What are you wanting to control?

I bought a unit at Sears that plugs into a 120V outlet. It has one 'tool' 
outlet and a couple of 'slave' outlets. I use it to switch on the dust 
collector (shop vac) when I use a radial arm saw. When I switch on the saw, 
it sends power to the shop vac (leave the vac switch 'on'). When I switch 
off the saw, the vac runs for about 10 - 20 more seconds before it cuts the 
power.
