Energy Saving Surge Protectors
A Tier 1 Advanced PowerStrip saves energy by reducing the amount of standby power & vampire current wasted by home AV systems and Desktop PC systems.
How It Works
A sensor monitors the flow of electricity to the Control Outlet and when there is a significant drop,
it switches off the power to the Switched Outlets.
So when your control device/appliance goes into sleep mode or you shut it off, the Smart Strip saves energy and money!
Control Outlet
Controls the Switched Outlets
Plug a control device/appliance—such as a TV or computer—into the Control Outlet.
Constant Outlets
Always on regardless
of the Control Outlet
Plug in devices/appliances that you do not want to turn off into the Always On Outlets, such as routers, cable-boxes or satellite receivers.
Switched Outlets
Activated by the Control Outlet
Plug in the devices/appliances that you want to save energy on—into the Automatically Switched Outlets—such as printers, monitors DVD players game stations and home theater systems.
