Japan-based Ubiquitous is promoting [JP] a energy strip having a built-in Wi-Fi module. Named iRemoTap, the strip enables you to definitely do a couple of things: you are able to track which from the connected products consumes just how much energy on the PC or mobile phone in tangible-time, and you will switch on or off all these products remotely.
