Your house is filled with vampires that suck $100s Welcome to a Laptop AC Adapter specialist of the Sony Ac Adapter You shut down your computer. You turn off your TV. You take the popcorn out of the microwave. And yet all of these devices and more continue to suck electricity. This vampire power, also called phantom power, idle load, or standby power, keeps going even after the device is turned off. How much does it waste? Hundreds of dollars per year, according to some estimates. In fact, the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC) published a study after this story was first published indicating that vampire power cost $19 billion per year—about $165 per U.S. household with battery like Sony PCGA-AC16V AC adapter, Sony PCGA-AC19V1 AC adapter, Sony VGN-FW350 AC adapter, Sony VGN-NW100 AC adapter, Sony VGN-S460 AC adapter, Sony VGN-SZ390 AC adapter, Sony PCGA-AC51 AC adapter, Sony PCGA-AC71 AC adapter, Sony VGP-AC19V9 AC adapter, Sony PCGA-AC19V1 AC adapter, Sony PCGA-AC16V6 AC adapter, Sony VGP-AC19V10 AC adapter. The report estimates that “idle load electricity represents on average nearly 23 percent of household electricity consumption in northern California homes.” But the numbers are difficult to pin down. Alan Meier, a senior scientist at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory estimated “that we’re somewhere on the order of five percent.” He described that as a “hunch.” I can’t test everyone. So I set out to find out which devices in my own home waste electricity when they’re not used, and how much they waste. These are my results. When you turn a modern device “off,” it probably stays on in a low-power mode. Common culprits include computers, HDTVs, A/V receivers, printers, and your microwave. Any one such device isn’t going to use up a lot of power. But if you have 10 or 20, the waste builds. It’s called vampire power because when it’s supposed to be dead, it still sucks. Three signs can tell you without a doubt that a turned-off device is using juice: 1. Something on it is glowing—usually an LED. The Simpsons parodied this issue brilliantly. 2. You can turn it on or give it a command from a remote control, a smartphone, or over a network. 3. It knows the time as soon as it comes on. But I won’t give the designation vampire to everything that matches one of these attributes. While a device needs power to do any of these, it doesn’t have to use much. Some really use so little power that it’s inconsequential.
