating than the Kill-a-Watt you may be using it with.
