4 stars is just enough
By A203OCQQ12MAVT on 2007-11-21
First, let me state, I did not BUY this, it was GIVEN to me along with a TV monitor and some satellite uplink gear, so the person who owned it before me may have had a more pressing need. All of my TV gear is backed up behind a 3KW APC UPS with an external 48VDC battery array.
Having said that, the 5100 does do some nice things. OUTLETS. Lots of them. Error lights for over/under voltage. Current display in big LED digits. I do like the unit having used it for a while now, but I do not turn off my TV, so I forgoe most of the features.
I do like the ampmeter that tells you how much currrent you are presently pulling. Regretably they do not have a wattmeter as well. Families with children might like to have a dollar meter as a feature too.
All in all it is very well built and yes, I did take it apart before using it. Is it worth the ~400 price tag? I don't think so personally - but to some people who have invested thousands into their home theater, it's cheap and a good tool. If you have a TV/DVD/Satellite setup it's certainly not the centerpiece of your system.
Would I *BUY* it? No. Do I like it? Yes. Perhaps if I move it into my home theater room I might like it more then. For now, it's a power strip on steroids with a few handy features ironically used for my computer equipment more than the A/V gear.
I hope that helps. One last comment - every outlet is noise protected and isolated from the others, which in an analog world is an important feature. In today's digital reception, it is not a real useful tool.
a little apprehensive

This was my first (but not last) blind purchase. I had checked out the product here in canada and retail was almost double! Delivery was about a what the suggested, no complaints at all. They even packed it very well(original sealed box in another plain box... to keep away admirer???)
Anyhow, very happy with the purchase and I am considering getting a second one!
HTS 5100 Power Center
By A3RA210V0DA1J4 on 2008-02-15
Product was delivered as stated and appeared to be working properly. The power center didnt make a big difference, but may be because i was replacing an older power center that stopped working after about ten years.
