The three LED lights, "Protected" LED, "Ground" LED and "Line OK" LED tells you everything is working properly. That tells me the Tripp Lite is a quality product with build quality to match, it actually looks nice out in the open next to all my anodized black AV gear. All my other surge protectors had to be reset, the Tripp Lite clearly was able to take the surge head on without tripping the breaker. Since yesterday I sent in my replacement and I have purchased two more of these Tripp Lites, one for my expensive computer and the other one for my RC charging equipment. This is the home theater surge suppressor/protector/line conditioner to buy, my first Tripp Lite had one outlet that didn't work. I had a bad surge hit my house the day before I sent it back for a replacement, the reason why I'm not giving it a four star rating is because it's the only surge protector that did not trip the breaker. It also came with plastic plugs for outlets not in use, that is nice since it keeps the dust out.
After it arrived, I was so impressed with its heft and construction and features, that I ordered a second one to protect my home office electronics. Just shop around for a good price since I found there was some variability and these puppies are by no means cheap. I played Santa for myself this past Christmas with some new electronic items and bought this after much online searching, talking to techno geek buddies of mine, and determining that it would be foolish to NOT protect my investments by getting one of these. Definitely a strong recommendation.
I have been able to now protect my telephone, coaxial TV Antenna, CAT5 router, and all my power bricks all with one device. I ended up buying two additional smaller Tripp Lite protectors because I liked everything this one offered. My header pretty much says it. After losing several thousand $$ from a nearby lightning strike that crept in on my phone line, I looked for the best protector I could find and I feel this is it.
As long as this thing lasts, I will be very happy. This thing seams pretty heavy duty, has plenty of connections, and was a decent price. I ordered this because I wanted a quality surge protector to protect my HDTV, Blu Ray player, XBOX360 and receiver. I didn't want to buy a $200-$300 surge protector from a high end audio and visual store but I wanted something nice. The entire case is made of steel or aluminium and very nicely coated.
Design is well built and organized to help indentify your plugs. Read other reviews to find this surge suppressor had one of the best warranty's. Nice Unit
