That's a lot of money just to turn your stuff on in sequence. Surely there is a cheaper solution out there. Wade |

Not as fancy (but for $240 less...), but why not have a small bay of toggle switches for the components? |

And actually, that is really a problem with your power in your home, not with it being "too much", as a cabinet doesn't draw THAT much power. I can power on several games with a single switch with no problem at all. Meanwhile my buddy (same apartment complex), turns on ALL 5 of his games with a single power strip (one of which is a dual monitor game, and another is a pin), with no problem at all, but then the lights dim everytime he hits the flippers. ;D |

youll get no arguments from me , the wiring in my house is ancient ;D theres still some of those unshielded wires running thru ceramic insulators on the walls in some rooms. (not live) so the solution is really two fold. yes, the wiring in my house blows so i need something to keep my wires form turning my 150 yr old aprt into a towering inferno, but i really have a vision of seeing my cab boot up in a predermined sequence ,and likewise shutdown in reverse sequence. just think it would look kickass. |

Hmmm, do they make AC capicitors? (AC in, and AC out), of so then that could possibly be a solution. Hmmm, a much easier solution might be a simple UPS. The cab should take its initial jolt out of the UPS rather than out of the wall. |
