Mercury 3-Gang WiFi Smart Power Strip with USB charging and power surge protection
 

With the current situation with power costs rising and another rise In the pipeline for October it’s more important than ever to save power, knowing how much you are spending on power each day using a smart meter is all well and good but you need to take control of your power usage somehow. One way is to reduce your use of Vampire power, the power of all you equipment in standby or at least some of it, if you take for instance the entertainment system in my front room consisting of a Playstation 5, 55” LCD TV, Amplifier and charging point this was 13W, which does not sound very much but when you calculate this for a year this equates to 114kW.


Current charges of 27p per kWH = £30.78 and when the cap rises 50% in October to 42p per kWH this rises to £47.88


This is just one of my set of sockets and so others could be worse or better


So introducing the Smart Power Strip which can be controlled by the TuyaSmart app on Android an iPhone or via voice using Alexa, Google Home or Smarthings.


Switch the complete smart socket on and off or individual sockets on and off


You can name individual sockets i.e TV, Amp, Computer and turn on and off via the app or simply say Alexa turn on the TV on or off – or whatever your voice control is


You can Schedule individual socket to be on and off or the complete strip, for instance in my case I scheduled the complete strip to turn off at Midnight then back on for an hour in the morning then back on again when I get home, this saves about 18 hours of vampire power per day


The smart socket can also be controlled away from home wherever you are connected to the internet even on your mobile phone data connection


So if you have a set of equipment that’s using lots of power in standby or just want to control your stuff by voice or app then the smart power strip is ideal solution
