I had originally planned to use a Kill-A-Watt, but just went straight to the smart strip.

The Kill-A-Watt helped me identify my DVD carousel player was vamping about 4-5W in "off" mode

Get a Kill-A-Watt and look at power usage when you are planning to use a power strip like this.

Worked as it was supposed to from the first plug in.

It would have been nice if this would have worked as it's supposed to

This product works as it says it does
