Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Monster MP OTG400 BK Outlets To Go 4 Outlet Travel Power Strip (Black)
Customer Review: Not Good for the International Traveler
Summary: 3 Stars
This is a decent portable power strip. It's robust, sturdy and rather elegant. However if I only read the reviews I would have known that this is not suitable for an International Road Warriors as the electrical rating is only: 10A 125 VAC 60 HZ [I have since added the specs to the product description]. As such this product is only good for the US market and can not be used overseas. I decided to keep it as shipping it back would cost more than the product. As always read the reviews before buying.Customer Review: A must have for your luggage
Summary: 5 Stars
It's impossible to travel these days without a bag full of electronics, from the cell phone charger, the laptop AC adapter to a Bluetooth plug-in and more. The problem is finding enough outlets in a hotel room to plug in everything. The Monster MP 4 outlet travel power strip is the solution. The cord is short; the plug fits into one of the receptacles, allowing the power strip to fit neatly into your luggage or computer bag. 4 outlets will provide enough plug ins so you'll never be without power.Customer Review: Main cord sticks to the side when plugged in
Summary: 2 Stars
The way most outlets are installed on the wall, the cord sticks to the side, rather unsightly, rather than going straight down (or up). There is no way to lay the cord neatly; I purchased this to plug my phones on my kitchen counter and the lateral sticking cord looks unsightly; I consider this a design flaw. Probably the best option would have been to have the plug rotate freely so the cord can be arranged neatly regardless of the position of the plug/outlet/cord (albeit for a higher price).Customer Review: NOT FOR OVERSEAS USE. GOOD FOR USA ONLY
Summary: 1 Stars
This is only good to use by itself within USA. The product is clearly marked " Electrical Rating 125VAC 60HZ". For you to be able to safely use this overseas, it has to be plugged to power converter/transformer that has an output of 110-120V. It is risky to plug this directly into 220-240V as it is not rated to handle such voltage. Monster Co. did not even bother to mention this. I will be cautious in buying Monster products in the future as they can be monsterously dangerous.Customer Review: Perfect for travel
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased this power strip to take to Europe. Combined with a plug adapter, it was the perfect way to recharge our cellphone, camera and MP3 players. The receptacles are spaced far apart enough to allow you to plug in the bulky charger plugs. When not in use it wraps and plugs into itself for storage. And the blue light actually functioned as a night light in a series of strange hotel rooms, which was an unforeseen benefit.
I'd recommend this without reservation.
