How it helps

Use it for a focused task

StripSafe lets you build a list of everything plugged into a power strip (or daisy-chained strips), totals the wattage, and tells you if you're over the limit. It includes a searchable database of 100+ common appliances with typical wattages, warnings about daisy-chaining, and a printable reference card.

1) Enter your power strip's amp rating (usually 15A printed on the strip). 2) Select appliances from the database or type custom names and wattages.

3) The audit panel shows total load, percent used, and safety status. 4) Save your setup to return later, or print the reference card.
