Can it be used with a power strip and/or an extension cord?

Yes, it works well with a power strip. I have one plugged into the power strip and our TV projector is plugged into the Simple Touch. It turns off while I am sleeping after I pick a pre-set time. I am not sure how you intend to use with an extension cord.

I have mine plugged into a power strip. I do not know if you can plug a power strip into it.

Yes. May need an extension cord though, depending on how close you are to an outlet. The cord is understandably short for a portable device.

Not possible - Not advisable - There are two three pronged male plugs on the unit. To plug it into and extension cord would leave one open and be a shock and fire hazard.

Plug in that doesn't go very far so for outside jobs will def need a extension cord

I haven't but I don't see any reason it wouldn't work. The plug just acts as an outlet & the power strip would be no different from any other device you were using. I just wouldn't load the strip up with a lot of things because it may draw too much current. One or 2 devices on the strip should be OK.

I haven't attempted this. But I imagine it would work. I would just get a power strip with a button instead though.

Cord length is standard -5 or 6 ft. Yes you can use an extension cord with it.

You can plug two of these into a standard two outlet wall connection. Not sure about a power strip.

As long as the power strip is not a surge protector it would be okay provided that the total load is under 10 amps.

A plain power strip- -no problem as long as the total combined load does not exceed the rating of the UPS. Plugging a surge protector strip is not recommended.

According to the tag attached to the appliance, it is recommended to NOT use with any extension cord. The unit should be plugged directly into a wall outlet. You may want to contact the manufacturer for confirmation on this.

I don't see why not since all it requires is AC power. The power strip gives the device what it requires. You should be good to go.

you would probably be able to use the power cord, but you would have to buy an adapter for the plug itself.

I think you could use it with an extension cord, the cord is probably 3 or 4 feet long I believe and has a regular plug at the end.

Lisa, I have not connected to a power strip. I have connected it to multiple extension cord outside and it works amazingly. The only suggestion I have is to make sure that your hub is close enough to it. Hope this helps. Brendon

This single power strip serves as an on/off switch where none exists. It is not really a power strip because it is for a single outlet. If you connect an extension cord to the single outlet, then you can have more than one outlet controlled by an on/off switch. Don't buy this, if you want a traditional power switch!

The strips must be connected to use the same power source. I suppose if you had a long enough extender, the one that comes with it is maybe 4", it might work.
