January 16, 20188 yr I've purchased 4 of these gems. https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA4RE50A5741 The lazy comment was in jest (hopefully no one was offended) ... but if you have a disability or feeling old and slow (like me) or have your PC(s) tucked away out of reach, then a remote power button to the rescue and it includes HDD activity light. Probably about time I posted something "less expensive" and shrugged that title of Elitist ... maybe? Cheers, Rob.
January 20, 20188 yr 15 minutes ago, wizzards said: I have been using wireless 13 amp sockets for switching My PC and other items on/off, save,s me having to contort myself and is a lot easier on my back (link enclosed), just out of interest why does the product you linked to carry a health warning? https://energenie4u.co.uk/catalogue/product/ENER002-4 Peter I think the warning is just a California thing. From what I have seen, everything in California comes with a warning label.

I upgraded my system two weeks ago which included a new case (Corsair Obsidian 750D Airflow). Long story short, my wife came to me and asked how in the world do you turn the computer on?! She said she couldn't find the on switch for the life of her. I'll have to buy this just for her.

January 29, 20188 yr My god, what an impressive set up. And have a reputation point for being a fellow cat lover.
January 29, 20188 yr Yes, the cat is my shared cockpit co-pilot ... so far she can only handle Gear and Flaps, but I keep working on training her. Cheers, Rob.
January 29, 20188 yr Hmm... training my cat has proven to be a fruitless endeavour. Not a pack animal you see, a mind of his own. Attacking my cables behind my PC, batting my memory sticks across the floor, punching me in the back of the leg when he's hungry... amazing cat, most intelligent we've had and great fun. One minute he's licking my face and the next he's stalking me.
