Yeah I had to adjust my powerstrip too after some time.  If it works, that's a great deal!
Havok:
It looks like it plugs directly into the wall socket (no cord), is that the case?

What kind of adjusting?  I thought it was just plug and play... I guess I'll find out tonight when I power everything on for the first time...

On the bitslimited strip, there is a little screw on the side that is supposed to adjust the sensitivity of the outlet that triggers the other outlets off/on.  When I first used it, I didn't even know it was there and everything worked fine out of the box...but a few months later, it stopped working and someone here alerted me to the adjustment dial.  After cranking it a bit everything worked again.  I have no idea why it suddenly stopped working like that though.

The first time I used it, it worked fine, and then the second time the other stuff wouldn't turn off. I just turned the screw on the side until they did and tested it once more. After the second tweak it's worked every time.
