Safeguard electronics within your home ecosystem with the Austere V Series 4-Outlet Surge Protector, which features up to 3000 joules of surge suppression. Also featured are four NEMA 5-15R outlets, a NEMA 5-15P wall plug, an electrical rating of 120 VAC at 60 Hz, a max current of 15A, and a max load of 1800W. For charging smartphones and other compatible devices, there is one USB-C port with 20W of Power Delivery, plus one USB-C port and one USB-A port that share a total of 2.4A. Austere's Type II Filtration helps minimize the effects of electrical line noise. Individual LED lights signal that the unit has power, is plugged into a grounded circuit properly, and its surge suppression components are functional. If the Austere V is responsible for any damage to a plugged-in device, Austere will replace it for up to five years, while the main unit is protected by a limited lifetime warranty.
Not All Power Is Created Equal
Surge protectors can wear out over time. Joules, the protective layer of energy that defends your components, are finite. Each time your household is hit with small electrical spikes, your surge protector sacrifices joules to protect the connected components. Once your unit's joules are depleted, your system is no longer protected. The blue protection shield icon LED will cease to illuminate once the joules have been used and it's time to replace. The Austere V Series features 3000 joules and is rated to last more than five times as long as most power products. Their component guarantee helps ensure your devices are protected for up to five years.
Picture Perfect Audio/Video
PureFiltration acts like a protective force field to prevent external EMI/RFI disturbances from degrading your sensitive electronics and home theater experience. EMI, or Electromagnetic Interference, occurs when devices are near one another. Frequent exposure to EMI disturbances will harm your premium electronics and impede performance, especially TVs and audio equipment. The Austere V Series has PureFiltration Type II: Advanced EMI/RFI filtration for a superior level of performance.
Fire & Power Spike Safety
Austere surge protection regulates the power coming from the outside powerline to ensure devices do not burn out from a high voltage spike that can be harmful to your equipment. Flameless MOV Protection gives you peace of mind that powerful surges will not result in a dangerous fire. OverCurrent Protection ensures that their thermal protected power circuit cannot exceed 15A, which could cause devices to short circuit or create dangerous temperatures that may lead to a fire.
There are three OmniPort USB rapid charging ports: one USB-C with 20W of Power Delivery, plus one USB-C and one USB-A that share 2.4A of charging power, while also protecting your low voltage devices. Power Delivery (PD) is the quickest, most efficient way to charge a compatible device. Unlike other power charging options, PD can charge a smartphone at up to 20V for the fastest possible charge. Austere's smart ports are designed to minimize charging time for your electronics such as cellphones and any handheld device that charges via USB.
At Austere, they not only believe in the details, they obsess over them. The Austere V Series delivers superior protection in a compact enclosure with a linear pattern finish and polished metalized side panels with blue trim. Their ultra-wide SmartFit outlets provide extra room to accommodate the bulkiest plugs. Austere Power sits flush with the wall and fits discreetly in the tightest of spaces near furniture or behind a wall-mounted TV. The wall-mountable design allows Austere Power to be attached to the outlet and comes with an optional security screw.
Austere's lifetime guarantee ensures your satisfaction with performance and protection. Their component guarantee promises that if Austere Power is responsible for any damage to a plugged-in device, Austere will replace that device regardless of its value for up to five years.
