save energy the easy way
Date: August 15, 2011
"This thing is easy to use. Just plug in a "control" item such as a lamp, and then any electrical products that you need will be turned on or off based on the status of the control. We use it to turn off power to a computer that is only used once a week or so. Lots of devices use energy just by being plugged in, and this "smart" strip helps you save energy."

"there is not a port to plug in satellite TV (or cable TV ~ ??) making this unusable for our television system. I decided to keep it for my computer system."

Great power saver

"these are great to have, particularly for a computer. Computers typically have speakers and printers that stay on even when the computer is off, so this helps have all of those components turn off completely.
My one knock is that there are not enough plugs for more than just a few components that need to stay on when the computer or TV are turned off."

Great way to save $$ and energy

"I love this thing! I was nervous about it turning everything off at first but I had no trouble with the cable and the WII, etc. I am going to be purchasing more of these for other items as well. I really like the fact that it has different outlets for "never turn off", etc."

Works great! Some hints...

"I like the Smart Strip quite well. It took a bit to get the hang of what loads were big enough to trigger the switching; most small appliances (e.g., fans) don't draw quite enough power, even when you adjust the sensitivity of the strip (yes, you can do that - there's a small control on the side that lets you make the strip more or less sensitive).
We finally settled on an arrangement with the computer (an older iMac) as master, the printer, external speakers, and the wireless repeater all on switched outlets, and the lamp on an unswitched one. This way, when the computer goes to sleep, it turns off all the peripherals automatically, but we still have the light on to see.
It's a great way to automate this kind of setup. Highly recommended. I'm picking up a second one to control the TV etc. in the living room."

"The best way to reduce draw from always plugged in televisions and their add-ons. I feel better just knowing it's not drawing energy when I switch off the TV. SIMPLE"
