-=== Synopsis === 
- 
-Powermiser is a wall/bench mounted plate that provides a button you can push in a deadmans switch style to get 15mins of power from a GPO socket. Repeat presses will increase the timeout in 15 min increments to a maximum at any moment of 60min. Time remaining is indicated by 4 RGB LEDs and alarms sound at programmed intervals. Countdown can be increased to the maximum at any time. 
- 
-This aims to solve 2 problems: 
- 
-  * Unused GPO's get turned off saving power 
-  * Requires a person to attend the powered devices at a minimum of once per 60min, which removes ability for things like cnc devices or 3d printers to be left unattended. 
- 
-Timer settings might be customised per installation via dip switches or headers.
