CRST 6-Outlet Heavy Duty Metal Power Strip with Individual Switches, 15AMP/1875W Surge Protector Power Strip(1200 Joules) for Home Garage Office Kitchen School, 6FT 14AWG Cord (Yellow)

8-27-22 UPDATE, the switched outlet strip has been in use for over a year and a half, with no issues at all. It feeds power to several network devices (NAS, Switch, POE injector, work light, and sometimes test devices) and just plain works.2-11-21IS6A450 type 3SPD Yellow 6 switched outlet Power strip 1200 Joules 14AWG 6ft cordmeasured size 13 7/8"L 2 1/2"W 1 5/8"HIntended purpose: homemade network cabinet switched power for a network switch, NAS, other network devices.I just received the Yellow CRST Power Strip and put it to use for a test. Plugged in several computer devices and lights to each outlet jack and flipped the power switch for each outlet.First Impressions:Housing: is aluminum seems solid enough, rivets keep it together, so if you want to modify or fix later shouldn't be too hard to drill out the rivet and do the repair.Power Cord: The cord seems adequate, heavy enough, not sure about the 3 prong angled plug, feels and looks lesser quality than the cord or body of the power strip. Time will tell. Easy enough to replace if it fails.Outlet jacks: They are mounted tightly into the housing and no device or power plug had a problem fitting and each was a tight secure fit.Power Switches: This is the weakest part of the GRST Power Strip, the switches feel flimsy and have a float feel when switching on/off. Time will tell if they last. However, being a metal housing it will be easy to replace the switch with better ones.Wall mount holes: One is located on each end of the power strip in the black plastic part of the housing.I like the little green light, you know instantly if you have power to the power strip before you turn on the main power switch. Further, it indicates the protective circuits are operating.The power strip isn't too big and the spacing between outlet jacks is 11/16", so most device plugs should fit. I think they could have made it an inch shorter without changing the spacing, which would fit my application better, but 13 7/8"L isn't that bad.I am looking forward to finishing the network cabinet and putting this power strip in its new home and using it for years trouble-free.4 stars due to the flimsy switches and lightweight plug.I will update this review after it's installed and used for a couple of months.

I purchased this product specifically for a charging station that I constructed, and it has fulfilled my requirements admirably. Equipped with six individual switches and a master switch, it grants me the flexibility to toggle each piece of equipment on or off independently, resulting in energy and cost savings. Moreover, the outlets are intentionally designed with ample spacing, accommodating various plug sizes without obstructing one another. These sought-after features are rarely found in products of such affordable pricing.In terms of performance, I am thoroughly impressed. The ability to independently control each socket brings me a sense of safety and security. Furthermore, the product is built with a sturdy construction, ensuring its durability and longevity. The quality of the item exceeds expectations.As a result, the positive outcome has generated an increased demand for similar charging stations from others. Consequently, I plan to order more units to fulfill these requests.

The biggest advantage to this power strip is that it has individual switches for each outlet, and the additional USB ports with its own switch. The casing is very sturdy.

I use this power bar to charge all my tools in my "charger station", where individual switches, lights and surge protector are very useful. I love the color of this power bar. It adds a nice splash of color to the room so you may not even want to hide it. Each outlet has its own switch that lights up when turned on. They look like incandescent lights. When I received this, one of the switch lights did not work. The seller sent a replacement the next day, and that worked perfectly! The casing is made of metal, which feels very sturdy and does not flop around. The paint job is also good quality. The main power cable is very thick and good quality.Overall, this is a great unit with sturdy construction and looks pretty, but hope the switch lights will not burn out soon. I would definitely buy this again.

I like the look. Seems sturdy. Working fine. I like the individual switches.The reason it is 4 stars is the attachment slot/holes are the hidden kind and the screws are TINY. Look for something different if you are mounting vertically or need a sturdy install so you don't have to use 2 hands to unplug a plug.

I wanted a surge protector that wasn't the flimsy plastic stuff that had individual switches, lighted to know when they were on, a quality cord, quality outlets that plug wouldn't slip out and the USB power options. This fit the bill all the way around and is solid. It worked perfectly for a year and one of the lights went out that was key for on/off. Vendor support was superb, immediate response, and went beyond the cause to help us with the faulty switch of the ones we've purchased. As you can see from my reviews, I call it as I see it and this was easily one of the best purchases I've made here.Sturdiness and cord length is excellent. Not sure why I'm asked to rate travel but I'd say this would certainly be durable on the road. It's solid metal.

Fantastic.,.. you can turn things on and have a light to know it's on ...

The metal lets it lay flat on floor, which I love, so tired of the plastic ones that flip over and don’t stay in place very well. Recommend this product. Also like that it puts space between out lets, so they are not cramed, this is a big plus.
