The Standby Saver unit cuts 100% of the standby power used by TVs, Hi-Fis, VCRs, DVDs, PCs and peripherals. The unit consumes less than 1 Watt and therefore meets the requirements for power usage of the Energy Saving Trust approval scheme.

Standby Saver is a 6-way electrical extension with two ‘switchable’ sockets, which can be in Standby Saver control or permanently switched on. This flexibility allows DVD and video appliances set to record on timers, to be left switched on when required.

The unit allows for up to and including 6 electrical items to be connected and therefore one unit in a lounge can save the standby power of a TV, DVD, Freeview box, two games consoles and an audio system.

Standby Saver is available in two versions: one for use with Infra red remote controlled electrical appliances, the second for use with USB port products. Infra red version (SS1) The Infra red version can be operated using any appliance that is controlled with an Infra red remote control.

The Infra red unit works with your existing remote control and learns signals from it. Using the Standby Saver extension after a small delay the power to all devices is switched off. When switched back on using the Infra red remote, Standby Saver returns power to all the equipment
