5.0 out of 5 stars Protect It 6 Out Surge, February 18, 2007

By	Perry M. Ruby Jr. "Archbishop Mark" (Port Charlotte, FL, USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This sits under my monitor and provides an up close and easy way to turn on my system. I can selectively turn off parts of the system such as printers and speakers while leaving the computer and monitor in the on state. It also provides additional electrical surge protection which is needed here in Florida with our ligtening storms. Highly recommended, and it is an excellent value.

5.0 out of 5 stars Protection + convenience, April 10, 2007

By	James R. Castonguay (Whitinsville, MA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Tripp Lite TMC-6 6-Outlet Under Monitor Surge Protector (1850 Joules, Tel/DSL) (Electronics)

These under the monitor type surge protectors are great and I am surprised that there aren't more of them. Why have a rat's nest of wires hanging in the back of your computer desk?? This organizes, neatens and allows you to turn off individual components without shutting down everything. In my case, I can shut off my monitor, computer, printer and speakers while allowing the cable modem and router to run for my wife and daughter to access the internet with their laptops. This model replaced an older Surgemaster that I had for 4 years and the reason for the change was due to more power demands by my system and peripherals. This one @ 1850 joules powers my 19" LCD, Athlon 4200+ X2 dual core, 512mb Radeon 1950 XT, Antec 580 Watt Power Supply, RAID array, 12 fans, modem, router, desk lamp, Lexmark all in one flatbed printer/scanner, Logitech cordless keyboard and rechargeable laser mouse, Logitech 5.1 surround speakers.........etc. More power to spare...ugh, ugh, ugh, MORE POWER!!!!!! Love it!!

This review is from: Tripp Lite TMC-6 6-Outlet Under Monitor Surge Protector (1850 Joules, Tel/DSL) (Electronics)

I got this to replace a very old (and dying) under-monitor power box. This one was really the only one that fit my needs. Black, built-in surge suppressor, etc. Works like a charm.

Only complaint is that the master switch controls both the entire unit, and it's own plug (would have liked a seperate button).

Good buy though! Looks good too.
