Energenie ENER017 Master/Slave Energy Saving 6-Gang Extension

Product Information

The Meross features two grounded, heavy duty outlets attached to a 26cm long outdoor cable that plugs into an outdoor outlet. Each Meross outlet can be controlled individually by your phone or voice, or simultaneously using the manual switch on the plug. You can’t plug in a Sky+ Box to this device as it needs to be left on at all times to save wear on the hard drive. Also do not plug in fridges, freezers or fish tanks for obvious reasons! Finally, some surge protectors are equipped with fail-to-safe conditions, also known as automatic shutdown technology and "fail to shutdown". When the surge protector experiences a surge and the arrestors reach their end of life, the device stops sending power to your devices, telling you in no uncertain terms that it's time to replace it. How to choose the best surge protector for you

Plus, you can remove the extension lead from the box at any time, if you’d rather use the four-way unit indoors. Manufacturers of surge protectors certify their devices and measure their effectiveness, giving them a rating in Joules which is the amount of energy they can filter, and also its clamp voltage, which is the threshold. Put simply, the more joules, the better protection and the longer your surge protector will do its job. This means without a couple of extension leads to hand you’re going to be running around your house maniacally plugging and unplugging like a telephone switchboard operator from the fifties. Adding external wall insulation throughout gives the extension and the rest of the home the same look, and a good render can make your home weatherproof for years. Heating the new spacesThe Kasa app lets you set schedules to turn your device on or off based on time, sunrise or sunset. You can create a timer to have something run for a set length of time (handy for a space heater) or turn something on in a set amount of time (like your electric blanket just before you sit down for dinner). What's unique about this surge protector is that each of its AC outlet - it has four - has its own switch, which should make a difference when your next energy bill comes around. To ensure the kids' safety, each also has a safety door. And though it doesn't specify its protection level, it does offer overvoltage, overcurrent. and short-circuiting protection.

It does have eight AC outlets, two on each side, and each pair has its on/off button to help save energy and help you save money on your energy bill. Plus there are three USB Type-A and one USB-C ports. The only thing is that those ports are only on one side so anyone needing access to them would have to do some sort of maneuvering, especially if there are several electronics and devices already plugged in. Another area to consider is how heat moves between your existing building and an extension. Some extensions, such as conservatories, won’t be heated and so it’s essential to ensure good draught-proofing between the heated and non-heated areas. While this ExtraStar lead surge protector doesn't say exactly how much protection it offers, this is a great option for budgeting households that doesn't have very demanding plugging needs. This is a cheap yet realiable extension cord perfect for smaller bedrooms and kitchen, especially with that 3.3ft cord - it just means you don't have a lot of cord length to put away when you're working with a tighter space. The octagonal shape means that cable distribution is much easier so that everything will look much neater and you won’t have too much cable riot going on. There are eight outlets included, two on each side, plus three USB ports on top right below the power button. You do have the choice of either three USB Type-A or two USB Type-A and one USB-C port, which is nice, and it has four non-slip feet for a secure base. Plus you can choose the length of cable: two, three, five and 10 meters.This stands for Ingress Protection and as a rule of thumb if you’re looking for a waterproof extension lead it has to be at least IP54 rated so that it’s watertight. Anything higher than this will have even more protection. Do extension leads need surge protection? An 'Away' mode randomly turn plugs on and off during a set period of time – ideal for using with lamps and perhaps a radio when you’re on your hols. Plus, it also has a handy runtime report so you can see how long the device was used for.

And it has light indicators to indicate that the surge and ground protection are working, giving you that extra peace of mind.
