The TV is the biggest draw of "off" power draw. If that is the Control device will it still draw power when its off or does the switch block it?

Yes, the control device draws the same power as if it were plugged into the wall directly. For example, in my case my receiver is the control device, and operates in standby mode when I turn it off.

The strip still provides power to the TV so that it can respond to the request to turn on. The Smart Strip 'blocks' / cuts power to all the other parasitic devices such as : DVD player, supplemental media (Roku, Apple, etc), sound bar, etc.

When the switch is turned off, lamps will shut off and the computer shuts off. I assume no electricity is drawn when the switch is off.

Things that are plugged in still draw a low amount of electricity even if they are not turned on. PowerCenter prevents this from occurring by cutting power to idle appliances, devices.

There is no indication. You can plug a radio or a lamp when you are setting up your system though to make sure it working properly. I think the master/control device you have isn't completely turning off. I use my television, and I had to turn off the quick start up feature to get this to work. If whatever device you're using has something like that, then it won't sense that the master device has ever shut down, so there will always be power to the controlled outlets. Hope this helps.

It does not have power switch. It does not draw power when devices are not plugged in. Better yet, unplug it when not in use.

It is switched but is on when the unit is on standby: it only goes off when the 790 is totally turned off. So, if you use the remote, a device plugged into it will not be turned off when you turn the amp off remotely.

I receive my tv from ComCast and use their remote. Yes, it powers on/off with the tv.

Yes, it immediately turns on when power is applied, regardless of former state. If there is no signal on the (HDMI) input, it will power off within about 30 seconds. When it senses a signal it powered on and remained on unless it was turned off via the pushbutton panel or remote. Works very well and scales signals from 1080i, 720p, WXGA, and others quite well. Some resolutions look sharper than others. I liked 720p the best.

As with most voltage converters, it only activates with a draw on it. As for me, mine is fused and switch controlled, just in case.

My TV is shutting off peridically. I checked the pin. it is OK.....is it the power supply>

I'm not using POE on my switch and it shows consumed power at zero percent, It would stand to reason that if your not using any POE devices its not going to use any power for POE, I don't see any settings to turn it off, the unit itself pulls 1.25 amps max.

It does not have a power switch. I want to say it does draw power when there are no devices connected, but not sure.

Samsungs Answer: "Thank you for contacting Samsung. I see that you would like to turn off the red LED lighting up when turning off the TV UN40HU6950FXZA. The red LED is the IR port for the TV to operate via remote control and the indicator to show that TV is receiving power from wall outlet. It is not possible to keep the TV plugged in to wall outlet and turn off the red LED. You can only turn it off by unplugging the TV from wall outlet."I'm going to try LightDims and put a 80% block on it and see if the IR still works.

Does your Xbox still draw power while you think it is "off"? Conversely, does it draw enough power when it is on? Mine works with a laptop used as the master and all other appendages (external monitor, docking station) in the green, switched outlets.

Correct. Will work without power. Has a manual switch as well. Great switch for the price.

It doesn't use/need power, it just converts the audio/video to HDMI. If the Wii is off, there is nothing to transmit to the splitter. We use ours with an HDMI splitter also, no issues at all from day one. Extremely simple to plug & play straight out of the package. Once you set it up, go into your Wii settings and change your video settings to 1080 if your tv is 1080.

The remote turns the TV off. If you use a satellite receiver that remote will turn them both on and off
