Sansai PAD-661SW 6 Way Surge Powerboard with Individual Switches AU/NZ

I have had this powerboard for about a year. The individual switches are very useful. Having a wider spacing for some sockets is good too. The 1m cord might be too short for some applications. Also the individual switches can be bumped in some environments. In my case it was next to a kitchen rubbish bin and when the bin got bumped, then sometimes so did the switches, so I got an extension cord and moved my powerboard to a different location which is more convenient and better at preventing the switches from being bumped.

This powerboard feels very sturdy and, with the surge protection and switches, offers all that I need for the mix of TV and sound equipment that I am using. It enabled me to avoid the mix of trailing powerboards that was an alternative.

I'd certainly buy another if I needed it. This powerboard feels very sturdy and, with the surge protection and switches, offers all that I need for the mix of TV and sound equipment that I am using. It enabled me to avoid the mix of trailing powerboards that was an alternative.

Pros

I wanted a powerboard for my workshop tools where each tool can be switched on and off. This powerboard is perfect for the job. It is firmly attached to the wall.

These powerboards are ideal, especially for the price.
- Surge protected
- Individually switched (one of the cheapest that i could find)
- Build quality seems to a high standard. Switches feel good and powerboard feels solid and not cheap
- Extra spacing on the 2 final spots is ideal for those yuck huge transformer plugs
- Only one wee red light that shows if the whole powerboard has power (positive for me but might be a con if you want lights for each plug to indicate if it s on)

Brought two of these as at this price they smoke some of the other more well known powerboards that are twice the price but offer the same specs These powerboards are ideal, especially for the price.

Brought as the current board I had failed. This while does the job would be better of each switch was lighted when in use.
Had one port fail suddenly however has seemed to resolve its self. Pending over next week if it does it again will need to return. Lets hope not. Brought as the current board I had failed. This while does the job would be better of each switch was lighted when in use.

Works well, you plug things into it and push the little switches there and things turn on, amazing. Works well, you plug things into it and push the little switches there and things turn on, amazing.

Good features with the individual switches and having a couple of wide-spaced sockets and the surge-protection. I bought two in Dec 2020 and one has just died due to the reset switch failing. This switch feels a bit low quality to start with and one has died after 2yr8mo. You could say that's OK for the price but this now creates e-waste that most people will just throw into landfill.

Sockets are well spaced. Been using a few weeks and the surge protector has tripped a few times. Unsure if it is due to power surge or the powerboard but the surge protector does work and is still working fine with no damage to my electronics or the powerboard itself Sockets are well spaced.
