Son#2 wants his whiz bang powerboard thingy back before winter storms arrive. So, what is a good brand of powerboards for a normal person like me?

I need surge protection for MY things before the winter storms arrive.

HPM? Jackson? Belkin?
From memory HPM was always a good thing.

Many thanks for all the responses!

It is not a subject on which I have any recent experience. All my stuff I bought at least 10 years ago and have not updated since. Those brands probably don’t exist anymore.

Cool. I’m gonna ask the son, he’ll probably mutter something at me and say it’s all Chinese shit crap. He was such a delightful child, wtf happened to him?
