CyberPower CSP600WSU Surge Protector, 1200J/125V, 6 Swivel Outlets, 2 USB Charging Ports, Wall Tap Design

This unit would be great *IF* it has a way to screw the unit in place (I replaced another unit that was identical, except that there wasn’t any USB connectors on it, and that one contained a screw that allowed you to screw it into place in an existing socket – that one was made by Belkin). This one works fairly well, except the weight of the unit and the plugs tends to occasionally pull it out of the wall. If there were a way to secure it, it’d be perfect (I’m probably going to just afix it to the plug with hook and loop tape to insure it doesn’t fall out).

This won’t be a problem for the vast majority of readers, but pay careful attention to the rear view of the product, both the plug and the small black pin partway up the unit. The small black pin is meant for the ground of the second outlet — probably a feature for most users (providing stability) but a problem for me.

I moved into an apartment that has one outlet and a pair of USB ports next to the desk. With only one outlet, I had even greater need for the splitter and liked the idea of keeping the USB charging capability. Unfortunately, that small plastic pin is supposed to go into the ground for the second outlet. Since I don’t have a second outlet, it doesn’t sit properly. This could also be a problem for someone who wanted to plug the device into the upper of two outlets.

Obviously, the pin could be broken off, but I would not have purchased the unit if I noticed… and wanted to forewarn the few people who might also care.

Would rate it to 5 ⭐️’s if it had a hole through the middle to securely fasten it with a long screw to the female threads in the center of the wall outlet. The unit uses only the bottom of the wall outlet and thus does not hold the weight of a lot of plugs satisfactorily. I had to use HVAC tape to secure the top of the unit to the wall–it moved a lot with the weight of cords and could fall out of the wall outlet. The tape makes the unit look ugly but it is now safely held firmly against the wall. The only other fix would be to replace the outlet with a new one (Warning don’t attempt if you are not familiar with working with live 120 volt current–the safest is to turn off the circuit at the power panel in your house that feeds that outlet). New outlets hold plugs tighter. I would expect that this type of multiple-plug device from other brands would have the same problem. Other multiple-plug, surge protectors have a hole through the middle and a long screw to securely fasten the device to the wall outlet. You do have to remove the wall plate for these units to plug in properly. The indicator lights work and USB output charges my mobile phone and mini computer okay.

I have been using cyberpower uninteruptibal power supplies and surge protectors ever since the buyout and ridiculous price increases at APC. I live in an area with bad power and have never had a problem with protected equipment, while I have burnt motherboardds in an elliptical and a coffeemaker that were not protected. This surge protector appears to work well and the usb charging posts (thougn maxing out at two amps total for the two sockets) save an outlet or two.

The outlets pivot three at a time and it helps keep the protector from pulling out of the wall. This surge protector is on my family’s computer but it’s not big enough to protect my office with a scanner, multiple monitors multiple CPU’s etc. Fine for the way it’s used.

I have this stuck to the outlet cover with two sided foam tape. It would be even nicer if it had a hole and could be screw mounted through the center of the outlet cover into the electrical box.

Great product for the price. The only thing that I do not like is that this item takes up both wall outlets. Others have an extension chord that leads to the surge protector. I chose this one because of the price and the USB outlets. The outlets on the surge protector pivot a full 90 degrees so it helps keep the chords out of the way (if you have furniture against the outlet). The item itself sticks out of the wall a good 3″ so you still have to leave a little space. My recommendation would be to move the USB ports to the portion that pivots and allow each socket to pivot itself.

Overall I give this product 4 stars because of its price and features. A fifth star would be warranted if it didn’t take up both wall outlets or if it came with a retractable chord to improve the distance from the wall outlet.

~Highlights~
***** Rotating AC plug-in points
***** Multiple (2) USB charging points
***** Plugs directly into wall outlet- no extensions involved
***** Easy and convenient to sue in areas with limited space or where tripping over cables may be a hazard

I’ve been using this for about a month, and so far it has lived up to all expectations. It maintains connections well, and the maneuverability of the AC connections make it easy to use without any overlap of cords, which is often a problem with other surge protectors. My only complaint is that it only plugs into one of the outlets, and covers the other one, which I worry reduces the available power across all 6 outlets (plus the USB outlets). It also lacks a USB-C outlet. Otherwise, I’m quite pleased with it and its performance, not to mention convenience. I would highly recommend it to anyone requiring a simple surge protector with USB charging capabilities. I currently use it for my HTC Vive Vive Virtual Reality system.

Looks Awesome. Perfect for daily needs. As an improvement, it would be great if there are LED indication for each Socket

Desktop Problem Solved: Only have one plug? Well this beauty solves that issue. Super Secret part. The Two USB Charging ports build it. Now that outlet you were using with that bulky single USB charger? No more. Plug this one in and enjoy 6 outlets and Two USB chargers.. Honestly? This is in our bathroom. Amazon Alexa plugs in, phone charges and all of the other stuff that needs a plug.
