Do you hate rising electric bills? I could NOT believe that my bill this month was over $100 for the second month in a row and there are only 2 full-time employed adults in our house. I started to think about ways to reduce my electric bill because we simply cannot afford many more months of $100+ bills.
Did you know that some electronic devices like televisions and alarm clocks, continue to use electricity to power peripherals such as remote controls and clock displays even when they are turned off? Many people don’t realize that this “phantom” load, or standby power loss, can account for approximately 5 to 10 percent of your annual energy cost, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.
Advanced power strips (APS) cut standby power loss using distinct outlets designed to save you energy and money, while offering all the same features as standard power strips, such as surge suppression. An advanced power strip is able to cut the power to your electronics when they are not being used, saving energy and saving you up to $30 annually.
With school back in session and the fall season upon us, many of us are spending more time at home – kids doing homework on their computers and connecting with their friends and classmates online, and families watching more TV as the days grow shorter.
