    Jackson is pretty scrap of the barrel if you call it branded… nevertheless, decent price.

        Belkin.

        I'd rather have universal sockets with individual switches.

        • Orico doesn't appear to have screw hole mounts. That sucks.

  • For individually switched powerboard it's alright, Jackson "brand" aside.

    • +1 for this Surge Protected one.

        Those "surge protector" won't do you any good, might as well just go for the cheaper individual switched ones. They are far from say Cyberpower or Belkin and doesn't have insurance.

        That would make this the Jackson 5.

          Thanks for letting us know.

      • Doesn't the circuit breaker protect surges anyway??

  • +2

    This doesn't have any surge protection so if that's important to you then i wouldn't recommend this.

  • I got one about 15 years ago and it was pretty crap back then. Not sure how much have improved since. Currently i bought a crest one with usb and quality is much better.

    If basic surge protection is important for you (I'm not sure personally, I've read standard ones like this are next to useless), there is the go-to Bunnings Arlec equivalent if you don't mind paying a little bit more for a 2-pack:

    Sadly did used to be the same price as this but it's crept up:

    I'd pay double just to get a glimpse at the Jackson 5.

    • here's the glimpse

        ABC easy as 123!

    • Not sure you would want to see michael now. He might be a bit wormy.

    I prefer the Jackson 5 model myself…

      i was surprised this jackson 4 board was all white.

      does that jackson 5 board have four black plugs and one white?

  • …individually switched…

    My drug of choice.

  • The only power board I had that ever failed was a Jackson (switch stopped working). To their credit they didn't make much fuss and sent a replacement after I made a warranty claim.

  • Catch has one, surge protected with 2x USB but no individual switches for $12
