No matter how green your peripheral companies advertise, those device still consumes power while idling. The true energy saver will be actually turn them off. With this new Conserve Surge with Timer, you can plug your office electronics into one of the six “auto off” outlets, while two “always on” outlets keep PCs and other critical devices powered on at all times. The six switched outlets can be activated with a single press of the on/off button, allowing the surge protector’s automatic timer to eliminate power to those outlets after 11 hours. Prior to the automatic shutdown, a blinking LED on the button will warn of the shut off. The Surge Protector even make it easier for you by providing a one-touch remote control which may be activate right on your desk.

The Sharper Image Rotating Speaker System Dock For iPod or iPhone can take your downloaded movies a give them a mini-theater feel, complete with robust digital sound.

Meaning, you can attach your iPhone vertically and if you want to watch a movie, just press a button and the Rotating Speaker System will turn the phone 90 degrees on its side, so you can view videos at the best possible angle. Watch it in action here. Oct 01 2009 Epson Home Cinema 8100 1080p Home Theater ProjectorPosted by: hoser in Electronics, Home Theater

With their new line of energy-efficient Bravia VE5 LCD HD televisions, Sony shows you how to go green without sacrificing performance or picture quality. In fact, some features even exceed Energy Star 3.0 requirements. Take the 40″ model, whose integrated high-efficiency HCFL backlight minimizes power consumption by up to 65% vs. requirements set out by Energy Star 3.0. The VE5 also features a Presence Sensor, which detects movement to help conserve energy. If you leave the room for 5, 30 or 60 minutes, the sensor turns the picture off automatically (though sound remains, so you can still hear the game!). If you’re not back within 30 minutes, the television shuts off completely. An Energy Saving Switch means the television consumes zero power when in standby mode (most TVs consume some power, even when not in use). The VE5 also has a Light Sensor that helps reduce power by lowering/raising the brightness of the backlight to suit the ambient lighting conditions of your room. So if you dim the lights for a romantic evening, the sensor automatically dims the backlight too, lowering the brightness to preserve energy. Plus a host of other features…it’s still a Sony, after all.
