How it works

  1. Did you know that many electronic devices have a standby mode? They are always on standby and secretly steal your electricity. With simple tricks, you can turn off the energy thieves.

  2. Chargers also consume electricity when no phone, tablet, or laptop is being charged. So stop that. Unplug your chargers from the outlet as soon as your devices are fully charged.

  3. Do you have an electric toothbrush that is always plugged in? It's best to unplug it after every charge.

  4. Turn off the TV and other devices directly on the device or use a power strip with a switch. This way, you can always disconnect all electronic devices from the power supply.

  5. You've identified the gaming console as an energy hog. After playing, the console is often left in standby mode, wasting unnecessary electricity. Get power strips with switches so you can turn off all devices with one button.
