SCG & LCG series - "The Original" Smart Strip

The original-and by far the most popular-LCG & SCG series Smart Strips were designed to simplify your electronic life and enormously cut down on your power expenses on certain electronic devices. The Smart Strip does it by sensing the current in one outlet, and smartly switching on or off the rest. Turn your TV on, and the Smart Strip turns everything else on with it. Have your computer hibernate, and everything else will shutdown the same second. Besides this, the LCG & SCG Smart Strips are an outstanding surge protector, which not only blocks out dangerous power surges but ‘scrubs' your line power for smoother operation and longer life expectancy for anything plugged into it. As if this wasn't enough, its ergonomic design allows regular plugs to sit right next to large ‘wall warts', while its 45 degree-angle flat plug resists damaging your wall or your furniture-or accidentally being unplugged. The recessed power switch is next to impossible to switch off accidentally and it is a 15A breaker.

CCG series - "Child Safety" Smart Strip

The CCG model Smart Strip was designed for the parents that have curious children. Besides being a Smart Strip with the energy saving technology, surge protection and EMI/RFI filtering, the CCG series also offers child-safe outlets! The CCG series has locking outlet covers to prevent our young ones from sticking anything in an unused outlet. When you want to use an outlet you simply slide the lock to the open position and when you are not using an outlet you slide the lock to the closed position.

SPG3 & LPG3 series - "Charging Station" Smart Strip

These Charging Stations were designed so you can set all of your rechargeable battery powered devices to charge without the fear of wasting energy. The SPG3 & LPG3 prevent idle power loss and overcharging due to fully charged devices still being plugged in. The way it works is you plug in all of your chargers so the Charging Station knows how much power they are consuming WITHOUT any devices being charged. Now, plug in your devices to be charged, press the button on the side of the unit and walk away! When the last device is fully charged and stops drawing power, the Charging Station will notice the same level of power draw when there was nothing charging and automatically shut off the Charging Station to prevent idle power loss. All of this and you are still getting a top of the line surge protector.

Mini Power Minder - "2 Outlet/USB Controlled" Energy Saving Power Strip

The Mini Power Minder is a low cost solution to saving energy with your computer if you only have one or two peripherals. If you have more peripherals, need more surge protection or are going to use it on anything besides a computer, then we still recomend one of our many models of the Smart Strip. The Mini Power Minder is quite simple to set up and has a history of effectiveness! It has two outlets, LED indicators for Power ON and Secondary Outlet Power ON and a USB cable for the computer connection.

SBG & LBG series - "Brownout" Surge Protector

The ‘B' in SBG & LBG stands for ‘Brownout Protection.' It's equipped with a special control circuit that senses line voltage instead of current through a specific outlet. Brownouts can be VERY damaging to sensitive equipment such as Plasma TV's, home theater and other certain electronic devices. It is usually not something that a power strip will protect you from. However, the LBG will protect you. It also protects you from standard power surges, and it too ‘scrubs' your line power. It also comes with all of the other features of the LCG Series Smart Strip except the current sensing. Brownout damage is specifically excluded from many types of warrantees even though brownouts are more common than most people realize. Brownouts will become even more common as we push the power grid beyond its intended capacity and this power strip will save you thousands of dollars when using it on vulnerable equipment.

LEG & LUG series - "External Voltage & USB Controlled" Smart Strip (Custom Build)

The LEG and LUG are new to the Smart Strip Power Strip line. Sometimes a device has a current usage patterns that may not work well with the standard LCG series Smart Strips. These work exactly like the LCG/SCG series with having the control outlet that sense current and provides an ADDITIONAL method of power on/off detection. An external voltage control signal ranging from 4 to 24 volts will activate the Smart Strip. Even the low current draw of preamplifiers, ultra efficient computers and other low power devices now allow you to use your energy saving Smart Strip to save energy on your not so energy savvy devices. The LEG uses the standard connector found on some of the high end audio equipment or you can make your own cable for any other specialized equipment. The LUG model has a USB connector on the side of it, allowing any computer with USB to switch its peripherals on and off, and solving the challenge where extremely unusual current draws were making it undetectable by the standard Smart Strip models. Again it comes with all of the other features of the LCG Series Smart Strip that make these models a worthy addition to your home, studio, or workplace, even were it not for the convenience and electricity savings that these power strips provide.

LRG series - "Creative Applications" Smart Strip (Custom Build)

Another new model of the Smart Strip series is the LRG. When you're using the Smart Strip not just to plug stuff into, but as a piece of something you're creating, we've come up with a nifty feature. A small standard 2 wire connector on the side of the Smart Strip that when you short the connector together, it turns on the switched outlets; unshort it & it turns them off; for the hobbyist, it's a dream come true. This control signal circuit is similar to that which modern computers use which is a low voltage, low current signal to control your 120 VAC high current devices. Remember, however, that the control outlet will also still work exactly like any other Smart Strip so you can be creative in how you use this new feature. As with any other Smartstrip, the outstanding surge protection and power ‘scrubbing' ability will extend the lifespan of every electrical device plugged into it.

LTG series - "Time Delayed" Smart Strip (Custom Build)

The ‘T' in LTG Smart strips stands for ‘Time-delayed.' It's equipped with a special control circuit that senses time instead of current. The LTG series is the time-delayed ON switch that is designed to solve the problem of when item "A" needs to be up and running before item "B" even gets power. So 4 outlets come on immediately after hitting the recessed power switch and then after the user adjustable delay time passes, the remaining 6 outlets turn on. It can be adjusted anywhere between .5 to 60 seconds by the user. All of the outlets turn off at the same time when the power switch is turned off or press & hold the reset switch before turning off the power switch to have the 6 time delayed outlets turn off first. This is a perfect solution for the component based home theater system. Turn on the power switch of the Smart Strip and after a few seconds, the power amp comes on without the annoying speaker damaging pop. Press the reset button just before power down and stop the pop on the way down. It also comes with all of the other features of the LCG series Smart Strip except the current sensing outlet.

SVG series - "Dual Voltage" (110/220 Volt) Power Strip (Custom Build)

Most of today's portable electronics are designed to work on a large range of voltages from 110 VAC to 220 VAC. The problem is that all of these devices when purchased in the USA have a North American Plug. The SVG is the special-purpose power strip that provides surge protection when plugged into 110 VAC OR 220 VAC without tripping the breaker or burning up. However, you will still be protected against a damaging surge. This makes the SVG ideal for international travel, since with one power strip and one worldwide socket adapter kit you can plug in & use all of you multi voltage gadgets. If you have ever traveled outside of the U.S., you might understand what an elegant solution this provides to a frustrating problem: the inability to use American standard power strips on foreign power. In addition, it functions normally here in the United States, so it is a useful addition to any wall socket, anywhere.
