HOW TO REDUCE PHANTOM ELECTRICITY

• Unplug Appliances, Electronics and Devices Not in Use?– One of the most common way to reduce vampire electricity is that of telephone chargers. When you are not charging your phone, the electricity is still flowing through your plugged-in charger even if it is disconnected from your phone.?Typically, households have more than one phone charger plugged in, which means the wasted energy is even more.?Get in the habit of unplugging your charger once your phones have been fully charged.
• Smart Power Strips?– For all your electronics, entertainment systems, sound systems and video game consoles, it may be difficult to unplug them all the time, especially since many of them have plugs and cords that are well hidden out of sight. With that said, being that they use the greatest amount of phantom electricity, an ideal solution for minimizing the usage is that of smart power strips.?Contrary to regular power strips, state of the art smart power strips actually prevent the flow of any electricity when the devices, systems or the likes are not in use.?These innovative strips are more than perfect for multi-device units and systems you may have because they can all be simply plugged into one single strip.
