Cyberpower 850 Review by Jason Ralsky (New Jersey, USA)
I've been using Cyberpower protectors for ages. I have 4 different ones in my house and had two save thousands of dollars in equipment once.
Surge Suppressors(protectors) are designed to cut your equipment off from the outlet the moment it detects a surge of power. The Joules rating on surge protectors is important. Essentially the higher the rating, the more durable the surge protector is. 500 joules is all you need, but the higher you go the more resilient the protector becomes. This is because the minute a surge protector/suppressor blocks a surge the components inside are designed to detect said surge, and redirect it to ground(avoiding your components) This results in the device breaking/burning out. The more joules the device can handle, the more it is able to redirect before failing. So a 2000 joule device could perhaps take a lightning strike to a home and survive long enough to redirect the initial harmful blast... while a 200 joule device burns out almost immediately and the continued surge tears into your electronics
** if you have a SURGE and the protector survives... remove it immediately as in rare cases they can survive, the components inside that PROTECT against surges have already burnt out. Meaning next time you get a surge it will just zap your electronics **
The reason why I love cyberpower products is because they actually stand by their warranty. If you have a surge (and can prove the surge) they will give you fair market value for the devices (usually 50% of face value since the stuff was used) better than getting nothing. I had a major surge hit my house when the main power line to my house failed (most homes have 2, 110volt lines going to your house.. one of mine literally exploded underground due to the power company failing to perform routine maintenance in the area) It caused half my house to pretty much surge out of control. Any device not hooked up to a surge protector was instantly toast. Only stuff that survived was stuff hooked up to my two cyberpower surge protectors. After witnessing just how invaluable surge protectors/suppressors are I've got everything on surge protectors now! And try my best to convince my relatives and friends that a "power strip" doesn't have a high enough Joule rating to protect you from a "major" surge.
Anyhow to sum it up Cyberpower is the company you want to deal with
1. They actually do back up their warranty claims 100% (other reviews here even confirm that)
2. Their products are top notch and don't cost much at all. Many other brands you are paying simply for "name"
3. High ratings and good placement of the plugs (3+ transformer ports)
4. Indicator lights which basically are used as "test" lights. As long as the lights remain on you are protected. If the "surge" light is off... the device is not functioning as a surge protector anymore.. if the "ground" light is off.. the outlet you are plugged into is NOT GROUNDED (very bad).
Wonderful product that is lightweight, cheap, quality and can last for years (I have 2 cyberpower 880's that are going on 5yrs now still in perfect working order because thankfully no surges)
Some added specs on this model Surge Protector
Built in 15amp breaker
response time: Less than 1ns (nanosecond)
surge suppression of 6,000 volts and up to 90,000 amps (most lightning bolts are 5,000 - 20,000 amps so this baby can actually suppress a small lightning strike)
*** This device will not protect you against a BROWN-OUT you will need a special UPS (uninterrupted power supply). Cyberpower actually is one of the few companies out there which produce UPS devices that have built in brownout protection. They are actually surge protectors + battery backup in one with ultra fast response times
Cyberpower 850 Review by James K. Baptista "jimbat" (Fresno,CA)
I have 2 in use already, got a power surge and worked perfect.. I had to replace my Cyberpower 850 8-Outlet Surge Suppressor - 2400 Joules 15A RJ11 EMI/RFI but all my equipment survived
Cyberpower 850 Review by Chad
I have been using for over a year now and have no complaints. I am using it in a space above a gas fire place so it gets warm but has been functioning fine.
