For all the energy hogs out there in need of a device to manage their energy gulping ways, Belkin has created the Conserve Surge Protector. This power strip will protect you from odious and destructive power surges while providing an easy way to cut power to devices that sip juice even while off — tv’s, monitors, printers, computers and the like. It has 8 outlets, 6 “switchable” and 2 “always on.” The best thing is that it comes with a WIFI remote, so we don’t have to see that derriere sticking out from under your desk when you power-down.
