Stop bleeding energy

Did you know that consumer electronics continue to draw power even when they’re switched off? This standby power loss, or “vampire load” can account for up to 75% of the power used by electronics, even when not in use. In fact, a vampire load can be responsible for up to $200 worth of yearly energy costs for an average home.

Advanced power strips

An advanced power strip looks like an ordinary power strip but offers several special features to help keep energy vampires from draining your power. By replacing your standard power strip with an advanced power strip, you can significantly reduce the amount of electricity used in your home and save money on your electric bill.

An advanced power strip offers:

  • Reduced standby power loss
  • Energy bill savings
  • Premium surge protection

This spooky season, save $10 on select advanced power strips at the Entergy Arkansas marketplace.
