Whether you’re about going green or saving green, you can help yourself out by lowering your energy consumption.  Plenty of us know that computers, monitors, and other toys draw energy even when in standby.  Show of hands—how many of us actually unplug our devices?  Yeah, me neither. 

At CES, Ace is introducing the “HiSaver,” a power strip that claims to reduce energy consumption.  Ace presents an example where several devices draw 41 watts while off.  The HiSaver is supposed to drop that to 0.2 watts. 

As is the case with most devices that save you money over the long run, this device comes with a high (for a power strip) $99 price tag.  I wonder how long it will take for the HiSaver to pay for itself.  If it lives up to its claims, this could be a must have.
