MODEL TS1814
The AV Advanced PowerTap+ reduces active and standby power
loss in audio visual (AV) home entertainment centers by detecting
when the TV and AV peripheral electronics are not being used and
turns them off.
The AV Advanced PowerTap+ features a highly-accurate sensor that
detects infrared (IR) remote control activity and motion to determine
whether the TV is being used. If no IR remote control activity or
motion is detected within the countdown timer period, the power tap
automatically powers down the TV and peripheral AV electronics
plugged into the switched outlets.
4 outlets:
1 always-on outlets (1 transformer-spaced outlet)
3 switched outlets (1 transformer-spaced outlet)
Resettable circuit breaker
1,080 Joules of surge protection at 500 VPR
Ceramic-encased, fireproof surge protection
Consumes <1 Watt at all times
Power switching electromechanical relays rated for 100,000
switching cycles at a full 15 amp load
Software and hardware filtering technology filters out IR
interference from non-AV equipment
LED status indication (ground, surge status, switched)
<40 dB noise filtering
Low-profile, wall-mount design
Includes a receptacle wall-mounting screw for more permanent
applications
Supports high-level Consumer Electronic Control (CEC)
commands via optional TAV-Link™ cable (sold seperately) that
connects from the Multi-sensor to an HDMI port on the TV

AV ADVANCED POWERTAP
OVERVIEW FIREPROOF SURGE PROTECTION
TAV-LINK™ MULTI-SENSOR
LED notification that flashes when IR activity or motion is detected
Continuous dual-color (red/blue) flashing LED alert notification
that activates ten minutes prior to shutdown
Optional soft-chirping piezo buzzer that alerts user of a pending
shutdown ten minutes and three minutes prior to shutdown
Manual on/off button
Supports high-level CEC commands via optional TAV-Link cable
that allow “smart” TVs to safely store their data and settings prior
to powering down
TAV-Link functionality that allows gaming consoles to enter an
energy-saving mode earlier and without any corruption of data

The TAV-Link Multi-sensor detects IR remote control signals and
motion. It features an intelligent algorithm that first considers IR
remote signals and then looks for both IR remote signals and motion
if no IR commands are detected.

KEY FEATURES
Traditional surge suppression products use standard Metal Oxide
Varistor (MOV) components. TrickleStar’s AV Advanced PowerTap+
incorporates advanced surge protection technology with
ceramic-encased MOVs capable of suppressing more energy and
dissipating heat faster than traditional MOVs.
Ceramic-encased MOVs have better thermal properties and have a
lifespan up to three times longer than standard MOVs. The ceramic
casing is fireproof and therefore capable of preventing fire during
abnormal surge conditions.
Premium-quality surge protection that reduces active and standby energy wasted by home entertainment center electronics
