6 Way Green Energy Saving Powerboard
The 6 Way Green Energy Saving Powerboard reduces the Standby Power consumption typical in most home and office appliances. Daily use of this unit is an easy way to save energy and reducepower bills by cleverlyeliminating the Standby Power wastage.
The 6 Way Green Energy Saving Powerboard is fully automatic and does not need any pre-setting, programming or additional manual remote controls. Simply attach the primary appliance, such as the TV (for home entertainment system) or the computer (for computer system), to the MASTER socket. Then connect the peripherals such as speakers, amplifiers, gaming consoles, computer monitors, printers or scanners to the controlled SLAVE sockets.
When the device connected to the MASTER socket is shut down the powerboard automatically turns the power supplied to the four (4) controlled SLAVE sockets off. This eliminates the wasted power that would have been consumed by these SLAVE devices. When the primary appliance is turned-on power to the SLAVE socket is switched on again.
The last socket on the powerboard operates in an Always On status like that in a normal powerboard. This allows other equipment to be powered without being affected by the status of the MASTER device.
Surge protection is also featured to prevent damage toconnected equipment.

Useful Information
Example of energy and dollar saving:
Assumptions:
System operates 4 hours a day ('Standby' for 140 hours a week)
'Standby' power is 70 Watts (typical 'Standby' power for a set top box/DVR is 15-40Watts, audio/speaker system is 3-10Watts, office and computer peripherals is 3-5Watts)
Result:
Total 'Standby' power = 509.6kWh per year
Savings:
Domestic power cost of approximately 22 cents per kWh
That is a savings of$112.00 a year!
Energy Consumption and Greenhouse Gas
Household consumption is one of the biggest contributors to global warming. Each Australian household is responsible for producing an average of 14 tonnes* of greenhouse gases (GHG) per year. Australian households collectively produce 99.4 million tonnes** of GHG annually.
