cabinet on/off button

(1/6) > >>

Flinkly:
like always, i've searched and come up dry for this topic, but i've heard alot of people discussing the topic of a button to turn your whole cab on with a single switch.  I guess i'm wondering for a more in depth topic of how to hack a power strip to turn everything on in the cab when you turn on the computer...is it just simply to connect the power strips on/off button wires to the computer on/off button?  i guess i just want to be better safe than sorry, since my cab is relatively expensive...

I just ordered one of these(LCG1). With the LCG1/2 if you have a computer in the main outlet and it powers on, it turns the other devices plugged into the other outlets on. If your computer turns off, it turns the rest of the devices off. The LCG3/4 are supposed to work where any device can be plugged into the main outlet to power on/off the rest of the devices(i.e. a tv could be plugged into outlet one and turn on/off the rest).

forgot to mention they are running free shipping right now too.

I have a smartstrip thatwill turn everything on once the "hot" item is turned on, which in this case is my computer. I have also wired the on/off button for my computer to a button on the bottom of my cp. There are numerous other threads concerning this. Do a search and see what you find
