POWER STRIP SUGGESTIONS

The power strip I'm using breaker has tripped 4 time in about 2 months. I'm using the same 2 station setups that I've been since I purchased the strip about 2 years ago. It only trips when I'm a bit long winded. There's many times I've been long winded before the breaker began to trip about 2 months ago and the breaker never Tripped then. I don't know the specs beyond it has 10 recepticals and uses normal 110 corrent. It only trips while being a bit long winded but up until 2 months ago long windedness never caused the breaker to trip. I'm assuming it's been time for a new and improved one. Is there one someone who owns and uses a strip for a 4 watt transceiver, 500 watt amp and a pep reading meter and has been happy with it, without having similar issues they can recommend? Thanks. 73
 

I've been using a TRIPP-LITE ISO-Bar for years with no issues. I Have a 70 amp power supply which runs a 500 watt HF amp along with another Mega-Watt 35 amp p/s which runs my HF radio, tuners, meters, and a few other accessories all plugged into the TRIPP-LITE. I also use rig runners for both base and mobiles so all accessories and radios plug into one source, amps direct of course.

This is the one I use. You can google sarch and find them all over the net like Amazon, Ebay, etc.
