Sometimes I find myself shopping for things that I’d prefer to go out and get within the same day, but now I’d have to order and wait a few days to get…So I’m wondering what some of those things may be for you?

    Man, Im hunting for a good powerstrip for my desk right now too.

    That Isobar is tempting, but seems overkill for a PC.

      If it’s not specifically called a surge protector, it’s probably not worth it. It’s difficult to even find a good surge protector online without getting flooded with cheap power strips because SEO makes them all show up in the same searches. But they are not the same. Power strips are little more than splitters with a switch. A surge protector will actually offer your devices some protection.

      Uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) give you a load of sockets to work with and protect your expensive electronics from damage

      This is the one I ended up going with. Not too expensive and it has good, solid connections that ease my house fire paranoia.
