Tools and Hardware Reviews of Smart Strip LCG3 Energy Saving Surge Protector with Autoswitching Technology, 10-Outlet
Customer Review: Looks like it's working so far!
Summary: 5 Stars
I just finished installing the Smart Strip Surge Protector to try to cut down on the "phantom power" my computers are drawing when off (but not unplugged). This device arrived promptly, the directions were clear and simple, and it installed easily and worked. Originally, I thought I'd start with one device to see how it works, but I'm ordering more of these from this seller. Then, the real test will be to see whether it makes a difference in my energy usage when I get my electrical bill.Customer Review: Smart Strip LCG3 Energy Saving Surge Protector
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a very great product. I first heard about the Smart Strip on the Oprah show and waited a while until I tried it out. I just received my first electric bill after using this product and it is down $20. The only problem I had was it tripped my electricity a couple of times when i first got it but I think that was user error. Read the directions carefully before using and make sure you plug the correct thing in the the correct outlet. I would absolutely recommend this product.Customer Review: A step up from a surge protector
Summary: 5 Stars
Those of you who have used those old surge protectors that sat under your monitors to 'control' the on/off power to your monitor, printer, ext. modems, etc... listen up, this product is a step up. After plugging in the computer and its peripherals and after a little bit of tweaking the sensitivity control, powering the peripherals is a snap ! Expensive product, but counting all the times I left any one of my peripherals on for a extended period, it should eventually pay for itself.Customer Review: HDTV setup
Summary: 5 Stars
Works perfectly! I'm sure I'll start seeing savings right away since I have plethora of equipment. Setup is simple, just plug the TV i it into the controlling outlet and then the DVD player, xbox, etc... into the switching outlets. Now when I power off/on the TV everything shuts off/on with it. The nice thing about the power strip is that it has a couple of always-on outlets for recording devices - so they don't lose the date and time. This is a well thought out and simple product.Customer Review: Works as advertised for PC environment
Summary: 5 Stars
This strip works great for my PC environment. A smaller one did not work as well for my TV/Home Theater configuration because I did not think through and anticipate. If you have a TV/Home Theater configuration, please recognize that when the TV is off, then the Home Theater is not powered "On" for a CD or FM radio use. The TV needs to be powered "On" to make the CD/FM work. This is NOT a product issue; just something you need to understand when using the Smart Strip.
