The American DJ PC-100A 8-Switch ON/OFF Power Center provides musicians and performers with a simple solution for organizing power at their shows. This rugged power strip includes eight illuminated switches controlling eight grounded AC outlets, as well as an onboard 15-amp circuit breaker for overload protection.

Eliminate Extension Cords and Reduce Tripping Hazards

With eight AC outlets in a single, rack-mountable unit, the PC-100A allows you to plug in multiple devices without relying on extension cords and power strips. The 6' power cable gives you flexibility in placement, while the lighted power switches provide an easy visual reference for what's on and off during setup or performance. Keep your gear tidy and avoid tripping over cables with this all-in-one solution from American DJ.

Rugged and Roadworthy Design

Built to withstand the rigors of live performance, the PC-100A power center features a durable steel enclosure and abrasion-resistant power switches and outlets. Occupying a single space in a standard 19" rack, it's a compact yet high-capacity solution for powering your pedals, amps, lighting and other gear. A 15-amp circuit breaker protects against overloads for safe, reliable power wherever your gig may take you.

Intuitive Control Over Each Outlet

The front panel of the PC-100A provides individual on/off control over each of the eight AC outlets. Brightly illuminated rocker switches clearly show the status of each outlet in dark stages or tight spaces. Easily turn outlets on and off with the click of a switch to power up or shut down your gear in any sequence needed for your performance or load-in/load-out.

A Reliable Solution Backed by American DJ

For over 30 years, American DJ has provided lighting and effects solutions for musicians, DJs, and venues across the globe. They stand behind the PC-100A power center with a 1-year warranty, ensuring years of safe, reliable power for all your important gear.

Does what it's supposed to :)

I bought this because my new UREI mixer doesn't have an on/off switch and I didn't like the idea of un-plugging it to turn it off so I decided this was a good investment. I already have a Furman Power Conditioner so I didn't need this as a power strip but I like the switches so I don't have to jump around my whole setup to turn off the power on my gear. And it's not just for lights, works with all of your gear and it's priced right for what it is. So if you need a rack mounted power strip but not worried about needing a conditioner, grab this, you'll like it!

Only For The Electronic Hobbyst

Looks functionally good. Worked Ok but running my first job with it, I thought I blew out a brand new amplifier. Turned out the socket I plugged my amp into had a problem and now I understand why one of the previous reviewer had a fire with his. After I got home from that first gig, I took the unit apart. Inside there are 16 jumper wires leading from the switches to the outlets, each with 1 terminal crimped onto each end (32 in all) My first surprise, was that on the now dead outlet, the crimp ONLY TOUCHED 1 strand Of the multi stranded wire, and that strand had burned thru. To my further surprise out of the 32 crimped on connectors, only 1 was properly crimped! I will buy another, believe it or not, but only because I am an electronic hobbyist and know how to fix such things, and there is nothing around in this price range for what it does, BUT I consider this unit more of a collection of readymade parts, and NOT an actual working product. I can only recommend this to those who own a soldering iron and know how to use it. Others should just stay away.

    I have multiple items plugged in and I don't need all of them turned off, so each outlet having its on power switch helps out.

  • Makes powering up my studio very easy

    I use this to power my JBL studio monitors and sub so I can turn the units on and off without having to fish behind the speaker cabinets.
