Desk Charger Timer

Linux Electronics
If you pay for the power at your desk, and your power is expensive, you learn the value of turning stuff off. Chargers for gadgets seem to multiply, and each adds a bit more to the bill.

Yet they don't actually need to be on all the time.

A quick hack is done to have a Python script turn on a bank of gadget chargers, and turn them off under automated control.
