I needed a power strip to organize the cords and plugs for the kitchen appliances on my counter. This strip had sufficient plugs; it is sturdily built (I did not want a long cord); and, the price was right. It also has two features which I find particularly useful: (1) It has a built in 15 amp circuit breaker. The main circuit that has my appliances on it is 15 amps, and it serves both the kitchen outlets as well as the circuits in my den that my computer and peripherals are plugged into. I had problems if I (stupidly) ran both the coffee pot and the toaster, plus the microwave, which would trip the main circuit breaker and knock out both the kitchen appliances and all my computer equipment (requiring a trip to the box in the basement). Hopefully, the built in circuit breaker in the power strip will "trip" before the main circuit breaker "trips," allowing the computer and peripherals to continue running even if the appliances don't (i.e., just reset the strip instead of the main circuit breaker); and (2) The plugs are situated sideways for grounded plugs. This provides flexibility if you have devices with AC/DC converters or other "bulky" plugs. You don't lose lose access to plugs by covering them up. I would say this is an excellent product, at a very good price, and I would recommend it. Review: Good price. - Works as advertised. Good price. ## Features - 6 grounded standard outlets Master On/Off switch for convenient control of all plugs - "Load-Protected" LED will shut off if the surge suppression circuitry is no longer functional - 15 Amp resettable circuit breaker provides overload protection - 3-year - 4-ft power cord ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00005106O | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (12) | | Date First Available | September 4, 1973 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 15.9 ounces | | Item model number | 83500 | | Manufacturer | MGE UPS SYSTEMS | | Product Dimensions | 10.98 x 2 x 1.24 inches | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Eaton - **Shape:** Rectangle - **Special Feature:** Surge Protection - **Total Power Outlets:** 6 - **Voltage:** 120 Volts ## Images ![Eaton Electrical 83500 Surge Suppressor External, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81zDXnmJk4L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Power Strip *by Z***D on November 30, 2011* This product was perfect for me, at a very nice price.

Great power strip *by G***Y on September 13, 2011* These side plug in power strips are made by Eaton Corp. (outsourced to China) and are the best I have found to date for the money. I use this type of strip for plugging in easy switches to control various music devices and each strip will hold three easy switches and the wall wart (power supply) that it shuts on and off. Inline strips just don't do it. They are sturdy and mount well using pan head screws of the correct head diameter. I bought three, but would buy more if needed. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/18795410-eaton-electrical-83500-surge-suppressor-external-black](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/18795410-eaton-electrical-83500-surge-suppressor-external-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-20*
