Phone cords, printers, televisions, microwaves, kitchen appliances, computers/laptops, tablets, anything with a remote, etc. Any of these devices might be using phantom energy and costing you extra money every month, just by being plugged in. To think that on average about 20% of a homes energy use comes from phantom energy is mind blowing. The article stats "...you estimate that you watch about three hours of TV per day. That would mean that for 21 hours, it’s using ghost energy."

How much energy could you save just by unplugging devices when you don't use them?

Countless reports, including one from the Natural Resources Defense Council, have identified that phantom power use can account for over 20% of electricity use in a typical home.
