I don't think so. It's a real energy sink; researchers estimate
phantom power as 5 to 10% of household energy usage.


Those researchers - what kindy were they from ? Clearly hadn't learned
basic arithmetic yet....


Like all such figures, you have to carefully read the actual claims,
carefully read the "research" objectives, carefully read the untested &
unverified assumptions, and then throw it all in the bin where it belongs.
