Tools and Hardware Reviews of Smart Strip SCG3 Energy Saving Power Strip with Autoswitching TechnologyCustomer Review: Autoswitch not working after ~ 2years on the job Summary: 2 Stars
This used to be a fairly trustworthy product, but about 2 years after I purchased it, its now useless. the autoswitching feature does not work, even when I set it to maximum sensitivity. The pieces that are plugged into the 'automatically switched outlets' never turn on.
Even before this, the unit was a little flaky - now it's completely shot.
Customer Review: My Smart Strip Summary: 5 Stars
I wanted a protective power strip for my new LED TV. When I saw that the Smart Strip also provided an energy saving feature I knew that I wanted to have one for my application. I have not noticed any savings in power costs, however I only use this one and I haven't had it that long. Excellent product, well thought out design, and it works just as advertised.
Customer Review: Worked for 4 years and then loud buzzing sound and blown my speaker fuse Summary: 2 Stars
Loved this product for 4 years until it suddenly started buzzing (really loud!) and it also blows the fuse of my speakers too. I thought power strips lasts forever. Had to switch back to a regular power surge strip -- painful to turn off my PC, speakers, monitors one by one but had this older strip for much longer than the SCG3. It was also cheaper too.
Customer Review: Smart strip Summary: 5 Stars
Smart strip is a smart idea. No more phantom stealing of power. When you power down the tv which is the main
component of this setup, everything powers off as well including my strip lights and all the peripherals. I'm very happy with this purchase, I'm going to buy more for my other setups. Great price on Amazon with free shipping.
Customer Review: Just as advertised. Summary: 5 Stars
Works exactly as described. When I turn off the TV, the sound system, DVD player, etc. all go off as well. I have the satellite box plugged into one of the "always on" outlets so that I don't have to wait for it to come up again. When I left for a couple of weeks at Christmas time, I simply hit the master switch and turned everything off.
