Abstract
A power cord having an integral and unitarily formed surge protector and reset circuitry for delivering a power flow to a stand-alone computer gaming unit. The power cord with integrated surge protector allows for the gaming unit to be plugged into any power source without the necessity of a separate surge protector. A power switch is incorporated to allow a user or operator to turn the stand-alone computer gaming unit on or off without having to access the rear of the unit. An audio output indicator is located on a grill portion to illustrate the audio level through a series of LED lights.
