Aptech A1005 five-socket power strip
The Aptech A1005 is a five-socket mains power strip with a single master switch and a 3 m cable. Star Tech lists a 2-pin plug, 10 A rated current, 2500 W maximum load and five-year warranty. Astrix confirms the five sockets, 2-pin plug, 3 m cable and single switch. This is the A1005 single-switch model; it differs from A1005MS listings that specify a separate switch for each socket.
Five sockets controlled by one switch
The A1005 has one master switch that controls the strip, according to exact-model retailer specifications. It does not provide individual switching for every socket like the A1005MS. Check the model label and product photos before buying if you specifically need separate control for each device. Five sockets allow several compatible devices to be connected, but the total load limit remains shared across the strip.
3 m cable and 2-pin plug
The listed cable is 3 m long, giving more reach from the wall outlet than a shorter strip. Measure your route and allow slack; do not stretch the cord, run it under rugs or pinch it behind furniture. The plug is listed as 2-pin. A two-pin connection may not provide a protective earth. Check local plug fit and the grounding needs of connected devices. Do not use a two-pin strip with equipment requiring protective earth, and do not force incompatible plugs into the sockets.
Electrical rating
Star Tech specifies 10 A current and a 2500 W maximum load for the A1005. Treat the 2500 W as the combined limit across all sockets, not a per-socket allowance. Add the expected loads and remain within the lower limit stated on the strip or connected device. Equipment with high startup current or specific grounding needs requires particular care. If the rating label on the unit differs from the web listing, follow the physical label and ask the seller before use.
Warranty and current price
Star Tech lists five-year warranty coverage, while Astrix advertises official warranty without showing a duration on the exact-model page. Confirm the warranty issuer, claim method, exclusions, invoice requirement and coverage for cable, switch and sockets. On 10 November 2026, Star Tech and Astrix listed the exact A1005 at ৳750 and in stock. Prices, stock, checkout discounts and delivery charges can change.

Before connecting equipment
Check the unit label, plug compatibility, combined wattage and earthing requirements. Do not treat the strip as surge-protected, overload-protected or grounded; the reviewed exact-model specifications do not confirm those features. The pages reviewed also do not establish its voltage range, safety shutters, conductor material, country of manufacture or manufacturer part number. Ask the seller for the exact revision and safety markings if those details matter.
