The PowerSquid Surge Protector was selected by the GOOD DESIGN Jury from hundreds of product design submissions, from over 25 countries, ranging from an airplane to a paper clip. "We are truly honored to receive this eminent award from The Chicago Athenaeum, an organization whose longstanding commitment to good aesthetic and design has inspired greatness from the world’s top designers and manufacturers for over 50 years,” said Chris Hawker, Inventor of the PowerSquid. “What a year 2006 was for the PowerSquid! We look forward to the continued expansion of the product line in 2007.” The GOOD DESIGN Award marks the third major award that the PowerSquid Surge Protector garnered in 2006.
