We all have a lot of gadgets and electronics hanging around these days. That makes everything plugged in difficult, which is why a good power strip can be so useful. It is even better if it has built-in surge protection. Well, Amazon has a great deal on this Kasa smart power strip, which has both of those things and more, and right now it's down to just $40. The deal won't last long though, so if you're interested, don't take too long to buy it.
The Kasa smart plug includes nine ports that can be controlled separately. This allows you to monitor the power consumption of each device you're charging and turn it off if it's consuming too much electricity. To control these devices, you can download the Kasa Smart app, which also allows you to turn on the devices with a few taps on your phone, so you don't have to worry about your home being dark when you arrive.
