    Hello ,just wondering if anyone knows of any issues ,when using timers on stuff like consoles and pc's ?

    I was hoping to set a timer to power off all my stuff at night and during the day when I'm not there. But I'm not sure about what damage could be done ?

    Anyone any ideas ?

    Should be fine with a console, they can just be powered off at anytime. Not with pc though, a pc needs to go through the process of shutting down. Could probably be done by scheduling a task in windows

    Cheers ,everything would be in standby mode when the power goes off.
    Trying to keep track of whats on and whats off, need to keep the laptop power supply plugged out aswell:o
