LMAO sometimes a chatbot can make me laugh
The box in question is a free handout from the power company with a power strip that has a master control outlet on it. You turn on whatever is plugged into it and the others turn on. It also has a couple of LED light bulbs, two water saving shower heads. Worthless, if you're on a well. It has a couple of night lights. And for whatever reason, a package of four crayons.
This is the final discussion after talking about most things we have today. Have a soft turn on power switch so they need power to turn on in the first place.. I had previously said there's no way I would have my TV box or my Xfinity modem controlled by the power strip because those damn things take 20 minutes to come on and settle down. This is what the chatbot summarized. Check out the last sentence.
So the utility's "turn off the master, everything shuts down, save 3 watts" pitch is telling you to trade 3 watts of standby draw for a 20-minute outage every time you want to use the internet or watch TV. The crayons in that box are the most useful item in the kit.
