This review is from: VCT - 220V/240V AC 13A Universal Power Strip / Surge Protector with 6 Universal Outlets. 50Hz/60Hz - 450 Joules. CE Certified. Max. 4000 Watt Capacity - Heavy Duty European Cord (Misc.)

So far, I've used this strip in two countries, New Zealand, and New Caledonia. The later uses the EU standard. New Zealand, like the country has to be different. This strip has performed well during this trip. It weighs next to nothing and the plugs really are universal. I carry it with my laptop. Others have borrowed it using their own unique plug type. My original surge protector consisted of an eight pound transformer and an unprotected power strip. This is such an improvement.

The only negative I have is that the US 2-prong plug tends to be a little loose in the outlet. This is not a serious problem though just a thought worth mentioning. It may be advisable to use a 3-prong US outlet when possible to reduce the risk of arc at 220 or 240 VAC.

Thanks.

I took a trip across Europe, and this power bar was worth its weight in gold! I was able to charge my phone, camera, and video camera every night on my 18 day tour. It made my life very easy, as many of the hotels only had one plug. I am very happy with my purchase.

I am currently spending a semester abroad, and this power strip has been a life saver! I didn't have to worry about finding adapters for all of my electronics, they all fit nicely into this one power strip. There are only three outlets in my room between me and my roommate so I don't have to fight with her for outlet space! The other students with me are all jealous they don't have one! I like that it is wired with a European plug, so I didn't have to use an adapter for the plug itself. Most of the ones I found online accepted all plugs like this one, but were wired for an American plug. This power-strip is fantastic. It fits snugly in the outlet, and I only had it spark once when I plugged my computer in, (always plug the power in first before plugging in your computer!)
