Eco-Smart: The TV TrickleSaver

It isn’t always easy to save energy these days. With all the gadgets and fun stuff to use, it can be very easy to be a total energy pig. Even if you’re careful enough to shut things off when you aren’t in the room, many gadgets have a little red light or something that stays on, even when it is isn’t in use. That’s what the TV TrickleSaver is for.

Just shut off the TV and it will automatically sense that the TV is shut off and turn off any electronics plugged into the device as well. All by itself; no extra effort required.

This is especially useful if you have consoles and such plugged into your TV, like an XBox or PlayStation3. This handy little device will run you $34.95, but in the long run would save you many pennies when your electricity bill comes.
