Pro Elec 2816NS(1N) 5 m 5 m 6 Way Individually Switched Surge Protected Extension Lead, White

What I liked about the extension lead is the individual switches, which with the price of energy just now is invaluable. It allows you to switch off the equipment that nowadays remain on standby drawing power, all be it a small amount of power. It all mounts up, so is a handy thing to have.

This is a sturdy unit. Works well.

I liked the sockets in a rectangle tray...the buttons (switchers) not all are firmly placed in position they are a bit wobly but still doing the job. Design wise would have been a good idea if they placed a thin red line going across the centre of the tray (dividing one row of sockets from the other). That would help people navegate better the switchers (on off position) all switchers resting towards the red mid line we would know they were off. Without the line we have to memorize, get used to it basically.

Working fine so far (I've bought more than one and not had any problems). However, on the 6-plug version, with 3 sockets facing another 3 sockets, the sockets are too close together, so any plug that is above average size, or has the cable coming out of the top instead of the bottom of the plug - like an increasing amount of electronic device plugs - will not fit unless the opposite socket is empty.

Well made powerboard. Easy to use switches. Useful long lead.

Good value for money and as described. Does the job it's supposed to.

Great for job it was needed for

Good price. The cabling is good and the box seems ok however, the switches are a bit flimsy. I'm only using it for low voltage so will be ok. I always check the connections on a plug if possible. Good job dI did here. All three wires were loose. Apart from that this seems ok for the price.
