Title: Under monitor power strip with individual switches
Post by: ArcadeNerd on April 07, 2013, 12:02:30 pm
I missed a sale on 1saleaday for an under monitor power strip surge protector which would be perfect for my games.  Since then I have been scouring the internet trying to find them but to no avail (I can't find a way to look at previous days deals on the site either).

Does anyone know anywhere to buy these.  I see an individual switched power strip on Newegg from Roswell but it isn't the flat under monitor type.  Does anyone know at least what brand the one on 1sale a day was (looks lie maybe APC) or the exact model possibly?

Thanks!

Not the under monitor type http://www.amazon.com/American-Pc-100A-Mount-Power-Switcher/dp/B0002GL50Q (http://www.amazon.com/American-Pc-100A-Mount-Power-Switcher/dp/B0002GL50Q) but 8 switched outlets is pretty nifty.


good day.

Yeah, I have seen those DJ racks and I guess i could go with that if I can't find those other power strips.  It would be nice to have surge protection.  I know they have a "breaker" but not sure if that would do the trick.  Thanks.

Sounds like you want one of these (http://www.amazon.com/Tripp-Lite-TMC-6-Protector-Monitor/dp/B0000AKA90).

That's pretty darn close but I like the ones with the rocker switches better.  Gonna be tough deciding between the push button one like that one or the rocker switches on a more traditional power strip and not flat like the under monitor ones.  I want my cake and I want to eat it too :)

Thanks, I may go with that one if I can't find the perfect combo like the one I missed during that sale.
