This is the power strip I have under my desk

I love having these, but two things to worry about.

  1. This is NOT a surge protector. Don’t treat it like one and you’ll be fine. (you can plug it INTO a surge protector, which is what we did in the lab where I work)

  2. Note that if you plug a bunch of high-current devices into this thing it will overload the circuit you’ve plugged into-- the Circuit Breaker on it should help in this regard, but you should still be careful.
