The Smart Power Strip. So are we talking Einstein here or what? Power surge protection, noise filtering and a sophisticated microprocessor based system to turn off your peripherals when a central device (e.g. a PC)is switched off. Great way to save electricity and possibly your equipment in an emergency. $34.95. [Thanks Kari]
The Smart Strip Power Strip features advanced circuitry that not only offers excellent power surge protection and line noise filtering, but is actually able to ‘sense’ the flow of electrical current through the strip’s control outlet. Because of this unique ability, the Smart Strip can turn off selected equipment when its not in use — creating benefit that no other power strip on the market today can offer.
I love this but the one thing I do not get is this. If I leave my pc on but doing nothing it will look like its a peripheral that isn’t doing anything and turn it off- right?
