Monitor Off

by Abelardo Suriga

Monitor Off puts your monitor on standby with a click. A simple move of the mouse or keyboard press will wake up the computer in a few seconds.

Click on the icon to put your monitor to sleep. Hold down CTRL key to move the Widget around.

A typical 17" CRT monitor consumes 80 watts electricity; putting it on on standby reduces it to about 0-15 watts. Setting computer monitors to Power Save Mode saves money, electricity and reduces carbon dioxide emissions. After all, money isn't all you're saving.

    I love the idea of this but would it be possible like others have mentioned to have it for dual monitors? I have to switch my secondary monitor of to play games, would be great if this could do that

    Hi Abelardo,
    Great widget! Very simple and effective.
    I agree with the other feedbackers regarding a countdown preference for time to disable mouse would be very handy.
    Thanks for making it.
    Broncho.
