No readily accessible universal electric kill switch.
I've been working on a prototype for a switch that can turn off programmed areas in the apartment to help save electricity and subsequently Mother Earth.
On my way out my apartment - I hit this one switch, and everything programmed cuts off. It's not enough to just turn off appliances and various devices but to disconnect them all together from the power source is even greater.
Electric Kill Switch AND ... a way to set the clocks on everything that have been disconnected once power is restored :)
- chc 14y agoThere are remote-controllable power strips that seem to serve this purpose. Is there some nuance that makes them unsuitable?
- bbissoon 14y agoI think it's great for houses without a full module wired for the same purpose and it's not programmable. There are often designated slots for devices you wish to stay on - no more or less unless daisy chaining power strips. It's a great step - but I know we can do better.
