Belkin’s Surge Protector

Belkin’s Surge Protector

This is one gadget which allows you to shut down all the gadgets which use phantom power – power that you do not even realize is being used. This power is totally wasted, just because some devices are always on. If you want to be environmentally friendly, you need to conserve electricity.

For instance in the kitchen your microwave may come with a timer which will always be glowing in the dark. So will your television, your entertainments center, your modem and various other gadgets. Some of them have a little red light which glows in the dark and you just have to use the remote to switch them on.

Any appliance with a delayed timer like a microwave, an oven, a washing machine, a dishwasher or any other gadget which is set to come ‘on’ at a particular time will be consuming some electricity. Surprisingly, together all these gadgets/appliances manage to suck out a lot of electricity. If you connect these to Belkin’s surge protector, which has eight protectors, six of which can be completely switched off and two which will be on stand-by mode, you may be able to save between 15% and 20% of your power bills.

This one comes with a remote, so it becomes even easier to use – no more excuses for not switching off.
