Comment on Did you ever use your Toe to turn one of these on or off?

My toe was for the AVR and UPS. People who grew up in countries with unstable/unreliable electricity can relate. The family desktop computer was basically: power socket > AVR > UPS > computer, with the first two on the floor (therefore using feet to turn them on), and the system unit on the desk right beside the CRT monitor.

Your UPS didn’t also clean your voltage?

It did, but we already had an AVR long before the time small UPS units for home use became affordable enough, so we just added it in there in a series.

Ah, definitely makes sense.
