However, the joy was short-lived over the bar. After only two days, they said goodbye. It flashed and crackled. I can be glad that my computer is not broke. The power strip is not designed for so many devices and a security risk. Just imagine, the bar is blowing, if you are not at home! I was lucky that I had just sat in the office and was able to prevent the worst. I'm going to now define a product from another manufacturer. Something I find that even products that have been tested and found to have good, sometimes no good. This makes the choice any easier.
