Has anyone found a a good Homekit based power strip to control their equipment.

What is it you are looking for in a power strip?

Check out the Kasa Smart Wi-Fi Power Strip, I use it and highly recommend it, individual outlet power control and even monitors power draw per outlet. Might not have Homekit but it works with Alexa and Google Assistant, there are tools to build a workaround to get it for Homekit if you really need it.

Simple on/off feature with power draw details so I can monitor/control remotely.

Thank you! I didn't even think of bridge's to port over to Homekit. This expands my search to more reasonably priced strips.

+100 on Kasa. I have many of them in use on multiple tanks. They're awesome, right behind a full blown control system.

Same here. Have the strips and individual outlets. Control everything from it.

One of the considerations you should have in a power bar, is what state does it return too in the event of a power cut? Many of them default to off, so testing of this may be wise if you are out of the home at the time you lose power.
