Using this just over a year. Got 6-7 things plugged into it, like an irresponsible homeowner should. Been flawless.

You're working your way up, but you're still playing on the JV team— UNLESS those 6-7 "things" you have plugged into it are other power/surge strips, also filled. I've seen it.Of course the end goal is going to be infinite fractalization— this is what we call it in the burn unit here… you have a surge strip… and every plug leads to an additional surge strip. Now each of those surge strips are all filled with surge strips… ad infinitum.The math goes parabolic pretty quickly, as does your electrical bill, homeowners insurance and risk of becoming a human rotisserie chicken in the next 24-48 hours.But man… if you want to know what it feels like to LIVE… and likely die— go to sleep every night with your surge protector pulling 1,800 amps. It's fkn thrilling to know you have a very low chance of having skin when you go to work the next morning.Last time I gave it a go my breaker tripped so hard it broke a hip. So I just ended up taking the damn thing out.

If this isn't on the packaging for this product then Anker are a bunch of fools. In for an infinite number!
