"This gizmo can cut your electricity bill and help you be greener". Sunday Times
 
"Standby Buster eliminates the need to kneel down and struggle to reach those hard-to-get-at plugs". The Independent
 
"Here's a way to help save the planet without too much effort". Daily Star
 
STANDBY BUSTER® is a remote-controlled electrical socket that lets you completely switch off appliances overnight - instead of leaving them in standby - so that they use no electricity.

Standby Buster consists of two parts; an electrical socket/plug and a remote control. The socket is simply plugged into any normal electrical outlet and is then switched on, and off, with the remote.


  • Standby Buster is the only remote control device approved by the Energy Saving Trust and consumes less than 1 Watt of electricity.

  • Using Standby Buster to switch off a typical arrangement of electronic entertainment equipment will save approximately 570kWh* of electricity over the course of the year. Generating this electricity would typically produce 245kg of Carbon Dioxide (CO2).

  • At rate of 12p kWh that means Standby Buster can save a minimum of over £40 a year.
  • Each remote control offers you the ability to assign four, or more, Standby Busters to four on/off buttons.
Plug the Standby Buster into a traditional socket and then an extension lead into the Standby Buster, into which the TV etc can be plugged.
