'Under monitor' power centre/surge protector

[BTB 500]

Nobody seems to make these any more?

I've had a Belkin 'Surge Master' (F5C100u) for years but the main power switch is playing up now.

Having a row of switches for things like scanner / printer / speakers etc. that aren't used all the time is so convenient.

I can't find anything similar for sale new, any suggestions??

Just to be clear, this is the sort of thing I'm talking about

The sockets are along the back, switches on the front. It's the main power switch (on the right) that's playing up

Sorry I originally misunderstood what you were asking for.

It seems the product has been discontinued. But on the product description it does say that it comes with a lifetime guarantee. So maybe a call-email to Belkin will help you fix it.

Or there is this, which looks similar:

Get in touch with Belkin - they have a lifetime guarantee which they'll honour. Replaced a modem for me which was taken out by a lightning strike!
