How fast does power return to the controlled outlets when the master device is turned on?

When the master device is turned on, power is immediately available to the auxiliary devices. The delay only occurs on shutdown.

As soon as I turn my TV back on all other components switch on also. So just about instant for me.

Good question. The instructions say to hold the button down for 3 to 4 seconds. Sometimes it works, often it doesn't. I got tired of the inconsistency, so I plugged the unit into my master power control unit. Now I just turn it off with a dedicated switch on the master contol.

Its hard to give an estimate without knowing what the current or draw is from those devices. By looking at the Power details on the power supplies should give you all the info needed to calculate the duration.

it really depends on how much power your pulling, if your not pulling much power then 10+ mins.. but like in my case i only have 2 mins because i pull alot of power on one of my box, the other one i own i have 15+ mins because i pull little on the other one.

I just tested it, It just goes back to the first setting. I wasn't letting the power fully drain when i test it the first time i guess.

The secondary plugs supply power when the master is turned on in the same way as if you plugged them into the wall. With most newer devices, that means that they will have power, but won't automatically turn on.

im not sure exactly because i plug it in and do other things.. under 10 minutes..

Hi Mike, when the device is being powered by an external power source, the unit will not power off after 5 minutes. Once the unit is off, you will need to manually turn it on after power is restored.

that's what I am doing - here's what i am finding...the control item (using a kill-a-watt) is still drawing .005 amps when everything else is off...i know this is practically negligible and in the scheme of things it's not really gonna matter money wise, just led me to the question that if the most least power consumption device (i.e. -0-) was the control item there would be absolutely no draw whatsoever. Thank you for your replies and if I am completely off base, please let me know

Once the master socket is turned off (the tv) the controlled sockets after a minute or 2 completely lose power. The Vcr/Dvd player would lose all power and if the clock is manually set would have to be re-entered. The strip comes with always on sockets as well to allow for devices that need to remain powered to function properly.

Not sure? But i had my laptop and printer plugged in to a surge protector that was plugged in to the generator. It was plugged in for 7.5 hours with no trouble.

I haven't used any other chargers, so it is hard to compare, but this is my personal observations so far (2 months of use): I have not noticed any decrease in charge capacity after use. Typically mine will charge from 1/3 to full capacity of controler in 1.5 to 2 hours, this doesn't seem to be too fast.

I'm not sure I can completely answer your question. There isn't a control of any kind, you just plug it in.

I honestly don't know. I haven't had to do it. This thing has been great so far. It seems to have stabilized some of the surges I used to get. I had a Tripp Lite at one point and it was cutting out power by itself - basically doing the exact opposite of what I wanted it to do. I have no regrets so far with this purchase.

It depends on how much of that 510watts you're using according to cyberpower you have 10.4 Minutes when using 210 Watts, and 2.15 Minutes when using 425 Watts and probably 1min or less if you're under max load The power went off at my house recently for a couple minutes and before i could shutdown my htpc the power came back and my htpc never shut off Mind you my htpc is using a 600watt power supply but computers don't use the full wattage, especially if it's idle

Typical is a few seconds to maybe a minute. But I have had issues with the unit connectivity so my experience is limited.

That is definitely not my experience, and probably has more to do with your systems. My switch activates my USB devices in 1-2 seconds. But I'm not using a MAC--both of mine are PCs. I'm switching a keyboard and mouse.
