Surge Protector with Timer Prevents Phantom Loads



Tripp Lite Surge Suppressor with Timer Saves Energy while Protecting Devices



Chicago, IL—Tripp Lite, a world-leading manufacturer of power protection and connectivity solutions, has introduced a new energy-saving surge protector, the ECO-SURGE SK10TG Surge Suppressor. The new surge suppressor features a timer that cuts power to connected devices, preventing energy-wasting phantom loads. Phantom loads occur when a device connected to an outlet continues to draw power even when it is turned off, a common occurrence when devices such as cell phones, mp3 players and tablets are left plugged in overnight to charge.



The new ECO-SURGE provides surge protection for everything from expensive portable electronics to household items like coffee makers, lamps and fans. It can also help keep homes safer by automatically shutting off power to potentially dangerous devices such as irons, space heaters and curling irons.



Key Features and Benefits:

Timer selection switch (1, 3, or 6 hours) helps make connected devices more energy efficient

350 joule rating

Direct plug-in design saves space; 1 outlet

On/off button to cut power to a connected device at any time

2 diagnostic LEDs report status conditions

“The SK10TG surge suppressor is a great addition to our already extensive line of surge protection products,” said Karenann Brow, Tripp Lite Senior Product Manager. “It offers users energy savings and reliable surge protection, two features not often seen together in one affordable device.”
