I am using this product to protect my computer and computer related equipment from power surges. I like the size, although it could have more weight to it so it does not tip over after everything is plugged in. But what I like about this protector is that everything plugs in from the side so no plug is covered by those annoying adapter box plugs. Good work Staples.

The design is the flaw. There are two problems. One is that it is too light, so a bulky power cord easily tips it over. The other problem is that the on/off switch is on the side, so it's easy to accidently turn off the power when you move the power strip. That is a major pain if you have a computer running, a cable modem on, etc. You will lose data, have to wait for equipment to re-boot and so on. I bought much better power strips from Staples about a year earlier. I wish those were still available. I'll look elsewhere for this type of equipment next time.

    Comments about Staples 7-Outlet 2250 Joule Surge Protector with Dataline Protection, Black:

    Needed a good surge protector in an outlet-challenged older NY apt. This covers all my needs. Very happy and feel secure now that I have a concealable surge protector and power strip for TV, audio system and even an adjacent light fixture all on the same wall. Attractive, useful, safe and just what I needed. The salesperson convinced me I needed this instead of a plain old power strip because of the electronics I wanted to plug into it. Hooray!

      The power strip works well, the one thing I found I don't like is that the on/off switch is easy to hit by accident. I have turned power off by accident a few times when grabbing the power strip to add or remove a plug. This is a minor inconvenience only an issue when moving components around.

      Comments about Staples 7-Outlet 2250 Joule Surge Protector with Dataline Protection, Black:

      Although there is more space between plugs on the surge protector, there was not enough to utilize all the slots. Also, the wall plug was not visible when I purchased it and its unusual shape became a challenge to fit in with the other plugs in the wall outlet.

      • Q:

        Does it mean the protection value is gone when the surge light is red?
        Asked on 3/13/2012 by Anonymous

        2 answers

        • CUSTOMER CARE

          A:

          A lit ‘Protected’ green LED indicates surge protection is operating normally (if it is NOT lit, it may mean a substantial surge event has occurred and the surge protector should be replaced). A lit ‘Grounded’ green LED indicates the wall outlet is properly grounded (if it is NOT lit, it means the outlet is not properly grounded and another outlet should be used to ensure full surge
          protection). When both green LED are lit it indicates normal operation and full surge protection. To place an order for this item, please contact us by dialing 1-800-333-3330.

          No the red light just indicate that there is power to the protector, not the protection is lost.

      • Q:

        with this type protector, if you have internet service through TV cable,is it possible to connect my TV cable to the cable in connection and use a phone line out to my router that only has phone line in connection? Or does Staples have an adapter that will connect to cable and plug into phone line in?

        Thank you

      • Q:

        Does this surge protector have mounting holes on the back so you can mount it under a desk or on a wall? I looked at this
        product at the store and it does not say anything about mounting on the package and of course it is in a hard plastic
        wrap so you can not open it up to look.

        1 answer

        • CUSTOMER CARE

          A:

          No, there are no screw-holes or other such mounting features molded into the back/base of the surge to mount it to the wall. We do have three other models within our Staples-brand surge assortment that do have the holes in the back for mounting. They are item 764393 (6-outlet basic surge), item 828739 (5-outlet "squid" Surge), and item 764402 (Staples 12 outlet A/V Surge).

        • VERIFIED BUYER

          A:

          If the two numbers are routed through the same line, yes. Running two phone numbers through a single line is determined by the number of connections in the wall, not the phone line itself. If you already have a two-line service through your provider, this will work fine.
