I looked into the switched surge protectors that you were talking about (Monster, Panamax etc) but $250+ is a little step just to turn on my amps and a 120V component. If the Outlaws really wanted to make the 12v switch useful then it needs a lot more output than 50mA (of current. Thats only enough current to turn on two, or maybe three, amps (I have 13). Which would preclude it from being used with a system comprised of the Model 2200's. Even the Xantech AC-1 switch cost $100, which is kind of step considering I paid about five bucks for the relay to do the same thing.
