2. Phone Chargers Left Plugged In
Leaving your phone charger plugged into the wall—even when not charging a phone—still uses energy and warms the adapter.
Tip:
Unplug it once your device is fully charged.
3. Microwaves
Even when idle, microwaves with digital displays and internal timers continuously consume power.
Helpful hint:
If you’re not using the clock feature, unplug it when not in use.
4. Laptops and Desktop Computers
Computers in sleep mode still consume electricity. Add connected accessories like printers and speakers, and the drain increases.
Recommendation:
Shut down and unplug the system if you’re not going to use it for a while.
5. Video Game Consoles
Modern consoles often run background tasks like system updates, even when powered off.
What to do:
Unplug them or use a power strip if you don’t use them daily.
6. Speakers and Sound Systems
Many audio systems remain in standby, ready to activate—using power in the meantime.
Solution:
Unplug them at night or plug them into a smart outlet for better control.
7. Electric Clocks and Alarm Clocks
Though small, these devices stay connected 24/7 and constantly draw electricity.
