Don’t throw your money out the window.
1. Tip – Energy-saving light bulbs
Even though energy-saving lamps and LEDs are more expensive to buy than other light sources, this is compensated for by their enormous energy savings and up to 10 times longer life.
2. Tip – Screensaver
Set – instead of the screen saver – an automatic standby mode after 10-15 minutes of absence. Your PC also consumes more power with colourful, moving images.
3. Tip – Switchable sockets
You can save unnecessary costs for electricity by pulling the plugs. Of course, this is more convenient with switchable sockets! When the switch is flipped, the units are disconnected from the mains.
4. Tip – Laptop
An energy-efficient laptop only needs a maximum of 15 watts. An energy-efficient PC, on the other hand, consumes around 60 watts during operating time.
5. Tip – Apparent off switch
When buying a new TV, make sure that it has a power switch. Because even when you have pressed the off switch on the set, many televisions still continue to consume electricity.
