Green Tip #23
Use a power strip, take charge!
Did you know that most appliances still pull energy while in standby? Microwaves, televisions, receivers, laptops, and chargers are culprits.
- The Department of Energy states that phantom loads account for 5% to 10% of household electricity consumption.
- Powers strips give us the ability to cut off these energy suckers and prevent wasted resources.
- There are even Smart Strips available with different plug settings that cut off power using an auto-timer.
