Nope, probably won't work: it's rated for 13 amps max on a 10 amp nominal supply. US 120V is not 13 amps, it's usually 15-20 amps, nominal. If the strip has it built in, you'll trip the fuse on it constantly. Without a built in fuse you run the risk of simply frying the strip itself if it's been cheaply built (& most are).
