Will this interfere with the Stanley 31176 PowerMax 6-Outlet Power Strip? I don't want a problem turning on one switch and the other turning on too.

I cant say for sure as I dont have the 31176. But, the remotes do look the same. The remote 30413 has the ability to go on 4 different channels. The problem is that the wall unit is assigned a channel (A,B,C,D) that cant be changed. If the 31176 has a similar process, you could potentially end up with two units that work on the same channel and interfere with one another. But, Im sure you could return it and try again.Hope this helps.

I believe that you can select a different channel for each of them to operate on. In the description for both it says they are "command one programmable".

Hi Barb. It worked for me to connect 2 strips to the same power source and control them with the same controller. I haven't tried with 3 strips yet.

I'm not sure about a power strip being attached to this cause I've not used it that way. But it works just like a regular plug with a switch so I imagine it will work.

You may but at your own risk. I believe that may go against your local electrical code since you are mixing two different voltages in the same j box. Plus I think the power supply is DC. I think the best way is to have a power receptacle that is controlled by a wall switch.

Gary, this plugs into a double outlet covering the two sets of plug-ins and the six new ones are on either side but I do not know if one side is controlled by one plug or not. Since it probably cannot be plugged in without covering both outlets, I can't say. if one of your outlets is bad or not working, I do not know if this one will give you three or six or none at all.

My switch only has only one outlet. You may be able to put a one-to-three outlet adapter in that one outlet. That would mean "switching off" the outlet would "switch off" everything plugged into the one-to-three adapter. Keep in mind that will be a lot of bulk hanging on your wall outlet. Good Luck.

I haven't experienced any interference, even with all the outlets used. I bought three different strips and none have given me problems.

You can plug two of these into a standard two outlet wall connection. Not sure about a power strip.

There is not enough spots for this. Plugging power strips into each other is DANGEROUS. Do not do this. It is actually against fire code in most states. This product might not be the one for you. You might need a separate timer strip for your day time and your night time if you have more than 2 things plugged in for day time. The white spots are for constantly power.

You can disconnect the power lead to them. See the wiring schematic that ships with it. I believe it will also disable the green also which indicates the switch is "on" which you may not want to do. If you stick one of the pictures that come with it over the light it isn't as bright. I'm not where the schematic is right now to actually look at it to be sure of the details.

I just did a 10 minute experiment. Setting one outlet to off and the rest to on. Then unplugged the power strip. After 10 minutes I plugged it back in and the same ones were off and on as before I unplugged it. So, at least for short power failures it looks like it will.

No it will only block one if you plug it into the top part of the standard outlet. Doing this will leave room for another plug in. However, if you plug it into the bottom socket then both will be covered. Works like a charm

I can't say for sure, but that current has to go somewhere. It might over-heat something in the line. But, at a max about 3 amps, it's probably ok. Think about why you want that switch in the first place. What is it going to do for you that the charge controller won't?

Your question spurred me into trying it out. I set up multiple tools on an outlet strip and each one, when powered up, started the vacuum. Looking at the instructions, they hinted at multiple tools. No problems were noted when running multiple tools. Thanks for the question; it has expanded my use of this great switch.

Yes i believe so. I have two sepetate strips running in series On one switch.

No! One side is POWER ONLY. This is not a switch. This is for your pocket hard drive. Don't try anything else.

I installed a switch between my power source and the socket to eliminate any current draw........ no problem !
