Product Description

From the Manufacturer

For years, people have trusted their computer system's performance to plug strips that offer very little performance value. These plug strips, essentially extension cords with additional outlets, tout great surge protection as the only necessary factor in connected equipment performance. The fact is, data loss, corrupted files, keyboard lockup, and the hassle of re-installing programs are often symptoms of polluted AC power - not surges or spikes. "Dirty" AC power is caused by electromagnetic and radio frequency interference generated by any household appliance sharing the same power line with your connected computer equipment. Your computer peripherals also generate their own kind of noise, adding even more "pollution." AC power line noise can degrade computer and peripheral performance as much or more than power surges and voltage spikes. Monster's Clean Power Stage 1 Circuitry filters out power pollution for maximum computer and peripheral performance. Designed by world renown AC power expert Richard Marsh, Monster's Clean Power uses optimized filters to dramatically reduce electronic noise on your AC power line. The radio frequency and electromagnetic interference on the AC power line that once threatened to corrupt files, cause data loss, and system crashes is totally rejected so your computer and peripherals can do what they do best...perform. PC800 HP also features Monster's exclusive SurgeGuard circuitry, which provides multiple layers of defense against harmful surges. Strategically placed multiple Metal Oxide Varasitors (MOV's) respond within one nanosecond (a billionth of a second) to power surges and voltage spikes before they can reach and damage sensitive electronic circuitry, for the highest possible surge protection. Monster PowerCenters maximize user convenience. Monster's FlatProfile plug lets you push your furniture flush against the wall. And, with color-coded outlets and cord labels, you can avoid unplugging your computer by mistake, causing potentially catastrophic data loss. A generous eight-foot Monster power cord provides optimum length to reach most electrical outlets and delivers maximum high current power transfer. Maximize your system's protection. Now you can get protection from harmful surges, voltage spikes and inconvenience! Monster's PowerCenters offer high performance solutions to today's technology challenges.

5.0 out of 5 stars WOW! Solid construction, almost overkill., July 19, 2006
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Monster Cable Computer PowerCenter PC 800 HP with Clean Power Stage 1 (Electronics)
I mainly bought this for its reliability, # of outlets and (most of all) the CleanPower feature. Funky / dirty AC power is one of the leading causes of shortened life expectancy for electronics. Some things I noticed:

Yes, it is plastic, but it has that good, thick plastic feel, NOT the cheap thin stuff that seems like it would crack when dropped.

It can be hung in virtually any direction (horiz, diag, vert) from two screws/nails by two plus-sign (+) hole patterns on the back of the unit.

The cord is long and thick. The plug is a wall-hugging 90-degree angle type that can be used in either the top or bottom outlet receptacle. Huh? It is not only wall-hugging but it doesnt hang straight down from the receptacle - imagine you plugged this into a clock face: the plug would be angled toward the "4" or "5" on the face so that you aren't limited to plugging it in the bottom plug. You could actually have two of these plugged into the same outlet. Enough about that...

The plug connectors are REALLY tight fitting. You'll see what I mean when you go to plug in the computer or whatever. ALL Monster outlets are this way, and are intended to help keep the plug from falling out or being ripped out by accident. Another way Monster Cable thinks about the small things that bug us.

Mine came with a phone cable that was a couple feet (or so) in length. Cool, now I can plug the fax through the connectors on the unit. (Nothing to report there.)

The power switch lights up in red.

Comes with labels to help indentify BOTH ends of the power cabes you are plugging in.

The three "transformer" positions are great for those old box plugs for the cameras and such. Plenty of room built in.

I HIGHLY recommend this unit for your computer!

5.0 out of 5 stars Massive Surge, February 2, 2008
By 
S. Prince "photofreak" (Seiad Valley, ca United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Monster Cable Computer PowerCenter PC 800 HP with Clean Power Stage 1 (Electronics)
I had a Monster MP PC700 protecting my PC, monitor, printer and DSL modem. On the 30th of January 2008 suffered a massive surge, three surges in 2 seconds. The above surge protector saved my equipment! Also, it did not catch fire or explode. My Power Sentry 322 and every other protector in my house did pop loudly and/or shoot fire!

I kissed the the Monster when I was able to restart my PC! Now buying this 800 and several other Monster Cable products.

I'm sold for LIFE!

This review is from: Monster Cable Computer PowerCenter PC 800 HP with Clean Power Stage 1 (Electronics)
I have 4 of these now plus two older monster strips. Haven't fried anything plugged into any of these while 3 or less years old. Like the thick cords. My house tends to have a high mortality on cheap power supplies (electric shavers, aftermarket phone chargers, external hard drives etc..), but they don't seem to fry plugged into these things.
