This unit is also surprisingly bulky and not easy to slip behind your equipment if you have a shallow shelf system for your home theater stuff.

Unit works

These units have worked very well.

This unit works very well.

If I had only one, I would suspect a bad unit

So far, the unit works exactly as described.

I highly recommend this unit.

The unit worked as advertised for 2 days and then the switched outlets no longer responded to the master outlet.

But having exchanged the unit, the new one worked perfectly

If you have a surge protectors or power strip that just has "dummy" devices plugged in, this unit works great.

For flawless operation, I like the APC unit better than the SmartBits because you do not need to fiddle with adjustments

I recommend this unit to everybody.

The unit worked right out of the box, but also has a potentiometer that can easily be adjusted to dial in the sensitivity on the controlling powerport

When I turn the power off to my surround sound, this unit senses the drop in power consumption from the surround sound and kills power to my tv, vcr, dvd player, dvd recorder,playstation, and a/v diverter.
