The Powerful Power Link

One of my favorite devices that we have in our lending library is the Power Link, Environment Control Unit. This device can be used in so many ways across populations. All it takes is a great imagination and an electrical devices and presto: instant access, instant cause/effect. Here are some ideas I have used and seen: fan, radio, blender, light, paper shredder, pencil sharpener, or television, the possibilities are endless, anything with a cord will work. Because you have the option of setting the power link to direct or latch the user will be able to activate the device for a select number of seconds or minutes OR will be able to turn on the device with a switch and later turn off the device with another hit to the switch. If you haven't tried this device, check it out from us.
