Those appliances standby mode use up a lot of electricity. Steve should try drinking ginger tea before going to sleep. Those LED light bulbs are awesome.
The thing with desktop PCs is that unless you really need it for like gaming or editing then using something like a Ipad or a laptop is far far better for energy consumption, plus what I do is to get a portable battery to take to work with me and charge it up at work to be used at home for charging phones and Ipads :)
we are from Saskatchewan,Canada. We have 2x 28 cu ft fridge and 2 same size freezers in our house. And I have been debating to get a 3rd one. I don't think I could live with any less. Thankfully, our energy cost is still reasonable.
Hi thanks for your sharing, but I am afraid some of your advice may be misleading unless you have cross checked the appliance manuals. The shorter cycles in dishwashers and washing machines generally use more water (and possibly electricity) to enable quicker cycles. To achieve the same results within a shorter time period the machines need to run more powerfully using more resources( water and possibly electricity )This is why any “eco” mode runs ages - with washing machine the clothes are soaked for longer so requiring less power and resource (at the expense of time!).
All our outdoor flood lights are use solar energy. Not hard wired. The most important this is the insulation of the house to keep the indoor temperature. All walls must be insulated. Use double glassed windows. No leading doors.
@@loeric1020 Best way to tell is to check the manual. Different machine has a different setting. You can always find the manual online. The machine i am using saying quick mode uses more energy than the ECO because it uses more energy to heat the water and to dry the dishes. Just check the manual and it tells.
When I make tea in the morning. I boil up the kettle and make my husband tea in his double walled tumbler and add in my water bottle. It is still pipping hot when he returns from work 8 hrs later. If you buy a good brand it will keep water hot for 12 hrs or cold for 24hrs.
The tumbler I got years ago from Amazon by the brand 'Reduce COLD 1'. My water bottle is by the brand 'Chillys'. There is lots of other brands if you make sure they are vacuum double walled.
We, in the USA, paying $0.00 for the electric bill because we have solar panels on the roof top. By definition we should make money from the panels because they make more power than we used. And the excess power going back to the grid.
