iGo Green Power Smart Wall

October 19, 2011

I talked about a portable power strip last week and this week I want to look at a different one that can save you some money. When you have something plugged in to a regular strip, it is always drawing power even when it isn’t being used. The term for it is vampire power. One solution is to get a power strip that will shut down when it isn’t being used. The iGo Green Power Small Wall is one such power strip. You don’t want to use something like this on everything, but if used on things like phone chargers, it can pay for itself over time in power saved.
