Best Timer Power Strips

So hey guys i need to find a timer power strip soon cause im going on vacation. I need at least 4 day timing outlets that can be programed to turn on in the morning turn off for a few hours in the afternoon then turn back on for the rest of the day. Preferably not to expensive. Like i said at least 4 day timer outlets but more is better. I have read the reviews of many and there always like " timer broke quick" or "doesn't stay up with current time" I want one that wont break and mainly will stay up with current time. Under will be the ones i have looked at and im skeptical. If you have any of them let me know your experience

Thanks for the help

The best thing that in my opinion is the buy an outlet timer and plug a power strip into that. Less expensive and if one breaks you only have to to replace one. Here us one http://homedepot.digby.com/homedepot/product/detail.do?itemId=10068...

2 plugs and more time settings than you will ever use.

Technically you shouldn't have the surge protector as the last part of the electrical run. You should plug the timer into the surge device. How many things are you putting on a timer?
