Tools and Hardware Reviews of Smart Strip LCG5 Energy Saving Power Strip with Auto-Switching Technology and Modem/Coaxial Surge Protection
Customer Review: Using with computer, monitor, speakers
Summary: 5 Stars
One of the main reason I got this was that I have a really nice set of desktop speakers for my computer but they don't have an easy power switch. The only way to turn them on and off is on the sub, which I have under my desk.
So I plugged in my monitor and speakers to the controlled outlets, and my computer to the main outlet and presto. Now when I sleep/turn off my PC the monitor and speakers turn off.
Great product.
I did have to adjust it slightly, but since they included that ability it works perfect!
Customer Review: Works as advertised
Summary: 5 Stars
I ordered 2 of these and 2 of the smaller version. These were for my computer systems. Setup was easy and the always on outlets made it easy to plug in the modem and wireless router so that they could continue transmit even when the computer, monitor, printer, and speakers were deactivated. I recommend that you start out with the main device turned on and then adjust the dial until it turns off the dependent outlets. Then turn it back just to the point where they are turned back on. I suspect that I will see quite a savings from these.Customer Review: Smart Strip LCG5 Energy Saving power strip - good product
Summary: 5 Stars
I've read a couple of reviews that seemed to be of a negative nature for this product but THIS PRODUCT WORKS FINE FOR ME. You just have to know the capabilities and how to use it! That means...READ THE DIRECTIONS! The power adjustment knob is a little touchy at times and sometimes it doesn't cut the power when you'd like but if you spend a few minutes and have patience when you're adjusting it, it's easy to get it right. Once again, if it's not working for you READ THE DIRECTIONS, you're probably doing something wrong.Customer Review: Works great
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this auto-sensing power strip. Not only does it offer surge protection, but it works as advertised, turning off all devices automatically after I turn off my tv. Great for entertainment components that draw power even when turned off, like amps and subwoofers and dvd players, etc. Now all my units power down completely when I turn off my tv to save electricity and go into standby mode only when I turn on my tv so that they can also be used if desired.Customer Review: great for baby monitor, radio
Summary: 5 Stars
I use this for a baby monitor that I like to keep on top of the refrigerator. Rather than leave it on when not needed I can use the remote and switch it off without having to climb on a stool to get to it! It is also great for a radio I regularly use but that when "off" it has all kinds of lights and a clock that I don't need. This way, off means OFF! I just put a piece of black tape over the clock so I don't see the blinking 12:00 when I do turn it on!
