Amazon.com Product Description
If travel is an integral part of your business, you'll definitely want to check out the Curtis Surge to Go surge protector. This handy little unit packs much more inside than its tiny case first indicates. We were surprised that the 3-inches-in-diameter device held two surge-protected outlets, two-device telephone protection, and a handy little swivel cap that not only stores the cable manager but also protects the plug ends when it's not in use.The Surge to Go also includes an extra telephone cable and features a two-stage failsafe protection technology that ensures against overheating and surges. This is an indispensable unit at an inexpensive price.

 excellent compact surge protector June 2, 2001
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this item in Jan 2001 just before a trip to Europe. I found it convenient for several reasons. One, it tells you if an outlet has power, if it's grounded properly, and if you're protected (three little lights on top). Two, it comes with two grounded outputs (one on either side) which are great for whatever extra appliance needs to be plugged in (your friend's powerbook, a lamp at the table, an external firewire drive, etc). Both of these outputs leave plenty of room for the extra wide converters that sometimes come with periferals. Three, it offers one telephone input, and two outputs (one for modem, one for fax or telephone). This means you can tap in anywhere (a hotel room, a friend's place, etc) and, when you're not using your modem, you don't need to replug-in the telephone. I found it to be great for working at coffee shops and for any trips within the US. One warning: I have only one criticism, which isn't entirely the fault of Cutris, but as it's a companion to a laptop, Curtis could have included some instructions not to plug it into a foreign outlet. Basically, it's a different voltage which is not at all grounded, I'm not even sure it could have worked even with a converter. Maybe they thought this was obvious. Regardless, I mistakenly plugged it (alone - no computer connected) into a hotel socket in Paris to the welcome of a gigantic spark and a quick shock. The lights went out across my wing of the hotel. Anyway, a warning not to try this yourself. I still give the item a great review. Suprisingly few surge protectors offer two tel-out jacks, especially on a portable. I bought a second one once I returned.
 Good Notebook Computer Accessory January 24, 2001
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Good surge protector for notebook owners because it is a relatively inexpensive and lightweight accessory to pack along for travel trips. However, the manual is nonexistent for the product because it does not decipher what the colors on the 3 LED status lights stand for. The outlets are only suitable for plugs that are standard, not the big blocky type that are common for printers and Zip drives. The price beats the competition out there, and the design is very functional to fit all wall receptacles. The lifetime $10,000 warranty is the main feature that stands out for this surge protector.
