Protection and Power-Efficiency Save You Money and Worry
The Smart Strip LCG3
You don't want your power strip to eat up power, but you also want assurance that your equipment is safe from harsh power surges. Ideal for computer systems and home entertainment centers, the Smart Strip LCG3 employs a proprietary auto-switching technology that automatically shuts down devices that are not in use, saving you money and reducing your overall energy usage.
The Smart Strip has 10 clearly marked outlets that you plug your computer or home entertainment center peripherals into. When you power down your computer or stereo, the Smart Strip automatically shuts down the power to your computer's and entertainment's center peripherals. This unique feature not only saves you money and helps the environment, it also makes shutting down your systems fast and easy.
Unlike most power strips, the Smart Strip itself uses very little energy. It uses one watt of power when fully engaged and less than ¼ of a watt when the automatically switched outlets are off.
Advanced Surge Protection with Superior EMI/RFI Filter
Power strips without EMI/RFI (Electromagnetic Interference/Radio Frequency Interference) run the risk of allowing waves from one electronic device to cause malfunctions or interference in another. The Smart Strip LCG3 protects you from this risk with its advanced EMI/RFI filter, backed up by a 15 AMP circuit breaker and two frequency-sensitive RC filters that eliminate false switching. Plus, a passive current sensor ensures an ultra-safe, ultra-clean switching off and on of your peripherals, giving you added peace of mind that your valuable electronics will remain safe.
The possible hazards of power surges are further prevented with 4380-joule surge protection and 84,000 AMP protection, both of which employ a three-way design to give you the ultimate protection for your valuable equipment.
Designed for Convenience and Ease of Use
The Smart Strip LCG3's widely spaced, clearly marked outlets give you the space and ease to connect all necessary equipment. The four-way wall mountable design, 90° space-saver plug, and heavy-duty four-foot power cord offer the versatility to place the power strip wherever it is most convenient, so it never gets in the way of your footpath or your home décor. A lighted power switch keeps the strip visible, so you're never left fumbling in the dark.
The Smart Strip LCG3 is backed by a full two-year warranty for defects.
Energy Saving Power Strip:
- Provides a safe, uninterrupted power supply
- Auto-switches devices on and off to save energy
- Uses less than one watt of power when fully energized
- Offers an EMI/RFI filter and 15 AMP circuit breaker
- Delivers 4380-joule and 84,000 AMP protection

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
I didn't have to adjust the "trigger" amperage, the factory setting worked fine when with my receiver plugged into the blue "control" plug.
It's been working for a week now. Fingers crossed it keeps working unlike the other things I've tried (see below).
I'd tried a different "smart" power strip: Tricklestar which failed after about a month.
Then I tried a "smart" plug: SmartThings by Samsung. That worked fine for a few years, but that stopped working recently. Possibly because Samsung decided it wasn't in the smart plug business anymore so their servers aren't working? Not sure, it stopped working and I couldn't fix it no matter what I tried (resetting the plug, removing the plug: when I tried that I couldn't add it back!).
This power strip is more expensive than the Tricklestar, so hopefully that means it's better quality.
Both amps are plugged into this Bits LTD Smart Strip's switched outlets, with the receiver as the master. I turned the sensitivity screw up a bit.
Power on the receiver, both amps come right up. Power it off, they go to sleep for a fraction of a second then power down.
Detailed setup if you're a HT buff:
My signal chain goes like so:
Yamaha RX-V575 Sub out -> MiniDSP ->
Outs 1 & 2 to Crown XLS 1002 -> 2x Nearfield Subwoofers
Outs 3 & 4 to Crown XLS 1502 ->2x Front Subwoofers
With no trigger out I set the USB port on the back to cycle with the receiver, and cut an old USB cable to feed a relay which goes to a Phoenix connector on the back of the 1002. Then I just daisy chained another one off that same terminal block to the 1502 which is stacked on top.
Oh and I run my wiring to the two nearfields behind the couch crammed into a small raceway with my surround speaker wires as well. Audiophile blasphemy but I hear no detrimental effects lol.
As for energy hogs like a plasma TV and DVR, if you are smart and have a central power management unit, there is no way to use this without killing the power to everything. The DVR has to stay on all the time to record programs, so you either have to separate the TV from the central power management unit defeating the purpose of conditioning the circuit or kill the entire center. I don't really care about the clocks on the DVD player (why do they still put a clock on these things all they do is burn out the LED's on the little screen?), but I don't want to separate anything from the central power unit. Maybe Belkin and Monster will come up with something that works for those devices, since they can still draw up to 30% power even when they are off.
One caveat for computer devices...if you have laser printers, make sure you use it as the main power source on this. You should not kill the power to a laser printer without turning off the power button first. You will use up a considerable amount of toner and add extra wear to the drum unit as the printer will have to recharge the drum using extra toner. Most printers are have a pretty decent power save mode and most manufacturers don't really recommend turning them off anyway.
Overall, I think the concept of these power saving strips can create some significant savings; however, $25-30 for each strip means you need to have a considerable amount of power draw from the devices that are plugged in to justify the cost vs. return. If you use it for a few flourescent lamps, it's a waste of money, but for the right combination of devices, you may get your money back. You can buy a regular surge protector and just hit the power button on it as easily as you can turn the power off of one device to get the same results. These are first generation and have great potential, just don't buy one to avoid bending down to turn off a surge protector.

I use it to turn on and off other components in my home theater.
