Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Works perfect Comment: My Samsung LCD TV controls the rest of my AV system. Works perfect every time. No adjustment necessary. Customer Rating: Summary: Great if you get a recent model - but there are multiple versions of this product Comment: Beware that there are multiple revisions of this surge protector. The first 2 I got came in fairly old school packaging (boring blue box, no mention of equipment warranty) and they did not work very well. Within a few days usage the sensitive adjustment would keep on decreasing its effectiveness until basically the unit was on all the time regardless of the power draw. The third one I got came in a blue/green box with a slick logo and a mention of the equipment warranty - it works great! It's really fantastic and once calibrated it works perfectly with my PC whether it is a low power sleep mode or a complete power down. The manual does mention that some of the internal specifications are different, but other than that there are no model number difference or physical markings that I can see which would different the old versus the new model. It is sort of a gamble on Amazon if you will get the new version; the ones I got were purchased around 10/2009 and hopefully the inventory moves fast. Customer Rating: Summary: Pretty Smart Comment: For the most part, I am very happy with this product. The testing that I have completed thus far had this power strip connected to a laptop docking station. This unit does indeed save energy, but the docking station power draw is so small that it is difficult to set the on/off adjustment so that the controlled outlets remain on when the laptop is on and off when the laptop is off. I am currently testing it on a desktop machine, and am having no such difficulties. All in all, it works as advertised. Customer Rating: Summary: Simple way to kill power to a problem TV set Comment: This device works wonderfully in my situation; a wonderful TV set that has a troubled standby mode. My television searches for updates to cable channels. Constantly. With a LOUD high pitched whine. As long as it is plugged into power. The issue is that I don't watch broadcast or cable TV of any kind, and as a result it isn't hooked up to an antenna or cable. As the TV cannot /find/ any signals, it remains in autopgramming standby as long as it is plugged in and not fully on. (This is an issue with this discontinued Phillips TV.) This simple device, with the TV on one of the power dependent outlets, allows me to easily kill power to it when our home reciever isn't on. A far cheaper solution than ditching an otherwise wonderful movie/game room TV. I'm not convinced that it does much to reduce our power bills, but it is an effective solution for devices that don't handle standby mode well. 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. This might be necessary for a controlling device that doesn't draw a lot of power. Keep that in mind. Easily a 4.5 purchase, with half a point deducted due to the garrish bright red and blue on some of the switches. I'm glad it is hidden behind a large mahoghany cabinet. Customer Rating: Summary: These really work Comment: I purchased 3 of these. I use one with a TV/gaming system, two with a computer systems. All three of them work great. I plugged the computer into the master plug and all of the periferals into the controlled switches. Now when I shut down the computer the monitor, printer, external DVD, speakers and external hard drive all shut down on their own. I love that.
