This is pretty nifty. The soaring cost of electricity in SA has made me a turn off the lights Nazi at home. And maybe I can finally convince my mum that the TV does not need to be unplugged from the wall after its been turned off.

actually, keeping appliances plugged in does end up draining energy (and adding to your costs) especially phone chargers (huge energy drains) and any item that glows or heats up even when not in use. Just FYI.
