Smart Plug > Reputable 1020-joule surge protector > Extra power strips > Retro game consoles
I have around 15 consoles, such as NES, SNES, Atari 2600, etc., which remain powered off most of the time. I only provide power to them by saying 'Turn Retro ON' via Alexa. To accommodate the large power bricks that older gaming consoles tend to have, I also use short 1-foot extension cords [monoprice.com], allowing them to fit neatly into the auxiliary power strips.
While I wouldn't trust these Hyper Tough surge protectors for devices that are powered on 24/7 and require reliable protection, they do provide an easy solution for my retro gaming setup. Therefore, I can see them being useful in certain situations.
