how many joules is this surge protector?
328327
Why are people saying this has a clamping voltage of 500V, when the product description says 330V?

Like another write said....forget joules...look at clamping voltage and get 300 or less volts. This has 500 and is almost worthless since most failures from a power company transformer can hit you with 440 and that took out everything in my house including a well...surge protected TVs included. Luckily if your handy with a screw driver and a soldering iron you can change the MOVs in most electronics and the device with work just like new...or leave take it out and you have it working but with no protect next time. This strip uses movs and one hit and it will be gone.

3996 according to the posting on Amazon, I haven't received mine yet, just ordered it on Friday. I do have the larger unit and it has been through several severe thunderstorms without a problem. It handles a large flat screen TV, 4 games systems, an all in one printer and receiver without any problem.

It all depends on the amount of the surge, of course. 1500 joules is lots of protection. I like the Zunidigital product a lot and the price is great as well. I have about 8 of them on all my equipment. This rating, given in joules, tells you how much energy the surge protector can absorb before it fails. A higher number indicates greater protection. Look for a protector that is at least rated at 200 to 400 joules. For better protection, look for a rating of 600 joules or more.

1) It has surge protection at 2040 joules http://www.p3international.com/manuals/p4330_manual.pdf and the clamp voltage of 359 is good. It is very good as surge protectors go http://electronics.howstuffworks.com/everyday-tech/surge-protector7.htm . Now personally I use mine to only see power usage to get awareness of how things suck up power. I DO NOT like surge protectors because their clamp voltage is too high in my opinion. Really good surge protectors cost about 200+. Pretty good UPS's cost about the same. UPS's are faaaaaaaaaaar better if you have sensitive equipment. For camping you are fine. If at home on your entertainment system - use a UPS from APC. The clip voltage is 127 (settable) rather than 350 which burns up equipment. UPS does surge better, clipping better, switches during brown outs, and my BRS1500 for my flat screen runs longer than 20 min during a power failure while also running my dish network and my wireless phone.

It's only rated for 200 joules. Not nearly enough for a computer plus peripherals. Prob not even for a toaster oven.

CHECK THE ATTACHED LINK, IT STATES 40,000 IT HAS A WARRENTYhttp://www.officespecialties.com/innovera_71651_wall_mount_surge_protector_6_outlets_2160_joules_184720_prd1.htm

This surge protector is for 120V, not 240V like in many other countries. I'm sure the warranty apply if you use it for 240V, as that will ruin it. I'd find out the voltage being used in your overseas destination.

I have it on my 200 amp service at my house. I'm afraid I don't have the technical knowledge to answer your question. I do know that this has saved my new appliances from frying in the last electrical storm.

I have not used this device yet. I bought it to protect electronics while using my generator. Tripp Lite says it provides good surge protection. Output voltage is 120 +/_10% @ 89 to 147 v input.

Surge protectors will generally always supply power out. However, protectors do age from years of managing surges, each surge effectively deducts from the life from protector measured in joules (more initial joules thus generally means longer life). Since there is no indication of how much joule capacity is left, you're left to make an educated guess. Thus I'd recommend replacing a protector every 2-3 years simply as cheap insurance.

It says 19vdc (Volts DC) at 2.1 amps. Thanks for asking, because mine was very warm so I moved the power supply to a place where I could get more air to cool off. ;)

It's either 3,780 or 3,550 joule energy rating. Its one of the 2. I don't have the instructions in front of me.

110, unit pulls around 12 amps and should be the only thing plugged into outlet,

It weighs 14 pounds. I don't believe it is a surge protector in the usual sense of the term, but it does regulate - that is, it keeps the output voltage constant over a range of input voltage. I use mine as a bench supply for powering older German electronics (110 to 220 conversion.)

I assume you can, although I have not tried it. It is a low end surge protector so I'm not sure if this will give you the joules you need.

I do not know. I have a computer on mine. and the power surge protector underneath.
