remote power on - what do you use


 

so I have a need to remotely power on/off my system including the telescope-top computer

I'm curious what is everyone using nowadays to do this?

The computer (a lenovo NUC-style computer) doesn't power on when power is available, so i'll have?to figure out how to power that on as an additional step

Hi Brian,
What about the typical 'Restore on power loss ==> Power On' setting that is in most bios's ?
I use that to auto power up my (genuine) NUC after plugging it in...
Otherwise, remote power control device such as WebControl's WebSwitch product provides inexpensive remote browser power control...
?


 

Not sure what all you are trying to power on Brian but recently I started using the Kasa wifi power strip over home wifi:



Each outlet can be controlled by a button on the phone app, but haven't set it up for desktop/laptop yet (and am not sure how to do so). Since I have multiple AC powered adapters for mount, camera, dew heater, etc. I can turn each one on or off at will.?
