This power board allows you to reduce energy usage by automatically switching off peripheral devices when a main device is switched off.
- Saves energy by reducing standby power consumption
- Two always-ON outlets, one master outlet and four peripheral outlets
- Peripheral outlets can be switched to operate as either normal or slave outlets
- Power ON LED indicator for peripheral outlets
I have a similar product connected to my TV & other stuff. Basically when the TV is switched off, it switches everything else related to it (Chromecast power, Wii). In the always on outlets, I have my router & media PC hooked up.
I had a look at Noel Leeming, HN, Mitre 10 but couldn't find any power boards with power saving abilities.
