That requires the computer to hotswap to be plugged into a power strip. It doesn't work if the computer is plugged into the wall directly. (Well leaving aside modifying the house's electricity / opening up the wall obviously.)
- dijit 7y agoyou can do it pretty easily if you have a dual socket wall socket because it follows the exact same principles. But you have to be very careful. In these cases it's probably worth doing it though. https://media.screwfix.com/is/image//ae235?src=ae235/38040_P&$prodImageMedium$ https://media.screwfix.com/is/image//ae235?src=ae235/38040_P... FWIW I do not endorse doing this, just stating that its possible and would work, it's not electrically safe and is dangerous for not only the hardware but for you too.
- Defenestresque 7y agoIncorrect. See this video[0] from the product stage. They have two ways to hotswap if it's not plugged into a powerbar: 1) plugging in their device into the adjacent power outlet then removing the socket assembly and 2) an adapter that can splice leads into the power cable https://youtu.be/-G8sEYCOv-o https://youtu.be/-G8sEYCOv-o Pretty ingenious, tbh. Though I'm a bit concerned about how much you end up handling energized plugs.
- bouke 7y agoWell that’s what I meant by “opening up the wall”.
