BTU Power Surge Protector Rack-Mount PDU, 12 Outlet Power Strip with Switch, Metal Mountable Heavy Duty for Server Racks, Garage Shop, Industrial Commercial (Black 6FT)

Nice

I think it looks great .I mounted it on the inside of my rack though so only I can see it .I have everything pluged into it With room to spare I even have a thermostat to turn the fans on when it gets too hot .

Excelent

Seems solid.

Put it in the back of my rack. Looks and feels great. Definitely quality material. Fit my Dell server rack perfectly.

Not much to this product, but it does exactly what it is supposed to do. Fits and works well and looks well built. Note the outlet orientation. I had some "wall wart" style power plugs that covered 3 other outlets. You may want to look for another power strip if you run into the same issue with 90 degree turned outlets, or you will need some adapters.

EDIT: Customer service did reach out to me and offered to replace the faulty unit free of charge. I asked them how I should go about sending the faulty one back and they said no need. They were very kind and made sure that I am not inconvenienced in any way. So, if you do order one and something is wrong, they will take care of you and they do all the work. A minor setback on my end but they made sure to make things right. Outstanding. I am happy with how everything was handled and I can tell you that you don't need to worry about receiving a bad product if you buy this. If something is wrong, just write a review like I did and they will make things right.One plug likes to stop working randomly and it makes sparking noises when something is plugged in to it. I just don't use that plug. It scares me when it crackles. It's the bottom middle one in the first picture. However, I have bought two of these and the first one works fine.I'm writing this review in hopes that the owner or manufacturer or whoever is in charge of selling these reaches out to me. I would return it but I need it at the moment. Maybe an error at the manufacturing place and somebody failed to make a safe and secure connection on some type of electrical component? Poor quality materials maybe? Maybe just a random mishap on this one? Either way, it's a little inconvenient as I'm using almost all of my plugs and will most likely be using more plugs in the future. Might look around at other options when I expand and need to buy another one.If customer service makes this right I would do business with them again.

The build of this surge protected, rack-mounted outlet strip looks fine from the outside.It came in a flimsy box -- not very well packed -- but it does have good mounting nuts and bolts to mount it to my equipment rack.It does deliver power and has an on-off switch. All the basic features I need working fine.Two annoyances that I consider to be very obvious design flaws or just plain poor quality control at the factory:1. The mounting hole for the ground point uses a non-standard thread -- WAY too small for something that is supposed to handle this much power (with all its outlets to power either AV or network devices in a rack). The hole itself bottomed out after 1/16", so I couldn't tighten even the tiny hard-drive mounting screw I found that has the same thread... Either I received a unit that had been returned after a previous purchaser broke the tiny screw trying to secure a ground wire to the outlet, OR the design is deficient... I ended up having to solder the ground cable to the outlet to ensure a good mechanical and electrical connection from the outlet to the ground wire. (See photo.)2. Second annoyance is that either the cover for the on-off switch is upside down, OR the outlets are aligned upside down. (See photo) This shouldn't be a problem in the long-run as I do not intend to open the switch cover very often -- if the switch cover is opened too often, the friction-closure will wear out and the cover will eventually not stay closed as it's mounted upside down. I can avoid this by turning the outlet and mounting it "upside down", but then the outlets would all have the ground opening up instead of down in the standard configuration...Both of the above are not show-stoppers, but it does give me pause as to whether I should be trusting this thing to protect expensive equipment from power surges... Three stars overall considering the pluses (basic features at reasonable price) and the minuses (design flaws that makes me lose some confidence in the product).
