I bought this from JW Computers Bankstown yesterday. Plenty in stock.

Surge protection (L-N,L-PE,N-PE), 375 Joules
Maximum spike current 13,500 AMPS
Overload protection
Double break safety switch
6 outlets Australia sockets
Power cord:2.0M
MAX2400W-MAX10A,240V
Complies with: AS/NZS3015 2007 AS/NZS3112
$66 normally
And they don't even have individual switches…
As they say : "A fool and their money…"
I am using a 8 ports one, very good quality product. when I plug in and I did that a lots, I don't remember I ever heard any sparks like many brands I got. For this price it's a good buy, but not really for surge protection and not for 2A charging.
I purchased my 8 socket one a long time ago. It was at a IT convention and the seasonic booth had them for sale.
Runs side by side with a belkin.
$9.95 delivery. No deal.
I think I saw this at Costco yesterday for $30
Edit: 2x Huntkey powerboards, not just the 1.
Surge protection (L-N,L-PE,N-PE), 375 Joules
Maximum spike current 13,500 AMPS
Only 375 Joules - not good.
Sure, this is $55 but it has:
Energy absorption: 1550J (over 4x the protection)
Max surge current: : 52,000A (almost 4x)
and it has EMI/RF protection.
The 8 way that preceded this was rated comparable to the winning Belkin by Choice magazine.

Good luck claiming equipment warranty if DSE are permanently closed in the near future :>
APC 6-way surge arrest is another good alternative.
Surge energy rating is 2030joules.
I just had one delivered from mwav.com.au for about $45 delivered. Good price. Less if you pickup of course
