If I had any qualms about this product being that I am not remotely electrically talented, it would be that somehow it has surge protection also

Nevertheless, I returned mine because I thought the description implied they offered surge protection, but they don't.

TLP76MSG, shipped and sold by Amazon for $24.49 with "free" shipping, surge protection, 7 outlets and free $25000 insurance

Another nice feature would be one of those surge-protection indicators, but it's not really rated for that - think of this as more of a selectable switch bank, not a surge protector

The surge protection hasn't come into play

I think every home with access to electricity can greatly benefit from this Rosewill RPS-200 which offers "no surge protection"

Only wish it had power surge protection

And since the UPS will provide surge protection this power strip does not need to do the same when it is plugged into the UPS.

like the option of turning my electronics off when convenientwish the strip had surge protection

It is become harder to find power strips without Surge Protection

It is power strip but missing Surge Protection .

On sensitive electronics, I still use power strips with adequate surge protection, but these work out nicely for specific tasks.

As pointed out by other reviewers, these do not have surge protection.
