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 wouldn't use it, but that's the kind of item I could recommend to my parents or in-laws. Heck, for that price I could give it as a gift and set it up for them.
This is the kind of item that's not intended for the faithful EngadgetHD reader, but for the parents of faithful EngadgetHD readers. :)
