Click for more Info New at KCES - the SmartStrip® All electronics draw some power even when they are in sleep mode or turned off. For example, a computer monitor uses up to 30 watts even in sleep mode. That adds up to about $26.67 a year* in energy costs. Other computer peripherals and home entertainment equipment can draw over 50 watts when off. It's easy to see that the energy being consumed by all of your "sleeping" electronics really adds up. The advanced technology in the Smart Strip® combined surge protection with automatic power control. It automatically turns off power to printers, DVD players, and other electronics when they are not in use, saving electricity and money.
