Re: IR controlled power strip/plug?

[Geoff H <yahoo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul,

What you might want to consider with the Domia Bye Bye Standby range, is
that they do a remote that looks like a wall switch, so that as you
enter and exit a room you can swicth on/off all of the equipment that is
on the same code.
It might be the case that if you know you are going to use a particular
piece of kit, you switch it on as you enter the room and then use the
Harmony remote. It's not as nice a solution as if the the Harmony could
switch the power on for you, but it might work.

This is something I am looking into at the moment
