Smart Power Strip Saves Money

A Smart Power Strip   can save money and electricity by preventing  “phantom electric loads”.  The one I recommend  has 7 outlets that work together, auto-switching your devices (computer, TV, peripherals,) on and off automatically by sensing when the devices are not in use. Another nice feature is that the outlets are placed at 45 degree angles so you can plug cords in next to other with ease. The website claims that the Smart Power Strip will pay for itself in as little as 6 weeks.

This power strip also has fax and modem surge protection which will protect your equipment from power spikes. The best price I found was on Amazon.com, you can check it out HERE. There are several different Smart Power Strips to choose from, priced from $19.95 – $31.16.

Remember, with $25.00 or more at Amazon.com, you qualify for free shipping so if you choose an item under $25.00, it may be worth it to add a small item to qualify for the free shipping.

Plasma TV are huge energy users. You can save $150.00 or more a year by unplugging your plasma or using a Smart Power Strip when not in use. Just remember that your Tivo or DVR shows will not record if the power is switched off.

If you are a practical gift- giver like me, this is a gift that someone will appreciate every time the electric bill arrives!
