This is a semi-teardown and photo essay for the Harbor Freight Tools Item 91334 4-outlet power strip with surge surpression. This usually can be found on sale for $3 or less from Harbor Freight Tools if you need a short cable, 4 outlet surge surpressed power strip.
Here we see the device with the good old coupon book.
It says "with Surge Protection." We'll see. The cable is very thick and does
qualify for the 14-gauge that it says. It sure is 3-prong. At 14 gauge
15 amperes works fine.
The backside. Not much special here. Except drilling holes and putting
in mounting screws would be a bit of a challenge as it's offset...
Yes it says "Surge Protection" and the French "of overvoltage." It has the
single "LED" lit switch with integrated circuit breaker.
When you turn it on, you see dual glowing metal electrodes. Wait a minute.
LED electrodes don't glow. This is a Neon bulb in there, NOT LED! But Neon
bulbs are just as if not more efficient than LEDs and cheaper to boot. My
Kill-a-Watt can't detect the neon bulb at all.
Six dual philips/flat blade screws hold the two pieces of plastic together.
