Smart Strip

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I was recently asked to review the Smart Strip Power Strip with Surge Protection by BITS Limited.  The one I received was 7 outlets with Fax/Modem/Phone protection which sells for $30.44 at CableOrganizer.com.  They also come in 10 outlet strips and both are also available without the Fax/Modem/Phone protection.

The first thing that impressed me was the transformer switch or outlet.  It’s set a little apart from the rest of the outlets to allow the extra room for a transformer like those that come with phones and modems.

The Smart Strip comes with 3 colored sections of outlets.  Blue is a control which will stop any power to that item when it’s turned off.  No more Idle Current going to that item which in turn increases your power usage.  The white outlets are for items that you want to have off when the controlled item is off.  The red outlets are always hot or always on.

The Smart Strip  cuts out an average of 113 Kilowatts monthly from your utility bills which will pay for itself in no time.  The Smart Strip makes great gifts for anybody on your holiday gift list.
