A New Way to Fight Phantom Power
Many innovations are making run-of-the-mill power strips into technological dinosaurs. Phantom power, the power leaked by items that are plugged in, but not necessarily switched on is gaining more and more exposure in press. As more people become aware of the drain of phantom power, new solutions like the one below are sure to appear.
Belkin has introduced a remote control power switch. It can be operated through a handheld remote, so you won’t have to crawl to flip off the power and cords can be hidden out of sight and out of reach. The remote can operate not only a single power strip, but also an entire fleet of power strips that are used on all the electronics in your home.
