TrickleStar Helps You Save Power (And The Earth)

TrickleStar of Hong Kong touts to have the first power-saving device in the world that is able to shave up to 12% of your monthly utility bill simply by killing standby power while reducing a similar amount on your power usage. Unfortunately, it seems as though CheckTap has already laid claim to this title, but it never hurts to have another device in the market that helps save juice, especially in these cash-strapped times. The TrickleStar PC Standby Power Saver is connected to a PC via USB, and will check the computer's power status continuously. A power extension cable will daisy-chain to your regular power strip with the rest of all your peripherals plugged in. Whenever the PC is turned off, the TrickleStar's current sensing circuitry will kill off all power to the peripherals, and vice versa when the PC is powered. You can pick up the TrickleStar next January.
