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.

What to do:
Unplug them or use a power strip if you don’t use them daily.

Solution:
Unplug them at night or plug them into a smart outlet for better control.
