Yahoo Finance Technology Expert Katie Linendoll:
Our entertainment systems consume a ton of energy. In fact, the Environmental Protection Agency estimates households spend roughly $100 per year powering devices while they're in a low power setting. Linendoll suggests investing in a device like the Belkin Conserve Smart AV - Auto-Off Surge Protector. It controls up to six audio-visual devices at once, and includes a master outlet which detects when your television is off and uses that information to power down the other 5 peripheral devices you'd likely be using with your TV, such as your gaming console or DVD player. The power strip's last two outlets help continuously power devices that always need to be on like your cable/satellite box or DVR. This product retails for around $27 but the EPA estimates that a smart" strip can reduce your monthly energy bill and pay for itself in just a few months.
