USB Ecostrip Storms through Europe, Arrival Set for U.S. Market: Revolution in Energy-Saving Power Strips a Boon for Retailers and Distributors

The USB Ecostrip arrives this week in the U.S. marketplace, providing a rare opportunity for retailers and distributors to take advantage of the new emphasis on "green" consumer electronics.

    /Consumer Electronics PR News/ - PALOS HILLS, IL, September 25, 2007 - The Ecostrip eliminates the flow of electricity to computer peripherals when the computer is turned off, thereby drastically reducing electricity bills in the home and workplace. With no programming or extra installation requirements, the Ecostrip operates like a normal surge protector/power strip until the computer sends a signal telling the peripherals they are no longer in use.

Gone are the days when a home PC is turned off, yet power continues to flow to its printer, scanner, modem, speakers, and stand-by lights.

"We set out to design a product that reduces energy waste, yet, allows distributors and retailers to profit from the new emphasis on this type of product," said Bjarne Waedeled, President of Centritech Limited, Hong Kong, designer and producer of the Ecostrip. "And, because it functions like any other power strip, there is no education of the consumer required."

The USB Ecostrip exploded onto the consumer electronics European scene in 2005. With strategic partners in retail, distribution, and government, Centritech Ltd. has enjoyed triple-digit annual growth ever since.

"The Ecostrip is its own best advertisement. This is one of those 'once in a generation' products that actually sells itself," Waedeled said.
