"Great Product - But caution if intend to use will a Dell laptop"
Check the manufacturer's website if you intend to use this with a Dell laptop as your "control" device. It does not work with certain laptop models. It worked beautifully with one of my laptops, but not with the other.

"Easy to use, one problem i had. "
It was easy enough to use, does what it says and shuts off the electricity to your devices when you power them off. One thing though, is the lights on the power strip are always on. Does that power usage outweigh the power saved by using this smart switch? Has anyone done the calculation to see how much electricity is saved? Or how many devices you have to plug into it in order to off set how much is used by the power strip?

"Great money saving device"
Saves my PC from using 50watts all of the time. Purchased two of them, both work great.

"Money Saver"
Once you get the power strip set up, it will save you money on your power bill. Mine paid for themselves in three months.

"Very cool power strip"
I ordered a couple of these power strips, along with the Kill-A-Watt device, and have been very happy with the function and value!

I used one on my entertainment center. The Kill-A-Watt helped me identify my DVD carousel player was vamping about 4-5W in "off" mode. Plus some other devices.. 1W here, 1W there. My sub was already plugged into my switched outlet on the receiver so that wasn't an issue. Although I previously had it in the wall.. But you may have a similar situation.

So now I've got my receiver plugged into the control port, everything else is in the switched. Works great.

With the other unit I had planned to plug my laptop into it.. and while my laptop draws anywhere from 24-40 watts, it didn't seem to be enough to actually "switch" the unit. So I'm back to my regular power strip there. Now I just turn it off when the laptop is off. It seems this might be the same problem reported by the previous "iMac" user. Seems if the device doesn't draw enough power it won't switch the switch. And yes I tried the adjustment knob maxed both ways.

All in all very satisfied with the unit. Works for my entertainment center and that's what I was most concerned with. And the payback will be < 1 year.

What our customer's say!

"Better than expected!!", My computer is plugged into the control outlet. When I standby computer all those little power suckers, modem, cordless phone, printer, battery charger, speakers, etc. are turned off. Simple and effective. I don't know if it will ever pay for itself in energy savings, but it already has in good feelings. You need one of these.

"Works fine but not with Directv H20 as controller", Works as advertised, nice spacing of outlets, and saves money. The only glitch for me was that my Directv hd receiver (not the DVR version) wouldn't work as the controlling outlet. I guess the power draw of that device is about the same whether its on or off, so no amount of adjustment would work.

"Works like a charm!", The Smart Strip is worth every penny! I bought two, one for the TV and components and one for the computer and components. There is little setup involved, only real decision is figuring out which unit to make the switching outlet; in my case it was the TV and computer. When the TV or computer is turned on, the autoswitching turns on the other components. This is the best part of the Smart Strip; simple and easy. These units have worked very well. The Smart Strip can be seen working with the indicator lights of whether the strip is operating and whether the switched outlets are operating. Great product while saving you money!

"simplicity", This is not your average surge strip,you have one main controlling
plug & when it's turned off all other peripherials are put in slow draw mode plus it has plenty of always on plugs.
I own two & will purchase more.

"Every bit helps", I have been using the Smart Strip for about 6 months now. I was given the unit by the inventor. He told me that although it is manufactured in China (like so much else we buy) he had personally inspected the factory and was confident that the working conditions and environmental safety standards were good.

I have connected my PC, external hard drive, 2 monitors, speakers, USB hub and camera dock to the Smart Strip. Everything shuts down smoothly. The only peripheral that does not automatically come back on when I turn on my PC is the external hard drive, but I feel that is a small penalty to pay for the savings on both power and heat-generation from the vampire devices. For my remaining bank of device chargers - for phone, ipod, headset etc. - I have them on a power strip that I can easily reach to turn off when nothing is connected. With a small bit of reorganization of your devices, you can make a great difference to your energy consumption. A great idea.

"Swanky", This power strip is a little pricy, but it's way cool.
Excellent way to save the environment, and help save you money!

"Halfed my electic bill in 1 month", Bought three of these for 2 computers and one entertainment center. My electric bill went from 650 kilowatts to 291 in one month.

"Power strip", The service was great, the installation was fast, and most importantly, it works. Worth the investment.

"Great Product", Great Product. Automatically switches off your peripherals when you switch off the contolled item. I plugged in my speakers and printers to the controlled outlets, my computer to the constant power and my monitor to the control outlet. Now I just turn off the monitor and the peripherals go off too.

"A surge protector that pays for itself?", I set up (follow the directions--simple, but must be done right) and used this item for only a day but so far it could be my best, wisest purchase. Everything attached to my PC and Mac that is not needed when my host computer shuts down--is automatically turned off with it. All those transformers and blinking lights are off till needed. Only regret: I did not know of this product sooner and already purchased standard surge protectors for the rest of the house. Time will tell...but we like it so much already! If all goes well, this product will replace all other surge protectors.
