Just leave your cord laying off to the side of the unit and it will be always off :)</p>

Recognizing, of course, that at some point the frequency attainable will be limited by the mechanical relay in the IoT Power Relay (due to both mechanical movement speed limitations of the contacts, and the inductance of the relay coil).</p></p>
