    Nice… 1.2m extension lead with a master switch you can put in easy reach.

      i thought that's what a normal switched power board did

      • noob999 on 07/03/2014 - 16:36

        if you can reach it.
        sounds like you have your Powerboard sitting next to your Big Screen TV.

        and not all slim powerboards have switches

          Yeah, but if you wanted a powerboard to switch, you could buy one..

          That's the point. It's like $12 for a 4 outlet switched powerboard.

          I like the idea of this product, but at the price point, I'm not really sure it is much better than switched powerboards.

        • [Deactivated] on 07/03/2014 - 18:17

          The facility offered by the T design and the serious quality of the switch and other components make these quite a different proposition to even a supposed-quality switched powerboard.

          For example, I bought these from a previous OzB deal and would have no hesitation in using one to remotely switch a 2400 watt heater.

          I was silly enough to plug a 2000 watt heater into a switched Arlec powerboard. Only a few watts being drawn from the other three sockets. Shouldn't have happened but partially melted/seized switch resulted.

          Decided (with close monitoring) to repeat the exercise in another socket - same thing happened. Maybe Arlec thinks that a 10Amp total rating only applies if current drawn is evenly spread across all four outlets…?

    Tried to add 4x Black EcoSwitch. Coupon code 'ozbmar14only3' didn't work for me.

    • Just figured out how to read. NVM (code works).

    Says a lot about the product.

    • [Deactivated] on 07/03/2014 - 18:20

      Beat me to it.

      Pmupsinep, irrespective of your beef/spat with the rep in the first deal I linked above, regarding the way these were/are being marketed, product itself is excellent and 4 for $40 delivered - especially - remains a great deal, regardless of how stacked to the rafters their warehouse might be.

        Initially i was very sceptical of this product, however i bought some last time around and i have 3 applications where this has been useful.
        Build qulity is excellent, double pole switching and you couldnt make one for the price these are selling for.

        • [Deactivated] on 08/03/2014 - 13:30

          Indeed.

      • pmupsinep on 08/03/2014 - 18:10

        No need to trawl through previous posts to make irrelevant links. It's either a product with limited usefulness, or price is too high.

        • [Deactivated] on 09/03/2014 - 17:43

          I understand that you'd prefer people not see your hissy-fit in that prior deal thread.

    • oz-dxer on 08/03/2014 - 14:41

      Apparently both Ford and Holden have the same issue of being "overstocked" or more the point, not enough people are buying their products either.

      • pmupsinep on 08/03/2014 - 18:06

        So you're saying Ford Falcons and Holden Commodores are super useful vehicles with excellent build quality, and there are no cheaper alternatives?

  • h4lcyon on 07/03/2014 - 17:36

    Shipping kills it for me :(

    • thushan on 07/03/2014 - 18:22

      It's out of reach for me too, so I added 4 and used coupon ozbmar14only2 to make it $44. Easier reach!

      • oz-dxer on 08/03/2014 - 14:36

        Ummmm??? QTY 4 are FREE POST….only $40 shipped.

        • h4lcyon on 09/03/2014 - 16:48

          I only need 1 :)

        • [Deactivated] on 09/03/2014 - 17:52

          I think in the context of shelling out for four to get the best price, at $10 each they would make for thoughtful gifts.

          Maybe you can give one to pmupsinep, so that he can at least gain a sense of the actual utility and quality of these things…
