HOW MUCH IS VAMPIRE POWER COSTING YOU?

The TrickleStar™ PC TrickleSaver™ reduces the standby energy consumed by PC Peripheral equipment. The product connects to a PC via a standard USB connector and detects the power status of a PC via the USB port.

When a PC is powered the product will switch On all peripheral devices. Conversely when a PC is switched Off, the product will switch Off all peripheral devices. NO MORE WASTING MONEY ON VAMPIRE POWER! The product is easy to install and provides simple automation to reduce wasteful standby energy consumption. The product is suitable for residential and workplace PC applications.

The product can be connected directly to equipment or connected to a standard electrical powerstrip with a number of connected devices.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

SLEEP STATE
The PC TrickleSaver requires the PC to switched off completely. The PC TrickleSaver will not work when a PC is placed into a sleep / hibernation state. If you require peripheral devices to switch off in a sleep / hibernation state, a TV TrickleSaver should be used.

HARD DISK DRIVE PRODUCT
Certain manufacturers of products containing hard disk drives do not recommend hard switching off of their products. We recommend reviewing the manufacturers documentation prior to use of a PC TrickleSaver with these products.

TWILIGHT BRINGS ENERGY VAMPIRES

Wait for the sun to go down and your house to go dark, then take a walk from room to room. See that? It's the glow of electronic devices eagerly waiting to be powered up again. And as they wait, they drain energy.

"This wasted energy, known as standby or phantom energy loss, represents a relatively small but growing percentage of an individual home's electricity use (about five percent), but taken across all U.S. households, adds up to an estimated 65 billion kilowatt-hours of electricity each year", according to the Union of Concerned Scientists.
