 save money October 9, 2008

while I have only used one smart strip so far, it works and there has been a savings seen in just one month of use...
Brilliant! September 1, 2008

I bought and returned two APC versions of this outlet, since their shutoff sensor could not be adjusted. The Smart Strip overcomes this with a potentiometer dial and simple instructions.
Note: The adjustment still does not work with very low amperage devices plugged into the master outlet (e.g., small cable box).

Works as advertised. Need to wait on the energy bills to see the savings in the next few weeks. Happy with the product.

Very good product. Set your control unit, such as a TV, and then allow your speaker system, VCR, DVD, and other peripherals on the auto-switch plugs and when your TV is off, your other energy burning electronics are cut off too.

I saw this item on Oprah a while ago and have been determined to buy one ever since. For a while, they were a bit scarce, but not any more it seems. In any event, I have a lot of computer things, several printers several scanners, and lots of doo-dads that hook into all of these things. Without even exploring the more advanced settings of the Smart Strip, I can say that I am pleased with the fact that when I turn the mother ship off (a.k.a. my cpu) everthing that only functions when the computer is on shuts off as well and I know that in time, that will make a huge difference. I no longer see the many blue indicator lights on peripherals that aren't being used and it's nice. I will be hooking one of these babies up to the TV soon.
