Has anyone here calculated how much devices that use small amounts of
electricity add up to? This sounds like a good Sunday morning project.
I've got things around the house that I rarely use. A TV and clock
radio upstairs. Battery chargers plugged in, VCRs and DVD players I
don't use, phone recorder, camera holder, power supplies for computer
speakers, a couple of CO detectors, cable box, cable modem power supply,
router power supply, too many clocks, oh yeah, the VOIC has a power
supply, etc. Every time I think I've thought of them all I think of
some more. These things must add up to
a lot of energy use each month and a lot of it is not needed. I guess
I'll head to big lots and get some power strips and consolidate the
power users I don't need and put them on the power strips and see what
it amounts to on a month's electric bill.
