NOTE:  This is no ordinary power strip.  Three outlets always have power, but Power is only permitted to the two automatically switched outlets when the Control Outlet is drawing power.  Use this to save power in that the DVD, VCR, Cable Modem are only provided power when the TV is on.  Just turn the TV on or off, and the other devices on the Automatically switched devices do the same.  Use it to turn off your monitor when the PC shuts down.  Saves money and the planet by reducing wasted energy.   Protects your appliances with 1225 Joules of Surge Arresting capacity.
