"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
The DIRECTV H20 does run HOT - even when it's turned off. However it certainly looks and feels more State-of-the-Art than say Comcast's HD Receiver. Just wish DirecTv would add more HD-channels like Starz-HD.
