Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 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.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 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 ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Let's see
Does what it says on the box. Just waiting to see the $avings on my Electric bill until then I'll give it a few months before my next review.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Electric Savings
I have been sceptical about purchasing over priced surge protectors, but I have to say after using this item for 2 months I have seen a drop in my electric bill and can only point to this device. I am running receiver, HDTV, DVD, Cable Box and 2 lights on this device and it works great. I feel comfortable that when I turn off the TV everything goes with it and excess power is not being consumed. I would recommend this to anyone looking for some savings.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - longer delay needed as de-bounce function
Sense outlet is connected to my TV, and it works properly... As advertised.

However, I would have expected a de-bouncing circuit or delay on the switched outlets... My Westinghouse 37" display causes the switched outlets to bounce twice during a power on. Bummer, and sensitivity adjustment doesn't help.

Saves me lots of power, couldn't get my family to turn off the amplifiers for the HT system when they were done watching without this.
