This is my current setup except without the surge protector. I'm planning to buy that surge protector and I'm wondering whether it will work.

This looks like a fire hazard.

I've actually have had this setup for the last 10 years. Just without the surge protector. So far, no fire.

i have no idea what im looking at.

 

but it's not really recommended to plug in any powerboard/double adapter into another powerboard/double adapter.

 

You would be better off just getting a couple of powerboards with a built in surge protector (and connect each one to a different wall socket). to many devices connected to it could just trip it because of the amount of current you're trying to draw from a single socket

Technically it would work, but there's far to many points of failure in there, not to mention added bulk.
