Rating:  - * don't skip on your surge suppressors ... you spend lots of money for your electronic equipment and get cheap on this. it not only protects but is an insurance policy if something goes wrong. i own one of these and bought 2 more because i learned how important EMI/RFI filtering is and other don't seam to offer this unless you pay much higher. what should you look for in a surge suppressor, 1. 2800 joules should be the minimum for your computer and av equipment, 2. EMI/RFI filtering on all lines, 3. coaxial/phone/Ethernet input/output all filtered and protected, 4. special transformer spaced plugs, 5. long power cord. this has it all and unlike the person who had 2 defective plugs hope no one ever has that problem but it's nice to hear they stand behind their warranty. Rating: - * Very good surge protector ... I bought a similar model to this a while back and more recently came and purchased two more of this model. They are great. The design really works well and big transformers fit nicely. Of all the surge protectors I've owned I think these are the best. Rating: - * Super Amazon Deal ... I found this item on clearance at walmart for $2.00 more than here at Amazon. After looking closer, the Walmart one was not even as good. This one is 2800 Joules and Walmart's was only 2400. Made this deal at Amazon even better. Rating: - * NOT BAD FOR TWENTY-TWO BCUKS ... This has quite a bit going for it for the price. Eight outlets and 2800 joule rating make it a bargain. You also get the other connectors thrown in if you want them, phone and ethernet, plus they give you a couple of cables. Rating:  - * Mine was defective, but warranty service was quick ... I used an 880 to hook up my A/V equipment: a TV, DVD player, VCR, amplifier, and an XBox. There was a power outage in my community. After power was restored, the VCR and XBox would not power up. Everything else connected to the 880 worked fine. I had my VCR and XBox checked out and both were fried by the power surge. I submitted a warranty to CyberPower and got a new 880 in the mail immediately. The warranty process was very smooth and very quick. CyberPower paid me 50% of what I originally paid for the VCR and XBox. Their warranty clearly states that they will only pay fair market value of the damaged equipment. On one hand, I can't recommend CyberPower because I got a defective surge suppressor. But on the other hand, the warranty claim process was pretty smooth. I was lucky I kept the receipts for the 880, my VCR, and my XBox. I definitely wouldn't recommend connecting your most valuable electronics with this surge suppressor. You should consider a UPS even if it's just for surge suppression. The circuitry in UPS is much better quality-wise than surge suppressor outlets. |
DVD features
Yes, the unrated edition of The Dukes of Hazzard has nudity... but no, it's not of Jessica Simpson, but topless sorority girls. There are also two sets--"PG-13" and "unrated"--of deleted scenes and bloopers. The four minutes of unrated deleted scenes (supplementing the 25 minutes of "PG-13" deleted scenes) include more sorority girls and a menage à trois for Johnny Knoxville . The five minutes of unrated bloopers (the same amount as the "PG-13" bloopers) feature a few more girls but mostly bad language. Featurettes discuss the Daisy Duke short shorts (and show how you can make your own), car stunts, and the making of the movie (narrated by a cast member of the original TV series). --David Horiuchi
