Tools and Hardware Reviews of Smart Strip LCG3 Energy Saving Surge Protector with Autoswitching Technology, 10-Outlet
Customer Review: Does what it's supposed to
Summary: 4 Stars
It works. I am not sure if the cost of the adapter is saving me more many than the phantom power being drained. I suppose over the long run.Customer Review: Doesn't work as advertised
Summary: 1 Stars
It would have been nice if this would have worked as it's supposed to. I wanted to primarily use it so the subwoofer would turn off when the TV is turned off. I was also trying to use it on 2 powered speakers and 2 wireless game adapters. Despite following the directions, adjusting the sensitivity did not make any of the units turn off. There wasn't any further adjustment to try. It's going back to Amazon.Customer Review: Don't buy
Summary: 1 Stars
Worked at first but after a few months the autoshut off feature just stopped working and no amount of adjustment made a difference. Just get a normal power strip and reach down and turn it off!Customer Review: Don't buy this product, it fails and they don't honor the warranty
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought an LCG3 from Amazon just over a year ago. The stip worked great for some time, then suddenly stopped turning off switched devices. I tried many times adjusting the trimming knob, but it does not help. I've tried multiple times to contact BITS customer support, but get absolutely no response. Not even an acknowledgement of my email. There is no support phone number on the website, just an email form. The box says the strip has a 2-year warranty, but I have no idea how to get it replaced since customer support will not even respond. Very unhappy with this product.Customer Review: Don't get one for a Samsung HD TV
Summary: 3 Stars
I purchased this Smart Strip so that game systems, etc would turn off when I turned off my Samsung TV.
The TV seems to go to such a low power state during simple activities, like if the screen is black, or when switching inputs, that the power strip thinks that it's turning off...
This becomes an even bigger problem, because the Samsung doesn't recognize an input unless it is receiving a signal...so if the machine turns off when you try to switch to it, you can't get to the right input for it.
Complicated, but makes the purchase completely worthless. Mostly the TV's fault, but the packaging claims that it works with ALL audio/video set ups, and that just isn't true.
