Vampire drains
Are a well documented phenomenon and claim to be a significant impact on electricity costs in the average American household.

If you can reduce 3 consistent drains per strip, and you put several of these in your business our household, on typical devices that suck a lot of energy even when they're not off - I'm sure that the power savings would exceed any extra draw from the device itself. The sole exception might be the LCD on the Smart device - but even then, it is a non-backlit LCD display... use it to power-down your Wii and BlueRay DVD's glowing display when not in use, and you're probably going to come out ahead.
