Reduce Always-On Wasted Electricity
Summary: ?
Description
Devices like phone chargers, computer cords, gaming consoles, DVRs, TVs, and even coffee pots each draw small amounts of power when off. These are what we call "energy vampires." Together, these devices can add up to as much as 20-25% of your monthly electricity bill in this 'standby mode', according to Sense Energy Monitors. Try to unplug electronics when not in use, use on/off power strips, and use smart technologies that can help with your energy usage.
