Questions, answered.
Frequently asked.
When will my order ship?Orders & shipping+
In-stock orders ship from our California warehouse within 24 hours on business days and typically arrive in 3–7 business days. Some orders ship from the nearest Amazon warehouse to reduce transit time.
Can I track my order?Orders & shipping+
Yes — you'll get a tracking link by email as soon as your order ships. You can also paste any tracking number into 17track.net, or check order status in your account. Contact us with your order number if you need it sooner.
Where do you ship from?Orders & shipping+
Our primary warehouse is in Baldwin Park, California. A portion of orders ship from the nearest Amazon fulfillment center for faster delivery.
Is it safe to order online?Orders & shipping+
Yes. Checkout runs on Shopify's PCI-compliant payment infrastructure — card details are encrypted end to end and never touch our servers. We see your order, not your card number.
Can I change my order after placing it?Orders & shipping+
Orders move to the warehouse fast — often within minutes — so changes aren't guaranteed. Email info@crsttech.com with your order number right away and we'll try to catch it before it ships. Once shipped, the standard 30-day return process applies.
How do I know you received my order?Orders & shipping+
A confirmation with your order number appears right after checkout, and the same details are emailed to you within about 30 minutes. A second email with tracking follows when the order ships.
What does 14AWG mean and why does it matter?Products & specs+
14AWG is the wire gauge of the cord. It is thick enough to carry the full 15A load safely without overheating. Cheaper strips often use thinner 16AWG or copper-clad aluminum, which runs hotter under load.
Will the 45° plug fit in tight spaces?Products & specs+
Yes. The low-profile 45° flat plug sits flush to the wall so furniture and desks can be pushed right up against the outlet.
What certifications do CRST strips carry?Certification & safety+
Depending on the model: ETL Listed, UL 1363 (power strips), UL 1449 (surge protection), and SGS. The exact marks are on each product's spec table.
How do I get certification documentation?Certification & safety+
Each certified model's page lists its certifying body and the standards it is listed to. Documentation is issued on request — contact us with the SKU. A Certificate of Insurance (COI) is available the same way for procurement files.
How many joules do I need?Certification & safety+
1000J+ covers phones and small electronics; 2000–4000J is better for workstations, AV racks, and tools. More joules means a longer protective life.
What does the warranty cover?Warranty & returns+
Every product includes an 18-month standard warranty against defects. Register for free to extend it to 36 months. Defective units are covered, including return shipping.
How do returns work?Warranty & returns+
We offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. If a defect is on us, we cover return shipping. Start a return from the contact form or by phone.
Do you offer volume pricing for bulk orders?Business orders+
Yes. For larger quantities, request a quote and our team will price it by hand. Email info@crsttech.com with the models and quantities you need.
Can you provide a COI and W-9?Business orders+
Yes — procurement documents including a Certificate of Insurance, W-9, spec sheets, and line cards are available on request. Contact us with what your team needs on file.
