I’d do some research if I were you. I don’t like plugging anything into a surge protector without a solid warranty that covers equipment damage and I’ve never heard of SUPERDANNY…
I don’t know enough about electricity. Electrician told me I have 3 phase 400v and it wasn’t common. Not sure what that means or what benefit it gives me.
Three phase is useful for industrial motors or if you need more than 200A service. If I wanted to add another car charger in my garage and use them at the same time, they would have had to bring in another phase.
It just means that you can run industrial gear; maybe was owned by a keen potter previously. Big kilns need 3 phase power. No it isn’t common for domestic, but I have a few friends with big shed that have 3 phase power for machining tools.
Depending on what capacity the supply has; e.g. if you have a smallish 80A supply you can run a a good sized CNC mill in you shed.
Yeah, they all say that. And then when you try to claim it they have a million clauses in their fine print that allows them to weasel out of it.
Did you register to your equipment with them when you plugged it in? Do you still have your receipts? Did you use an extension cord anywhere in your power path at all? Did you know they only provide “current pro rata market value” for everything, which means their math makes all your computers worthless after they’re a week old? Can you prove it was actually a power surge and not some other occurrence that took out your device? Etc., etc., etc.
Never trust your equipment to one of those guarantees.
This is almost real.

Now that I know this, uh, I might be about to buy one.
In SUPERDANNY we trust
He’s like regular Danny, only more super.

It doesn’t work like that
I don’t consider anything like this a “surge protector,” just a power strip.
Any equipment I actually give a rat’s ass about in that respect is connected to a UPS anyhow.
I’ve actually heard of SUPERDANNY before. I’ve seen their products for sale on Newegg before.
You would be a SUPERDANNY fan…
The name stuck in my mind haha
I own one they’re fantastic, you just have to realize what you have. You can’t plug in a computer three laptops to monitors and a space heater.
Most of the stuff I’m plugging in is a few watts.
👀
What about a desktop, two laptops, speakers, a printer, four monitors, and some networking equipment? Asking for… Myself. I’m asking for myself.
The box says 15 amps. I think 15 might be pushing it at a bit.
Just start adding up all the input amps and see what it comes to. If it’s not Enterprise Network gere and a laser printer you have a solid chance.
Yeah, this is a solver for the oodles and oodles of devices that all insist on using their own dedicated 5v wall wart.
Space heater 1500W, PC 500W, 3 laptops 360W, 2 monitors 100W = 2460W
With our superior european 230V outlets you can in fact easily plug all that into one power bar :D
We have 220V here too, just not a lot of receptacles or options on power strips :)
I have a 220v 50A in my garage, clothes dryer and Oven.

You sure it’s 50A? I thought it was usually 30.
Yup. 50A for level 3 chargers and welders. Oven might be 30, but i know the garage is a 50a circuit.
Still a lot of outlets
2100 Joules? does it self destruct after 1.12 seconds at rated capacity?
Surge protection capacity
I don’t know… Tripp Lite (no affiliation) surge strips insure equipment you plug into them. For life…
