Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"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!"
I never buy stuff from Monster. They are too corporate and too overpriced. I try to use small online retailers for my cables and that kind of thing--I have a much better idea of who I am giving my money to, and the build quality is much, much better (in my experience).
that sucks they are doing this right before the holiday. insane.
