Bye Bye Standby - reduce home energy use

bbsb_action_surround_1.jpg

Home appliances plugged into a wall socket suck-up power even when off or in standby mode. A great energy saving solution for people in the UK is the Bye Bye Standby by Domia a device that completely cuts off power to appliances when they are off or in standby. Devices or power strips (each socket can handle 4 grouped devices) plugged into the Standby switch can be turned on and off and completely taken off-grid by using the supplied remote or wall switch. The system works through walls and ceilings and from as far away as 30 meters.
