12 Outlet Long Power Strip 2100 Joule Surge Protector - Heavy Duty

In this review of the 12 Outlet Long Power Strip from Plug'n, the bottom line is simple: this strip is for anyone who needs a heavy duty, well-spaced power bar that protects multiple devices and reaches distant sockets. The standout reason to buy is the combination of 2100 joule surge protection and a long, 6 ft cord, which together protect equipment while offering placement flexibility for workbenches, garages, offices, and media stations.

Key Features

• 2100 joule surge protection: Automatically cuts power during voltage spikes to help protect connected electronics and reduce the risk of damage.
• 12 wide spaced outlets: Outlets spaced about 1.69 in apart accommodate bulky adapters and help avoid blocking adjacent sockets.
• 6 ft power cord: A longer cord gives more reach to distant wall outlets so the strip can be positioned where it is most useful.
• Flat plug: The low-profile plug fits tight spaces behind furniture and allows cabinets and desks to sit closer to the wall.
• Mounting options: Built-in tab ears and a robust housing let the strip be attached to flat surfaces in garages or on work benches for tidy installation.

Who It's For

This power strip is well suited to hobbyists and professionals who run multiple tools or electronics from a single bar, including garages, workshops, warehouses, and busy home offices. The long cord and flat plug make it practical for installations where the wall outlet is not conveniently located or space is tight.

It is less focused on travel or ultra-compact desktop use where fewer outlets and a shorter cord would be preferable; those users should consider a smaller strip or a compact surge protector designed for portability.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Robust surge protection at 2100 joules provides strong defense for electronics and tools.
• Wide spacing keeps large adapters from blocking neighboring outlets, improving usability.
