Save Home Theater Energy Usage With The Energy Saver Universal Remote Control

Energy Saver Remote.jpg Any home theater enthusiast should know by now that all their high tech equipment sucks up a whole lot of energy. Enter one possible solution to that problem: the Energy Saver universal remote control produced by One For All. First of all the Energy Saver remote allows you to control all of your home theater devices from one remote, eliminating the need for confusing remote clutter. As you can can probably guess from the name, the real important feature of the Energy Saver remote is its ability to save energy used by everyone of your home theater's devices. The remote comes with a plug-in that can connect to four different devices. By routing electricity through the plug-in a device that typically consumers 9.7 Watts per hours would only consumer 0.9 Watts. And when your home theater isn't actually running most devices will still consumer about 1.5 Watts per hour. A special "Green Button" on the remote, when pressed, will cut off electrical access to the plug-in, eliminating energy usage all together. An initial investment of $80 is required to get your hands on the Energy Saver remote, but we imagine it would pay for itself in time.
