APC 11-OUTLET SURGE PROTECTOR 3020 JOULES WITH PHONE, NETWORK ETHERNET AND COAXIAL PROTECTION, SURGEARREST PERFORMANCE (

This appears to be well-made and, despite what some other reviewers state, the battery seems to be easily removable and replaceable if ever need be. I'm using it solely to keep my home network (ARRIS TG1682G Xfinity Gateway) and security hub (iSmartAlarm CubeOne HUB) running in the event of a power outage. I flipped the circuit breaker to test it and it kept my network/security running for over 2 hours and appeared to still have some juice left when I ended the test. As an added bonus, it also has a single USB power port that I can use in a pinch to charge my mobile phone or tablet. This unit fits my needs for a reasonable price.

We had a Non-APC vendor power surge protecting our outside cable coax line and a network cable coming into our house from the outside (my husband does astrophotography in the backyard and needs network connectivity better than wireless.) Well lightning struck the back of our yard and took out BOTH the coax and Cat5e network cable, long with very piece of IT gear we had. It took 2 weeks to get us back up and running with Comcast. I'm hoping this does better. We are using both the network and coax surge protectors and most of the plugs. We are crossing our fingers.

After researching I chose this one since normal surge protectors default to power-through to after experiencing the first surge, but if lightning strikes twice this one will automatically die and not allow any future surges through. I'd much rather have a surge protector that dies and protects my devices than one that stops protecting my devices and allows them to stay on and possibly destroyed.
