Whats the max load that can be hooked up to this? Can I hook up my computer, tv, game, dvd system power strip and not "burn it out" fire hazard?

The max load is 15A and 1800w. I have connected 1 pc for game, monitor, ups, fan, PC speakers, auido amplifier, inkjet printer and everything works perfect with low temperature. Do not connect this equipment to your microwave or items that use resistance electrical. I sent more picture of contribution for amazon check the note.

Your house would immediately burn down! Just kidding. It would likely never cause a problem especially if a heavy duty extension cord with good insulation was used, but it is, as you know, against code. Best to just suck it up and get the Datacomm kit with the power outlet and install that, or have it installed.

I used the one I bought for 4 desktop computers and 4 monitors. I bought the highest rated outlet strip. If the outlet will handle it, this power strip should

The spec sheet says the minimum power requirement is 300 watts for the system and 65 for the card, so it would seem your system is right on the edge.

No, you will be taking a big chance of burning it up. It would work if it was the other way around, since the power supply would be lower voltage than the router, not higher than the router.

Sorry, the amperage is too high for your needs. It could overheat what you are powering.

A plain power strip- -no problem as long as the total combined load does not exceed the rating of the UPS. Plugging a surge protector strip is not recommended.

This unit is only rated for 900 Watts so it you have your computer maxed out no it will not work; also even if your computer is only running at about 75% you will have no available power from the UPS for peripheral items. The power cord is 3 conductor 16 gauge with a standard 15 amp NEMA plug. I would suggest you use at least a 2000 VA UPS and really you probably need something even bigger if you want to have any amount of run time after a power failure.

It doesnt require a power connector from psu, draws its power straight through the motherboard. Not sure about power requirements, i have a 480 watt psu and im running lots of accessories off it with no problems- tower with illuminated panels and cooling fans, neon light in tower, auxiliary blower motor, and sound card. system is a second gen i5 cpu w/ 8 gigs ram. You should be ok, unless you start putting all these lights into it.

Hello Rob; I have used it on my Tv but not my computer. No particular reason. I would use a good powerstrip with a breaker but it would be best to check with a person who has the credentials before I used it on my computer. Somebody at Best Buy for example that is a member of their Geek Squad. Personally, if it were me ,I would do it because I have a 60.00 Powerstrip.

Shouldn't hurt at all. Computer will only draw what it needs. It won't fry any more than plugging that 90w charger into a wall outlet that has about 1800 watts or more potential in it. (120V X 15A)

I installed this on my grandson's computer with 350watt power supply. Only one hard drive and one dvd/cd drive. As long as you don't have a lot of power consuming additions you should be ok!

it should be fine, its not like you are running a very large system. it would certainly take some of the jump out of your power loss if you are having any.

Oh I think it could definitely handle that. I can't say for hundred percent because I don't have that card. But this power box is a beast and with my maxed having machine it has no problems and I've never ran into a problem with it. So I would say most likely it would deal with the power load fine

well you may find you need more than 200 watt transformer. i got a 500 and run all my U.S. stuff on it. ie TV, laptop.. hard drives :)... ps stay away from the one with the usb port. its junk.....

The minimum power supply listed on the box is 350W (350 Watts). There is a side note about having a minimum 12V current rating, as well, which I suspect applies to just about everyone with electricity. I use a 700W supply.As a side note, I do not recommend this video card if you wish to use it for gaming. It seems to work fine for most other things (streaming video, playing dvds, web browsing), but I found most of my games to be quite unresponsive even with severely lowered video and interface options.

I am using one with a power strip for my TV, DVD player, stereo, audio amp, sub-woofer. Very handy when a DVD stops. I turn off the switch for a moment. then open the DVD drawer to remove the problem disc immediately on power up. the only limit is the 15 amp current rating for the number of things to be plugged in.
