The manual is not clear as to how to use this strip. All items plugged into this strip are ran by the main item plugged into the blue plug (control plug). from Amazon.com I love this auto-sensing power strip. Not only does it offer surge protection, but it works as advertised, turning off all devices automatically after I turn off my tv. from Amazon.com Power cord is substantial enough for a laser printer. Perhaps 15 years ago, Radio Shack also sold well-built master/slave power strips, but they are far too easily confused by modern products with substantial peak current drains when nominally powered off. from Amazon.com Works great. I had been crawling under my computer table to turn off the power strip at night. Now it does it by itself. from Amazon.com I like the idea of the strip turning off and saving me money, but the plugs are too close together. The point of a big power strip with so many outlets is to plug in lots of things in an area that is relatively dense with power needs. from Amazon.com This is really the best power strip for TV or computer setup. Pros: from Amazon.com Wasn't very useful for the bedroom either due to the need for constant on for the clock, radio, light, and fan. I would suggest purchasing one and see how it works first then purchase more as needed. Energy savings have yet to be calculated but I imagine the strip will pay for itself in under a year. Which makes it worth it to me. from Amazon.com Ultimately nothing helped. Maybe it was defective but I didn't want to spend another $8 sending it back for a replacement. What I have ended up with is the use of a conventional power strip. I plug the computer into an "always on" outlet so that I can switch the peripherals without waiting for the computer to power down. from Amazon.com No problems with these strips. Been actually buying them for presents to family members. from Amazon.com According to my wife, we had one minor glitch where the always on plug started going off and the DVR failed to record a program. But since we've restarted the power strip, we haven't had a problem like that since (knock on wood). Pros: from Amazon.com
