Q: What does it mean 1 master, 4 energy saving, 2 surge only. does that mean only 2 plugs have the surge protection? Do all plugs provide the same power? Does the Master do anything different? Asked on 4/9/2010 by josie from Washington, DC Know the answer? Answer this question 1 answer A: When the master is shut off this will automatically shut off on up to 4 peripheral devices (energy saving ports) when the primary device is turned off or goes into stand-by mode. The 2 Surge only are always live. Answered on 4/20/2010 by Customer Care from Staples

Answered on 1/6/2010 by Customer Care from Staples A: Do your remember to turn on the devices each time? When you turn the master device off, all the linked devices turn off because they lose power - some devices shut down completely so that you have to turn them on after you turn on the master device. Answered on 3/9/2010 by Son of Spock from Rego Park, NY A: This surge protector is designed to conserve energy when devices are not in use. To do this whenever the device plugged into the "Master" outlet is shut off, or goes into standby mode, power is cut off to the "Controlled by Master" outlets. One way to use it would be to have a TV plugged into the "Master" outlet and a gaming console, DVD player, and audio receiver plugged into the "Controlled by Master" outlets. When the TV is shut off, power to the other devices is cut to conserve power. Things that need to be on at all times, like a DVR, can be plugged into the "Always On" outlets.
