Have you ever left the house or the apartment, and been struck by the sudden horror that you didn’t turn off your stove or your toaster or your television or whatever? Yeah, I’ve been there too once or twice. And I know some people who’ve made an entire psychological disorder out of something like that.
Well, there’s a new gadget, currently in the prototype stage, called the PowerZoa. The PowerZoa can be used to remotely cut power to any gadget plugged into an outlet. Everything from your stove to your toaster can be suddenly, remotely, disabled. The PowerZoa transmits details on power use to a secure website, which you can log into to remotely disable your gadgets.
Of course, it’s entirely possible that such a gadget could be used against you, but even so, what happens? You unplug the PowerZoa and replug your appliance back into the wall. For people who worry about leaving things on, this is a great device.
