Great product October 21, 2009 The Owl (Ottumwa, IA) We may not have seen a huge savings by using them, but after buying them there is definitely a change for the better
Quality is not there August 25, 2009 Lea (Ohio, USA) Bought 2 of these strips in January 2008. They seemed to work fine until June 2009. Strange thing, they both started making this terrible, irritable noise everytime a device was cut on. I had to stop using them and of course, the warranty was up. I would not recommend these strips, I went back to using my old ones, which have been working for years.
works like a charm for me May 28, 2009 Michael Frigerio at first I was very skeptical to purchase this strip from reading all the bad reviews It got. The reason why I got it is for my Mame cabinet,as an easy all in one switch solution for when I power on the cabinet. On the control outlet I have my PC hooked up, and on the white outlets I have my marquee light, speakers, and monitor hooked up. I did have to adjust the little sensitivity nob on the side a little to get it to work properly, but it literally took two minutes to find the right sensitivity. Now all my peripherals turn on and off when the PC turns on and off. I'm not sure if people aren't setting it right or aren't even trying to set it to begin with (make sure you read the instructions, the setting knob is allowed to make up to 1 full turn. don't go over that or force it, I only needed a half a turn for my setup, also the instructions state that if you are trying to turn on lights, they have to be at least 40 watt for incandescent, and 7 watt for fluorescent). To me it seemed super easy, maybe I was just one of the few lucky people who didn't get a defective strip. Either way I highly recommend it if you are looking for a solution to turn all your peripherals off at the push of one button.
So So April 26, 2009 J. Kerfoot (Houston, TX USA) We bought (3) Still not sure they work. You have to adjust them a lot to get the "slave" devises turn off when the "master" is turned off.
Great energy saver! April 21, 2009 L. Lipkin (Philadelphia, PA United States) I have had this power strip for a year. It works as advertised for me--none of the problems experienced by other reviewers. It reliably shuts down all power to selected items plugged into it when the main item is turned off. In my case, it shuts down my speakers, external hard drives, printer, etc when my computer is off, but leaves on my DSL modem and wireless router for my wife to use. It works for me as advertised--I shut down my PC and all of my external peripherals (monitor, hard drives) power down.
