I really wish I could answer your question but the link provided does does not bring up any product. I do think that this product was designed specifically to plug into a 3 prong wall outlet.

Yes it is, at least that's what it says on the box ! It doesn't have a surge protector light on it, like most surge protectors, But if it wasn't built in to it, I'm sure, they would advertise it as a surge protector ! But it is a really cool unit, with 2 usb moutlets, 2 1 amp, & 2 2.1 amp for faster charging, very cool !

I have put in a surge protector in the top with the wiring. The biggest fault I have is that it is not deep enough to keep the top closed. I run the wires through the holes in from for charging my ipad and iphones.

The manual clearly warns against connecting this to an ungrounded unit. An ungrounded outlet is not only a safety risk to what you plug in it, but also completely negates any benefit of a surge protector.

The station does come with a removable insert to account for cell phone covers. There is no back to the charging device so it should not conflict with any holstering device on the case. The phone "connects" to the charger solely by the plugin on the phone and is cradled in the device. As long as the shell allows for the depth to insert the plugin into the phone, I would think you should be fine. I have the Red Diamond Flexie (gel cover) and it allows for way more than enough room.

I have mine plugged into a surge protector. Just my two cents. But I cannot see a reason why plugging this device into an extension cord would create any issues (other than ensuring polarity). Hope this helps...

No. Although the Conserve Power Switch itself uses no power when not in operation and standby power is eliminated, it is not a surge protector. It will not prevent power surges.

I would imagine that you could plug the extension outlet in just fine, but how evenly it would distribute the power for multiple charges is another question. Mine worked really well. Maybe if you feel you will need multiple outlets at the same time, you might want to consider buying two rather than risk damaging a cherished device with a power surge.

I say "yes" by implication and design. Read the following review of the Accell: http://thewirecutter.com/reviews/best-travel-power-strip-with-usb/Neither the review nor the company website specifically state that the USB outlets are surge protected, so you have to draw your own conclusion OR contact Accell support.

My theory is that if the light does not come on, it will not protect the appliance. However, that does not necessarily mean the surge protector does not work. The receptacle it is plugged into may not be grounded properly. I recommend you try the surge protector in a receptacle you know is grounded correctly to see if the light comes on. If not it will not protect anything.

You could tie it into a 240VAC circuit breaker that is already n use. Anything on the line should be protected but may get more surge than one of the other lines. I have mine on a separate breaker and the breaker blew when the surge hit so there might be some backlash from the surge protector. Idea;y i would put in another circuit breaker, but piggy-backing on an existing line would definitely be better than not having the surge protector at all.

There should be no problem, but if your plug from the phone is wide you will need to put an extension the surge protector, because is close to the wall.

All devices should be plugged in directly into surge protector. Never use a extension cord between outlet and protector, for best protection of your electronics read instructions. Happy Tripp-in

I have not purchased this item. I think my daughter and son who have the same initials as I, must have purchased this item, and Amazon has sent this question to me, BUT, I did look into the detailed description of this item, and it does have inbuilt surge protection.

There is approximately one inch depth in the bottom compartment so, no, I don't believe a surge protector would fit if all cords were plugged in. I have mine tucked between this and a wall so it is hidden for the most part.

As I understand it, this is adequate protection for surge, just like the extension strip surge protectors, just this fits in the wall behind your TV. That is what mine is being used for. http://www.leviton.com/OA_HTML/ProductDetail.jsp?partnumber=5280-W&section;=39994

It is not recommended through a surge protector. It may not work at all or will be unreliable. I do not know if has one built in, but I have three and have been using them for over a year with no issue.
