Overview
TESSAN's single-outlet surge protector plugs into a wall receptacle and passes through one grounded outlet rated to 1875W, with 1050 joules of surge protection and a status light. Its compact grey housing, about 2.1 by 2.91 by 1.18 inches, fits into tight or recessed outlet boxes.
This is not a power strip, it protects exactly one plugged-in appliance, which is the point for spots where a full strip will not physically fit: behind a fridge, inside a recessed two-gang box, or in-line with a treadmill or massage chair. The status light is the only ongoing feedback you get that protection is active.
- 1050 joules of surge protection
- 1875w max rated single outlet

- Surge protection status indicator light
Who it's for
Best for anyone protecting a single appliance, like a fridge, TV, treadmill or a set of recessed lights, especially where a full power strip will not fit. Less suited to anyone needing to protect several devices from one outlet.
What buyers say
From Amazon customer reviews.
Buyers describe it as compact and well made, small enough to leave the second outlet on a duplex receptacle free, and several fit it into tight or recessed two-gang boxes where bulkier surge protectors would not fit, including directly behind a refrigerator. One reviewer used it to protect a recessed lighting power supply after lightning strikes had blown out two previous supplies and reported it holding up through two storms. A few reviewers noted they had not yet had a real power event to test it against, so their comments speak to fit and build quality more than proven surge performance, and one buyer in an especially tight space had to accept this model's lower joule rating because higher-joule single-outlet protectors were too big to fit.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Fits behind a refrigerator and in tight boxes
- Small footprint leaves the second outlet free
- Status light confirms protection is active
- Single outlet, not a full power strip
- Tightest spots may force a lower joule rating
