The amount of things plugged in doesn’t really matter, it is the current draw that would cause problems.
A Christmas Story intensifies
This is how you plug in a harpejji
This is almost real.

Now that I know this, uh, I might be about to buy one.
I’d do some research if I were you. I don’t like plugging anything into a surge protector without a solid warranty that covers equipment damage and I’ve never heard of SUPERDANNY…
I’ve actually heard of SUPERDANNY before. I’ve seen their products for sale on Newegg before.
I don’t consider anything like this a “surge protector,” just a power strip.
Any equipment I actually give a rat’s ass about in that respect is connected to a UPS anyhow.
I own one. They’re fantastic; you just have to realize what you have. You can’t plug in a computer, three laptops, two monitors, and a space heater.
Most of the stuff I’m plugging in is a few watts.
Space heater 1500W, PC 500W, 3 laptops 360W, 2 monitors 100W = 2460W
With our superior european 230V outlets you can in fact easily plug all that into one power bar :D
We have 220V here too, just not a lot of receptacles or options on power strips :)
I have a 220v 50A in my garage, clothes dryer and Oven.
You can’t plug in a computer, three laptops, two monitors, and a space heater.

What about a desktop, two laptops, speakers, a printer, four monitors, and some networking equipment? Asking for… Myself. I’m asking for myself.
I don’t know… Tripp Lite (no affiliation) surge strips insure equipment you plug into them. For life…
Yeah, they all say that. And then when you try to claim it they have a million clauses in their fine print that allows them to weasel out of it.
Did you register to your equipment with them when you plugged it in? Do you still have your receipts? Did you use an extension cord anywhere in your power path at all? Did you know they only provide “current pro rata market value” for everything, which means their math makes all your computers worthless after they’re a week old? Can you prove it was actually a power surge and not some other occurrence that took out your device? Etc., etc., etc.
Never trust your equipment to one of those guarantees.
Finally, a surge generator protector worthy of my x-mas tree and multimedia setup.
