BELKIN F9H220-TVL-DL 2 Outlets 540 joule Travel Surge Protector with Hidden Swivel Plug

Pros: Does what it is supposed to do.

Cons: None.

Pros: Not a bad deal for portable surge protector for travel.

Cons: Item arrived appearing to be used. There were noticeable scratches all around the device. This should have refurbished or used in the product title or description.

Other Thoughts: This should have refurbished or used in the product title or description.

I used a coupon code for this. Now it's $3 lower without coupon.

Pros: Compact and easy to travel with; does its job.

Cons: Won't get me another beer.

Other Thoughts: Got this for $5.49 on supermegahappy discount! Thanks Newegg!

Pros: Great price and great service from Newegg.

Cons: Ordered 4 of these;
- Two worked fine
- One could not complete hide the swivel plug
- One other cause a FLASH and SMOKED when it was plugged into another (main) surge suppressor outlet for testing! I immediately shut off the main surge suppressor.

After a while later, I plugged the Belkin F9H220-TVL-DL back in and the red light (indicating protection) was not lit (but the green light indicating power was on).

Thank goodness other devices plugged into the main surge suppressor were fine.

Newegg was great in helping my replace the two defective ones.

Other Thoughts: Came in OEM-type packaging.

Pros: Works as advertised.

Cons: None.

Pros: It works.

Cons: First time I received something from Newegg which looks used although not advertised as so. And I have been buing stuff here for more than 10 years... hopefully that's just an accident.

Other Thoughts: Item is scratched, has visible signs on sides (where you grab it to either plug it or unplug), but someone put brand new product info labels on it.
It is a surge protector (in theory), so, I am happy that it works and I paid $5.99 for it, but who knows whether old item any longer protects from any surges....

Pros: It's very small and unobtrusive.

Cons: My unit worked for roughly 40 days before completely freaking out.

I unplugged it yesterday to untangle all the cords leading into it, and when I plugged it all back in the phone jacks no longer worked. I tried to continue using it for the router and modem, but the router would completely stop working within 30 minutes no matter what I did to troubleshoot it. I finally took it out of this surge protector and plugged it directly into the wall, and it's been fine for 12 hours.

This thing lasted a whole month and a half before failing in response to a freaking power cycle.

Other Thoughts: If you want a surge protector with no manufacturer warranty that will fail within 60 days for no reason other than being unplugged for a few minutes, then buy it up. Otherwise, save your money.

Pros: works very well plus you get an equipment warranty to cover any losses from surges

Cons: N/A

Pros: Surge protector works great. I couldn't tell from the picture and reviews whether it surge protected ethernet cables as well, and it does.

Cons: May be more expensive than a regular surge protector and not have as many ports, but the protability and protection of ethernet is worth it.

Pros: Compact in size and I like the retractable plug

Cons: None
