Re: [LUG] Pi-mote

 
They also do a 6 socket (4 controllable) USB extension lead that's compatible with Linux and the Pi which can programmed with a timer. It's about 40 quid on Amazon and great for power cycling servers (well as long as what's plugged into it uses permanent mains as you have to send a turn off then turn on command).

tl;dr: RasPI module to control mains sockets.
 
It’s a shame that their entire range is limited to 4 separate channels as I’ve had to use more than that with “manual” remote controlled sockets in the past (different frequency selector) – and it’s not impossible that the neighbour could buy the same system (which would make for an amusing time…)
 
But… I see my plans for a fully automated house coming slightly nearer…
 
(Note: There’s no fancy program to control this… it’s down to you to use the example in the manual to make your own program(s))
