We are out of home almost 9 hours/day and sleeping around 06-07/day.
I was wondering about the pros and cons of leaving my devices in standby mode. With a draft calculation for my home devices the average cost of the standby mode would be around 80€-100€ / year. (2 Tvs, 2 google home mini, 1 radio, 2 satellite boxes, 2 tv boxes, 1 extender, 2 laptops etc)
Of course except the yearly cost it would be helpful in terms of reducing the total electricity demand thus the sustainability etc
I really don’t know if I completely turn off these devices when out of home or during the night would damage them or could cause other troubles?
What are your thoughts if I could automate (eg with a wifi wall plug) to turn them off completely off when out of home or during our sleep time?
