Power-saving multi-plug launched in South Africa

Saving Energy has launched the SavePower multi-plug in its store.
The SavePower multi-plug lets you connect one electronic device as the master appliance, and four as accessory appliances.
When you switch off the master device, the accessory devices are switched off completely – preventing them from going into standby and drawing power.
For devices like a DStv decoder which you may not want to switch on and off, there is a socket beside the master plug labelled “permanent”.
Appliances plugged into the permanent socket are controlled independently from the master appliance.
The SavePower multi-plug is on sale through Saving Energy in the following bundles, all of which include delivery to your nearest Postnet branch.
- Single pack: R199
- Double pack: R299
- Triple pack: R399
- Four pack: R499
