Belkin PureAV Home Theater Power Consoles

[tomd51]

Here's two very good deals on a couple of Belkin PureAV surge suppressor/conditioner power centers from eCost:

Belkin PureAV™ Home Theater Power Console PF60

Belkin PureAV™ Home Theater Power Console PF40

I've got the PF31 and it's got some great features (remote turn on, 12v switch, etc.), these are even better equipped. If you're looking to handle more than a few components without spending an arm and a leg, these are two very good options... -TD

They also have the Harmony 880 remote for $149. That's not a bad deal!

I just got confirmation my PF60 has shipped, so I guess they are indeed available in stock. Great deal for $149 ($159 minus $10 Google checkout).

Thanks for the recommendation Tom!

NP...

They've been hit-or-miss w/some refurbished stuff being in stock, but pretty solid for new items from my experience... -TD

Yeah, I wanted the black also, but the price on the silver was like half the price.

roger, i plan on spending 5 bucks on some paint and taking care of it why is the black one so darn expensive?

I just ordered the PF30 for $79! They have $10 off for google checkout for anybody, not just new users like before.

Good tip, Pat!

Good tip, Pat!

I figured a good surge protector that lays on the floor costs $79 so I can't go wrong with this!

I'm really interested in the pf-40, I was wondering if has switched outlets and how many.

I'm sure it does. The PF31 has six switchable outlets, two specifically for high current (e.g. amps).

update: It has the same configuration as the PF31, here's a link to the PF40 manual from Belkin... -TD

Anyone have thoughts comparing the PF60 to Belkin's AP30800-10 UPS surge protector? The UPS has automatic voltage regulation (AVR), but I don't know how that compares to the line conditioning that they use in the PF60. I don't really need a UPS for my home theater, but my brother recommended getting a UPS with AVR instead of a line conditioner to save some money.

As a general quesion, what are your thoughts on eCost? I almost ordered a PF60 when this thread first started, but then I came across sooo many negative customer reviews of the store (including one guy that recently had a bad experience ordering a PF60) that I balked and didn't order one.

Thanks.

I actually ordered two PF60's from the ecost. 1 for me because I live in an old apartment and wanted the safety net and to be able to monitor everything. And one for my dad who wanted a power conditioner for his home theater. Each one was a seperate order made within a day of each other and both arrived within a week of ordering (I think more like 5 days but not 100 percent). They were both packed well and work perfectly.

So I would order from them again. The PF60 seems to be doing a great job aswell.
