Does anyone know of any good inline AC switches which are grounded? I just want something that allows me to switch my Amiga on and off.

@XerTheSquirrel God you just reminded me of the lack of a power button.

@XerTheSquirrel The fix at the time was a power bar on the desk, as it turned off your monitor and printer too. Such convenience! :P

@Nurbs Well, my power brick has no power switch on it (since I cut the Amiga power brick and used a modern one).

@XerTheSquirrel @Nurbs if you get an IP power bar, you'll technically have an internet-connected amiga

@SomeEgrets @Nurbs My Amiga is going to be connected to the internet hopefully sometime this month.

@XerTheSquirrel There's a bunch of IoT switches that are grounded but probably overkill

@XerTheSquirrel or like, $7 3 outlet switchable power strip
