Green Board been well received - saving on standby power and money with a flick of a switch!

Power Saving Green Board, model B12R  

The Green Board is designed to save power to devices that are in standby but still consuming power. The unique remote switch allows 4 outlets on the remote bank to be completely turned off. The other 4 outlets remain on for devices like pay TV decoders or any recording device that needs to be on permanently so as to perform time related tasks like recording. This allows the user to get the best of both worlds while saving on energy consumption and therefore saving money too.

As an added bonus the remote button has a clever USB charging circuit built into the switch cover. The circuit will allow a single power hungry iphone to charge or two other devices like an MP3 player or camera.

The two LED lights on the button switch indicate there is power to the USB charger and also alerts the user if the remote bank is turned on or off. The LED lights have been placed at the rear of the switch so as to offer a softer illumination when in a dark environment.

The remote switch has an extra long cable to connect into the side of the board ensuring there is ample lead for even the largest systems. The cable ensures there is power for the USB chargers as well as allowing the operator to easily switch the remote power saving bank "on" or "off" easily. No need to worry about replacing batteries or calibrating either. Our Research and Development team have come up with another Australian first – this board can connect to an automated home system by purchasing a separate lead! The only product in its class currently on the market that is able to do this.

November 2009 saw the release of the Smart Green Board. The board has a built in USB charger on the remote switch and is designed to turn off standby power and saving on elctircity and money too. It is also the only board in its class that can be integrated into most Automated Home Systems.

Versatile Tags

Each system is different so colour coding on boards may not work for you. This is why we have versatile tags so you can customize and still know which cables are connected where, helpful? We think so.

Compact Design

Space is always an issue when boards are placed behind or in cabinets this is why we have chosen a compact design with our boards”.

Cutting Power

Fact – cutting power to plasma, LCD and projector systems can cause expensive damage. See why we don’t offer this in our products.

Flame Retardant

Fact  - flame retardant compounds are added to our plastic housing. So if you apply a blow torch they will burn but as soon as this is removed the flame will be extinguished. That’s what quality is all about.

Biodegradable and Recyclable

All parts of our packaging are biodegradable and recyclable. Yes, this adds to our cost but we also care about the environment.

Globe Protector

Ask about our new Globe Protector for your LCD TV or projector. Want to avoid a $600 plus globe replacement then just ask us how.

Notebook Protector Filter

Our Notebook protector filters, protects and automatically calibrates itself to the voltage supply. 110v or 240v No Problem!

computer efficiency

Our Dynamic Active Tracking filter assists computer efficiency by reducing software glitches, file corruption, system lock ups and other anomalies that can be very frustrating. Not to mention the extreme level of power protection too!

Dynamic Active Tracking

Most boards offer passive filtering where our Dynamic Active Tracking is intelligent and will seek out impurities and rectify them before they reach your equipment – it’s a bit like disinfecting the power by using hospital grade disinfectant.

Improvement

Our customers tell us they notice a marked improvement in their audio & video systems because our products clean the power and ensure you enjoy what you paid for.

The Fastest

Our products are the fastest reacting in the market.

Warranty

6 year replacement warranty plus a connected equipment warranty applies to almost the whole range.

Power Protection

People in our organization have been involved in Power Protection since the early 80’s.

Clean Power

All of our products CLEAN power first then offer protection. This is why we have the edge when put onto Digital technology.

Patent Or Pending Technology

Over 40% of our products have patent or pending technology included in them.

Unusual Problem

Have an unusual problem? Then ask us for help via our solutions section. We just love to help if we can.

Research & Development

One of the major reasons Thor Technologies has enjoyed market acceptance is because of its experienced and talented research and development team. Success has not been by accident but due to careful planning and market research coupled with the strong desire to lead with cutting edge technology.

Researchand Development pictureWe have always believed in continuing to improve and strive for new innovative products. This is an ongoing process and is often borne from valuable feedback received from our customers.

One of the reasons we are happy to offer a no questions asked replacement warranty is because as a manufacturer we value the information we can obtain from products that have been active in the field. The data obtained from these products help us to keep improving our range.

All of our research and development is done in Australia. So you can be assured the products are made to suit Australian conditions.

Wholly owned Australian Manufacturer

Thor Technologies is a wholly owned Australian Manufacturer. How many of our competitors can say that?

6 year Warranty

All Thor products have a full 6 years no fuss product replacement warranty. The reason this definitive period was selected rather than say offer a lifetime warranty is because most people surveyed felt lifetime was a little grey. For instance is it the products lifetime and if so then if it "blows" after a week does that determine the expected life of the product? So we chose to use the internationally recognised formula that dictates all components have an expected life of 50,000 hours which equates to 6 years.

What is the warranty on THOR products?

Connected Equipment Warranty

Yes we do on all our plug-in range of products. We decided to stand by our products and have various levels of connected equipment cover from up to $100,000 to $500,000 cover depending on the product. Full conditions are documented and included with each product.

Do you have a connected equipment warranty?

USA lifetime Warranty

Lifetime is to confusing, is it the products lifetime or the consumers lifetime if it’s the products then surely this means that when it quits whether one week or four years its life is over so there is no warranty, or is it the consumers are they suggesting it will last 50 years, that’s absurd. So to stop the guess work all Thor products are built to the international TBF of 50,000 hours this equates to 6 years.

Why don‘t you offer a lifetime warranty like USA companies such as Belkin?

Electrical Approval Number

It means the product has been manufactured to Australian Standards for electrical safety, It is not an approval for actual function which is why what is inside your protection device is so important. Always compare circuit design if you are serious about protecting your expensive equipment. Beware of gimmick selling and silly promises.

What does the electrical approval number on power protection mean?

How long doing Power Protection

Since 1983 when their founder pioneered consumer Power Protection in the Australian and New Zealand market place.

How long have the Thor Technologies designers and developers of the THOR protection range been in power protection?

LED on boards

The Smart Series boards have "on" lights to inform the user that the unit is "on" however as long as the product is letting power through to your equipment it is filtering and protecting, if it stops protecting, it will stop letting power through and you simply contact us for replacement instructions.

How do I know at any time the THOR is still protecting my equipment?

Why is filtered Surge Device better

All of today’s high tech equipment will perform better if it is only receiving clean sine wave power, this is even more critical when protecting digital equipment.

Why is a full filtered surge device better?

What is Dynamic Active Tracking

A unique Smart Series bonus on our A12 model - this Protection strategy encompasses self-diagnostic and corrective circuitry. Traditional power protection always relies on simple surge absorbing circuitry at pre-defined points on the wave form, however THOR Dynamic Active Tracking monitors the Sine Wave, instantaneously sensing and clamping transient spikes and surges to a safe level, regardless of where they appear on the wave form.

SMART SERIES additionally filters and cleans all incoming power and through its unique 3 – Bank Isolation, prevents EMI and RFI pollution as well as inter-circuit back EMF – all of which are major contributors to software glitches, digital malfunction and hardware breakdown in both Computers and Home Theatre equipment.

What is Dynamic Active Tracking and why is it better?

Aerial Connection drop in signal

In rare instances and generally in an area where the aerial is using a booster to enhance or amplify picture quality as the TV signal to that area is extremely weak, you may find that you can not use the incoming aerial protection on the Smart Series.

This is due to the passive protection circuit highlighting the weak signal, it is not a fault of the Smart SerieS board, simply leave the aerial connected as it was previously and connect the AC power plugs as shown on the simple installation instructions provided with the unit, bypassing the AV/TV connection

When I connected the AV/TV aerial connection to my system I noticed a drop in picture quality what could cause that?

Earth Leakage Device why the need for power filter

Earth leakage devices, or safety switches as they are more commonly known are compulsory in new buildings in all states of australia and we all applaud that, however you must understand they are designed to protect people against electrocution, these devices do not protect equipment in fact they will trip when a short circuit occurs in an appliance, this is after the appliance has already been damaged.

Our Smart Series and Surge Shield products are constantly monitoring and correcting the incoming voltage / current preventing damaging and disruptive polluted power from ever reaching valuable equipment..

I have an earth leakage device fitted to my house why do I need a Power Filter?

Earth Diverter why the need for power filter

A surge diverter does exactly that, it divert most surges and transients direct to earth as they enter the building it will not prevent noise pollution and it will not stop surges and transients which occur after it.

There are two areas that most transients originate from  (1) the power grid network of supply, prior to reaching your building and your earth diverter is good for these and (2) Electrical shorts, faults and noise pollution from within your building this is very common and is the major source of dirty or polluted power, something today’s Digital Equipment hates.

Smart Series models' filter banks, isolate groups of valuable equipment from the rest of the dwellings supply and go even further on the a, and b, series isolating individual appliances from each other at filter level. of course there is the added advantage to property renters when they move, as they can take their Protection with them.

I have an earth diverter fitted in my fuse box why do I need a power filter?

Will THOR protect from lightning

The closer your home or office is to a direct lightning strike the greater the risk of equipment damage. As Lightning travels at around 300,000 Kms per second nothing designed by man will stop a direct hit, however the odds of a direct hit are quite rare and Thor products can certainly minimise the risk of damage. The degree of risk reduction is usually measured by the specifications. The faster the unit reacts combined with the amount of energy it can absorb. Units of measurement is usually in AMPS or Joules.

Thor will honour its warranty even if there is a direct hit of lightning.

Will this THOR protect my equipment from Lightning ?

how many times will THOR Filter work

A surprising number of the damaging and degrading spikes and surges occur without our knowledge many of them are even caused by other appliances and events in our home or office. (switches turning off and on, motors starting and stopping, etc) These events are taken care of by your Smart Series pro-active filter, the only loss being some of the joules of energy absorption available in your Smart Series.

When the available amount of joules have been used up or the Smart Series is damaged while protecting it will simply stop letting power through to your equipment. Should this happen simply contact us and we will replace your smart series free of charge for 6 years.

How many times will a THOR filter work, do I have to replace it if it gets a surge or spike?

Power packs into Power Filter

It can't hurt but transformers convert AC incoming power to DC outgoing power and are considered low risk from most forms of power disturbances, so if you have room by all means use your filter protection but it is certainly not a priority.

Do I need to plug my power packs into a Power Filter?

Telephone Line Protection how important to use

Telephone line protection is very important and this is highlighted in the front of most telephone books where it states quite clearly to avoid using your telephone equipment during storm activity and in some instances it is prudent to disconnect equipment such as cordless telephone hand sets and computer modems during close lightning activity. This is not always possible as you may not be in attendance or the storm does not seem close by and in view (storm activity can be miles away and still damage valuable equipment)

Note: Thor products discharge telephone spikes directly to earth not through the common earth on the power board as is the practice with most other manufacturers. Even on our entry level D1/45 Smart Filter, a separate yellow earth cable can be seen in the circuit photo to reveal the telephone spike discharge route around the power board for maximum protection.

How important is it for me to use the telephone line protection for my modem or telephone equipment?

Power Protection never had a power surge why do I need it

Technology has taken us to a new era in equipment, everything is faster , smaller, hotter (today’s equipment runs at much higher temperatures and the new digital age is much less tolerant to power pollution and voltage fluctuations) even the Power Utility Companies that supply the power to your premises, will recommend that all of their customers use quality filtered power protection.
 
On top of this you maybe surprised to learn that if you do not take "reasonable care" to protect your electrical equipment and it does get damaged your insurance company may not cover your claim. Ouch!!

Why do I need Power Protection now - I have never had any trouble from power surges or lightning?

Sound System be improved with a filter

There is no question that good quality power filtration will allow your equipment to perform closer to its maximum potential by only allowing clean power to its operating circuits, there have also been many reports that quality power filtration improves sound quality, Smart Series Dynamic Active Tracking Filters have had improvements recorded (check out our testimonials) but as this is a subjective observation by individuals on there particular equipment brand and selection of equipment, it is something that you the owner will have to decide. We believe there are definite improvements in performance and reliability with the use of our Smart Series Power Filters. Have a look at our Smart Power Station combination if you are after the "rolls royce" power supply option.

Can a power filter improve my sound system performance?

Filter Banks explained A and B series

The Thor A series (A12,A12F, A12BF) includes Dynamic Active Tracking filters which have 3 physically* separate circuits on the one board. This separation is hard wired and each separate circuit has its own dynamic active tracking filter. All 3 banks have identical levels of protection just like having 3 separate Dynamic Active Tracking filter boards. This allows the user to isolate different types of appliances from each other for maximum protection of valuable equipment, enhanced performance, and safety.

The Thor B series filters (B12R, B8F) have 2 separate 4 outlet filters that offer physical separation of 2 groups of 4 outlets with the same result.

* physically - It is like having 3 boards all in the one housing.

Some brands define isolation which refers to a frequency isolation. This means that it may contain some electrical interference (RFI or EMI), however, a spike or surge from an adjacent plug can still cause damage to whatever is plugged into the "isolated" outlet. It is not a physically separate circuit so be careful.

Why do Thor go to so much trouble providing three separated groups of filter banks on the A12 series filter? And 2 separate filter banks on there B12R & B8F models?

Phone Line protection when power is off

Yes. Our telecommunications protection circuit has its own separate earth line to divert excess voltage. As long as it is connected to the GPO (even if the GPO is in the “off” switch) then any surge or spike coming down the telephone line will be diverted to earth and protecting your equipment.

If I plug my phone line into the power board but the power switch is turned off (but the plug is still plugged into the wall socket) am I still protected by my phone line?

About Us

There is no substitute for experience and when co founders of Thor Technologies, Nile Ausmus and Roy Stokes developed the Surge Shield range of products there was over 65 years of experience behind the development team. We have grown significantly since then and this is shown by the innovation in our latest range of cutting edge products.

All research, development and engineering is undertaken in Australia. Thor Technologies is 100% Australian and proud of it. Even today the hardwired range is still 100% manufactured in Australia.

We are a Company that produces products for our own backyard so you can be assured that when we make a promise we have to stand by it. Being Australian we intend to only ever offer products that do what they say they do. At the end of the day it is what’s inside that counts and that is why we are not afraid to show you our circuits as pictured on all our boxes. Some of you would be surprised at what little components are in some of the other brands. They must think the bigger and heavier and glossier the product the more it will sell. If you are buying power protection based on this concept then you may need more help than we can give, so be careful.

The Surge Shield range brought power protection which had not changed much since the early 80’s, into the new millennium. Digital technology has come a long way and is far more sensitive to power disturbances. This makes clean power an essential requirement when Home Theatre, computers or processor controlled systems are being used.

2006 saw the launch of another generation of product – The SMART SERIES range. The latest release from this generation in February 2011, the Smart Protect 4 and Smart Rack Guard 11. Then in the next few months comes another planned addition to the range in the 20 Amp rack mount version of the very successful Smart Power Station.
