Belkin Surge Protector with Timer


This new surge protector has 2 always-on outlets, and six that are on an 11-hour timer. For many folks, it could turn off all those parasite power supplies for printers, cordless phones, hubs, etc. daily after you're done working. They're promoting it for corporate office environments, but I think it is prefect for a work at home office also.
Products & Solutions - Belkin - Conserve Surge with Timer:
"Imagine an office where electronics turn themselves off at the end of the day. The Belkin Conserve Surge with Timer is a cost- and energy-saving solution for businesses that want to save money and invest in technology that reduces their carbon footprint. It helps eliminate wasted power right at the workstation—where nearly half of all IT energy costs originate.

Because it limits power consumption right at the workstation, the Conserve Surge Protector empowers IT managers to control cost and employees to contribute to a greener office environment. Businesses can save money without compromising employee productivity."
Available for $34.99 at Newegg.com and similar prices at many other stores.
