5.0 out of 5 stars Sort out your blocks, July 19, 2000

APC (which by the way is American Power Conversion, not "American Power Conservation" as amazon.com currently shows it) has always been serious about clean power. This is no ordinary surge protector. It has more heavy-duty protection features and absorbs more joules of surge energy than you're ever likely to see. But what I like is the intelligent layout of the outlets ... with my ADSL modem, I now have three huge "wall warts" to deal with. The PRO8T2 handles them well, and manages another smaller one in the top tier of outlets. A large green light lets me know it's working. And the switch guard is removable -- if you WANT to be able to turn this unit on and off with your toe, APC made that possible, and they call out the feature in the instructions. You can spend $20 for a much less capable power station, or a few bucks more for one that will take care of your stuff. APC delivers the latter with this unit.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Surge Protector for your Money!, June 23, 2000

I bought one last month and it works fine, so now I am buying another 8 for my PC network. This surge protector is well designed so that your ac adapters won't hog up other open sockets.

Recommendation: Strong Buy

3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but does NOT have two "always on" outlets, August 26, 2008

I ordered this surge protector mainly because the description on Amazon's site (at least at the time) said that it has two "always on" outlets, and the others can be turned off at the switch. I really like the layout of the outlets and the space it has for so many plugs, and I like that it has a light that shows you if something's wrong with the wall outlet you're plugging it into, but it does NOT have the always on outlets. I will keep the surge protector because it's a good one, but will be looking for another one that does what I hoped this one would.
