I had a lightning strike nearby. Many things in the house were damaged, including items plugged into an APC surge protector. APC reluctantly agreed to receive the unit for testing under the warranty program. They said if I tried to do my own testing first it would void the warranty. So, the only way to use the warranty is to trust that they will give you the truth when they test your unit behind closed doors. I was not surprised when the mailed me back and said the damage was not covered by the warranty.

Another info determining the effectiveness of surge protectors.

Clamping Voltage rating: (from the internet)

APC P11U2MP10: (updated)
Line to Neutral - 400 V
Line to Ground - 500 V
Neutral to Ground - 500 V

Belkin SRA09: (updated)
Line to Neutral - 400 V
Line to Ground - 500 V
Neutral to Ground - 500 V

Source 1
Clamping voltage is the voltage at which a surge begins to work by conducting electricity to the ground line. A lower clamping voltage indicates better protection, but a shorter life expectancy.

Source 2
Clamping voltage is the voltage that will cause the MOV to conduct electricity to the ground line. A lower clamping voltage indicates better protection. There are three levels of protection in the UL rating, 330V, 400V, and 500V. Generally, a clamping voltage more than 400V is too high.

Source 3
The lower the (clamping) voltage, the better the protection. It doesn't matter how many joules your surge protector has. If it has a high clamping voltage, even a small power surge can still damage your devices.

APC P11U2MP10
• 2880 joules
• Lifetime warranty
• Lead, mercury free

Belkin SRA09
• 3940 joules
• 2-year warranty
• 12 AC outlets

Personally, I prefer the APC design and form factor. I also like the more durable sturdy appearance.
However, Belkin does have a more elegant look and less industrial appearance.

I believe I've owned both, no issues with either - but I think my electrical environment is relatively benign as far as surges, certainly weather-related surges.

The Belkin has an additional outlet, a higher joule rating and a greater connected equipment coverage.

APC has two USB charging ports - although my experience is those don't always work as expected - if a device came with its own charger, I always use that rather than these generic charging ports.

I have 3 of these APC ones with no complaints after 5 years. I have used APC UPSs in countless enterprise environments with no real complaints.

The APC also has a life time warranty, rather trust them considering the warranty and the fact they specialize in power/batteries while belkin is more phone accessories power strips etc.

Note, this model was Discontinued on:Feb 14, 2024. Not sure specifically how APC does it but most network equipment, lifetime means lifetime of the product which is on average 3 years after the end of life/sale date. I can't find anything that details this from APC but if you care def research it.


I don't protect anything that needs probing into joules over 2k/clamping voltage though

i finally ordered Belkin,consider Joule. As i googled, higher joule ls first to check.

higher joule, the better protection.. 3000+ is suggested for sensitive equipments like computers, laptops, TV etc.. so my primary use is for laptops/tv's.

so apc does not fit here, though it has other benefitts.

i also ordered Amazon basics couple of them (6 outlets) which is also 4000+ Joule to protect other TV's/equipment in other part of the house.

just sharing my thoughts, correct me, if you have a different view points.

I've used that Belkin for many years now handling everything in the entertainment center and it's done great, surviving many power outages and flickers (no direct hits, to my knowledge)

the layout of the outlets is great as well, allowing different shapes and sizes of plugs.

Whenever I have to take a trip into Narnia of Cables it's never been a problem to find the outlets blindly.

Good luck claiming that lifetime warranty. You have to prove it was the fault of their surge protector. Even when you can prove it, you also have to prove that it didn't exceed the protection. In other words, if you get hit by lightning and it frys your devices, they're not liable.

Thanks. Got one.

I paid $14.80 in 2022 for the Amazon Basics 4,320 Joule.

This one is not pretty but you get it for the specs. (Made by APC for Amazon label)

Four transformer-spaced outlets vs. six.

Straight plug vs. right-angle.
