Amazing protection for EVERYTHING!   June 26, 2002

The TLP810net has all the protection I need at an astonshing 2518 joule rating (higher joules=greater protection from surges). I plugged in my DSL modem, TV, and phone line on the RJ11 jacks, ethernet and coax outlets. And I could even plug in 3 bulky transformer plugs without blocking any of the 5 other outlets! What makes this product even better is the low price and the great insurance rating ($100,000 insurance on connected equipment)! I shop around, this is my 3rd Tripp Lite product and they are by far the best value and protection available!


It really works!   April 1, 2007

Bought one for my Dad for his computer a while back. Lightening hit a tree next to his house and a fork jumped to his roof (blew a bunch of shingles off). It ruined his TV, phone, a couple of radios and a bunch of lights. Ruined the surge protector too but it did its job, his computer was fine. Tripp Lite replaced the surge protector for free. A great product.

I really did look around and unless you're looking for something that does line conditioning (making sure the voltage is constant), this is the choice for you. A real line conditioner gets you up to $100+.

Pros:

Black (white looks dirty after a while)
Room for bulky transformers (de rigeur at this point) ***
Good brandname - we use this brand for top of the line computer equipment.

Cons:

Does anybody really use the coax or the phone or the ethernet protectors? My theory is that coax goes to the cable box (not mine) and that ether/phone couldn't carry a surge big enough to kill the modem (not mine either). I'd like to not have the extra space consumed by these jacks but presumably somebody wants this protection. Not really a con since some people probably use this.

If there's an engineer out there - people would definitely buy a surge protector that had a non-plastic cord. The high end braided/cloth cords (I presume they're made out of some sort of resin) are so much better. I see them on high end audio cables but rarely electric cabling. Surely, such a thing could be made and it would be much better than stiff plastic.


Cable modem/computer surge protection   November 10, 2006

After being zapped twice during electric storms and loosing the cable modem and the computer input port, the Tripp Lite Surge Portector (TLP810NET) has given the required protection and has functioned just great.
