Standby Buster - PC Power Down

Standby Buster is a remote-controlled electrical socket that lets consumers switch off multiple appliances completely rather than leaving them in standby mode. With the equivalent of two powerstations of electricity being wasted by equipment left on standby in the UK each year and over three million tonnes of the principle Greenhouse gas, Carbon Dioxide (CO2), produced during the same period, Standby Buster will help eliminate wasted energy consumption and in turn save consumers money. Annual savngs from switching off rather than leaving in standby a typical TV, DVD, digital TV receiver and stereo can be about £40 (Which? Report Oct 2006).

Standby Buster requires no installation - it is simply plugged into an existing socket. Because Standby Buster uses Radio Frequency (RF) rather than Infra-Red (IR) to switch off products, it is not impaired by objects in its way. Standby Buster is the first such product to market with an electricity consumption of less than 1 Watt and approval from EST - offering consumers an assurance of quality from a trusted source. With an entry retail price point of £14.99 for a single socket and a remote, Standby Buster shows a payback in less than 6 months.
