Summary: New interesting energy saving technology
Comment: I was not aware of this new energy saving technology. It takes the work of shutting down every day every regular power strip at my home.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Works Great
Comment: Worked great out of the box. Very easy to setup, and looks great too. The only quirk in my setup is that my Sony Bravia TV is the controlling unit; the TV turns on to show the Bravia screen, and then goes into a low power mode briefly before tuning the input (e.g. TV) at full power. During the brief low power mode, the controlled units which switched on with the TV will switch off before coming back on when the TV hits full power. Not a big deal, but then again this is driven by the power-on design of my TV.
I am pleased with how this device works.

Summary: GRRR
Comment: I have cable. If you plan on using this with a stupid cable box that your cable company requires (even though your tv can get QAM broadcasts, sorry venting here), and which saps unnecessary energy, you are out of luck. Because, if you plug your cable box into this unit to turn off automatically with the tv, you will have to wait while it initializes your channels all over again each and every time you turn on your tv. Buyer beware. Also doesn't work if your computer goes into sleep mode. It really became ineffective for any purpose I would have.... so 2 stars. Nice concept...but unrealistic with how electronics operate these days. Back to the regular Belkin.

Summary: Energy Saver
Comment: Last night I hooked up my home theatre and laptop with this strip. It worked great. I read review people had hard time in setting adjustment. But for me it was just one turn and everything works fine as expected. I connected my TV in control outlet and rest (Receiver, subwoofer and PC)in switched outlets. Turn off TV turns off every switched outlet device.

Summary: Works well for remote desktop connections on XP
Comment: Before I forget to write... Purchased if off GoldBox a
few weeks ago.
This unit worked out of the box for my application, no tweaking
or setup was required; A Dell Desk-side being accessed remotely
from a Dell Laptop. I do not use "suspend" as my disk image is
to large for a reliable suspend image.
I control 2 printers, 2 scanners, 2(+) USB HDDs', 2 LCD Monitors
and items as needed (such as MP players, Watcom tablets) with
no problems.
It is set this way as I am lazy and use the laptop late at night and
no longer have to get my buttocks out of bed to shut down the
system. I use the command line "shutdown" command remotely to turn
off the desk-side (I no longer use "wake on LAN" due to the
aforementioned suspend issue) as I find it convenient to hit
the power on the desk-side when required. This type of setup,
obviously, will not be the case for everyone. Hum... a "wake on
LAN" Ethernet port on the switch might be an interesting product enhancement??
For this application the unit is a dream and has faded into the
normal day to day operation and goes unnoticed, which is
a very good thing.
Best,
Joe
