Gembird USB power socket
A few years ago I got a Gembird power socket for my birthday from B10m. I did not use it that much until recently. The cool thing of this power socket is that it is switchable via USB. That offers a lot of possibilities for simple domotica.
In my current setup I have connected the Gembirds USB port to my fit2-pc server that runs linux. After installing sispwctrl on it, I now can now use it for switching on and off the christmas lights via cron:
00 16 * * * sudo /usr/local/bin/sispwctrl -o 4 >/dev/null 59 23 * * 1-5 sudo /usr/local/bin/sispwctrl -f 4 >/dev/null 45 00 * * 6-1 sudo /usr/local/bin/sispwctrl -f 4 >/dev/null
