Review: Makes single corded devices highly available. - I love this thing. It's the 3rd one I've bought recently and it does exactly what it is supposed to do... switch between two power sources blazing fast that even my most sensitive electronics don't notice. When we buy servers, I always get dual power supplies, so I didn't need this for that. I needed this for the single corded devices such as lower-end switches and firewalls where the only option for secondary power is a costly DC power backup. I now plug these devices into the ATS and problem solved for a lot less money. I docked one star for value since this device isn't cheap, although it is cheaper than the APC product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 16 amp rated
*by J***H on 14 August 2021*

Didnt look very hard at the amp rating, so I had to install a different socket for this PDU. Was thinking it was 30, the description was good, my reading was not. Works great, solid build.
