Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just moved into a new apartment and have been reading about all of the new power strips out there, especially the green ones. I was wondering if you had any suggestions about which "green "power strips are out there with decent joules ratings. And when I say green, I mean power strips that have the remotes or switches to turn off all electricity flowing to certain plugs and with at least 2 plugs that are always on. I was looking specifically at sub $50 because I will need two, but if that is not possible I could be convinced otherwise. Thanks!"
The best thing I did was throw away the broken ear hooks and glue on an earjel. The jels look disgusting but when you put it in your ear it stays put. I had to glue it because the little ring swivels a bit and the gels moved just enough tom make me think it was about to fall out of the gel(and it was). Sometimes it would fall but with the gel glued in this is good for another few months anyway.
The technology inside is good and the thing holds a charge so I consider it as industrial strength as they come. I cant bear to drive and hold the phone to my ear so this beats the speakerphone.
The earhooks really suck so hopefully this has a better system.
i also agree about the volume control. Sometimes mine is just to loud even with my phone turned down. My phone sends out a ring to the earpiece and it can hurt.
