The Intelli Plug is an intelligent triple plug adapter for desktop computers
Why we like it:
Recently research revealed that gadgets left on standby squander over £740 million worth of energy and over four million tonnes of excess carbon emissions every year. The Intelli Panel is an excellent solution for home or even office use and whats better is it’s easy to install. Simply plug into the wall, plug your computer into the master socket and plug in your other appliances. No software required! When you turn it off, all your peripherals (computer screen, printer, etc) plugged into the Intelli Plug are powered down automatically. It also offers Surge protection for any appliances attached.
How does it work?
Plug your computer into the master socket and plug the peripherals into the remaining two sockets (to increase amount of sockets either attach an extension cable or the Intelli Panel is also available). Plug the Intelli Plug into a wall socket and turn on the computer. When switching off, turn your computer off in the normal way and it automatically calibrates to the specific computer. Power will only be transferred to the peripherals when the computer is turned back on and is active. Also available are the Intelli Panel for Laptops, and the Intelli Panel for Audio Visual
