Monster GreenPower Stops Standby Mode Energy Waste and Saves Money

Complete protection for your A/V gear

Keep All of Your AV Equipment Safe with Advanced Dual Mode Plus Surge Protection

Common surges and spikes can easily damage or destroy the delicate circuitry in your AV equipment. The HDP 900G PowerCenter™ provides the advanced protection you need to keep all your valuable equipment protected against even the most powerful surges.

Exclusive Dual Mode Plus automatically disconnects to isolate your equipment from harmful surges and spikes. It also sounds an alarm to let you know that the PowerCenter has protected your electronics from dangerous power conditions.

Complete Protection for All Connections

All of a component’s inputs and outlets need to be protected, or the entire system will be vulnerable. Dangerous surges and spikes can travel on your coax connections to damage your AV equipment. The Monster HDP 900G features comprehensive protection with coax connections for cable, satellite or antenna protection to keep all your connected equipment safe.

Patented HD Clean Power Removes Noise and Interference to Protect Your AV Equipment and Maximize Performance

Your home’s electricity is full of noise and interference caused by all of your appliances and electronics: cell phones, computers, even your lights, all contribute to the problem. This "dirty power" stresses the delicate digital circuitry inside HDTVs and other home theater equipment, reducing their performance and potentially shortening their lives. However, ordinary surge protectors can’t remove the effects of dirty power.

The HDP 900G features patented HD Clean Power filtering that is precision-engineered to remove electrical noise and interference. This protects the delicate circuitry inside your HDTV and other electronics from unnecessary wear. HD Clean Power maximizes your equipment’s lifespan and ensures the best possible picture and sound performance.

Automatically Save Money and Reduce Energy Waste with Monster GreenPower

Your DVD player, HDTV and other electronics continue to use power even after you’ve turned them off, wasting energy in stand-by mode. Monster GreenPower™ eliminates energy waste and saves money by automatically switching off outlets.

Simply plug your TV or AV receiver into the 900G’s GreenPower Control outlet and plug your other AV equipment into the GreenPower switched outlets.

Whenever you turn off your HDTV or AV receiver, the GreenPower switched outlets automatically switch off to eliminate unnecessary electricity waste by your DVD player, subwoofer and other equipment. When you turn your HDTV back on, the GreenPower outlets automatically switch on again so the rest of your equipment is powered up and ready to use.

Even better, GreenPower automatic outlet switching makes it easy and convenient to save energy and money without having to manually switch off individual components.

Powerline Network Compatible

Powerline Communication, also known as HomePlug® , is a revolutionary home network system that works on your home’s existing electrical wiring. Ordinary surge protectors can block PLC signals, but the Monster HDP 900G is engineered to allow full-speed PLC network communications.

This review is from: MONSTER MP HDP 900G Power HD Green Power Center (Electronics)

Before I decided to invest in one of these, I was using a normal surge protector bought from walmart or the like - for my computer multimedia center. There was a storm one day that knocked the power out causing a surge frying both my CPU and causing a few of my speakers to pop. Unfortunately, my cpu was gone, but my speakers still worked. I then decided to invest in this. I got it for around 80-90$ on amazon. A few days after I received and installed it, I got another power outage. This time, the strip itself started beeping, letting me know that it had just protected against a surge. Everything connected to it was protected.

Just some background on the "green power." It basically uses one of the outlets as a switch. If that particular outlet is powered (such as your monitor/tv/computer) then the other 3 on the same side are powered too. Once power is turned off, the 3 that are linked to it are also turned off. Im not sure how much this really saves since it eliminates "vampire energy usage." I use my computer as the main switch, with my printer, monitor and speaker system as the other switch. Once i turn on or off my computer, the other 3 components are also turned on or off. Very convenient. However if you do not want it for any reason, the option can be turned off manual from the side switch.

Another thing I would like to comment on is the clean power. I have a very old vacuum that uses an unusual amount of power to run. Before this strip, vacuuming would make the screen of my monitor fuzzy and glitchy. After this strip, there is a significant reduction in how much "static" I guess you could call it, to none.

Overall I would definitely recommend this if you have delicate audio or video equipment you wish to protect. 80-90, even 120 is a good price compared to the repair costs to your equipment it may save you.

Good product, but a couple issue. My samsung 7.2 channel receiver will not work as the main shutoff for the other green outlets. And it will erase all setting in your blu-ray player when it cuts the power off completely. So you have to plug those pieces of equipment that same settings and info into one of the none green outlets.

This unit allows you to reduce power consumption (Cost of operation) for the devices plugged into special controlled outlets. By using a "Master Controller" device plugged into a special outlet, other devices are powered down when the master device is turned off, saving operating costs. If you are looking for a way to save a little energy and money on operating costs this is a good choice but beware, it depends on your setup. I only power up my surround sound system when I'm watching DVD's, or want to listen to local FM radio or music CD's. If I plug the surround sound system into one of the controlled outlets the surround sound system cannot be powered up with its controller unless the master device is turned on. So in my case, that would be the TV. Makes no sense to power on the TV to listen to a music CD or local FM radio! The unit has outlets that are not controlled. My surround sound system is plugged into one of the uncontrolled outlets. For those that ALWAYS channel the TV sound through the surround sound system then this unit makes much more sense and probably would save on energy costs. One final note...you would not want to plug TIVO or a PVR unit into the controlled outlets either since turning off the TV (Master device) would turn off these devices as well. Currently, I am only using one of the controlled outlets to control power to a fan that circulates air inside my TV cabinet. This unit would be ideal for those that have 3 separate components. (1) TV channeling sound all the time through a (2) separate surround sound system and a (3) separate DVD or Blu-Ray player. Your PVR/Tivo, FM/AM Receiver and DVR would use the uncontrolled outlets.
