When the Inland Power Strip Fits — Budget-Conscious Surge

Pick the Inland surge protector when:

• The application calls for non-critical surge protection for desktop or shelf-mounted devices that don’t need battery backup
• A larger outlet count (12) is needed than typical 6-outlet strips provide
• USB charging is desired alongside the AC outlets (phones, tablets, USB-powered cameras / sensors)
• EMI/RFI noise filtering is preferred for clean power on networked / audio equipment
• The project budget benefits from the more economical Micro Center house brand price point vs. brand-name surge protectors

For protected loads that need battery backup in addition to surge protection, step up to a UPS:

• APC BE650G1 — 650 VA / 390 W entry-level UPS
• UltraTech 0E-1500V10RD — 1500 VA mini-tower
• UltraTech 0E-RCKMT1500 / 0E-RCKMT2200 — rack-mount UPS
