looks like a regular power strip with some overvolt protection. depending on power conditions, it might be wiser to invest in a decent UPS device for your computer and sensitive equipment - a good UPS (un-interuptable power supply) will give you enough time to properly shutdown equipment in the event of a power failure, as well as isolate from "brown outs" or power dips. here's an example of the products (except the first one which is a power strip): http://www.comx-computers.co.za/compute ... d=0&cat=33 no recommendations here although APC is generally a reliable brand. having a replaceable battery is important as you'll need to do that periodically.
