Standby Buster
Working in a similar way to
Bye Bye Standby,
Standby Buster consists of an electrical socket into which one appliance (or a two-, four-, or six-way adapter) can be plugged. The Standby Buster is simply plugged into an existing socket, and the devices to be controlled plugged into it. A
radio frequency (RF) remote control with 30 feet of range is used to switch power on and off.
Instead of leaving appliances in energy wasting
standby mode, the remote control can be used to switch the socket on and off, and so to provide power for the appliances only when it is really needed.
As with
Bye Bye Standby multiple Standby Buster sockets can be used in one property. Up to four different
zones can be set, and an unlimited number of sockets used in each
zone. The remote control has four on-buttons and four off-buttons, one on/off combination for each
zone. Therefore it is very easy to control the power in any home or office.
Each
Standby Buster socket is rated at up to
3,680W and so can easily cope with anything you previously plugged into your 13 Amp mains socket.
