Will It Consume Power If the Mobile Phone Charger Is Not Unplugged?
When the charger isn't charging, do you stay plugged in, or do you unplug it? Recently, the reporter conducted a survey on this, in which more than half of the respondents said that because the commonly used smartphones consume a lot of power, they need to be charged almost every day, so for the convenience of use, the charger is always connected to the power supply superior
According to calculations, the charger will consume 100mw of power when plugged into the socket. The power consumption of 100 milliwatts is negligible for a person or a family. Every 10,000 hours, that is, it is continuously plugged into the power strip, and it will consume 1 kWh of electricity for about 14 months.
Why does it consume power?
The charger is not unplugged from the power socket. Although the charger is not connected to the electrical appliance, the circuit board inside the charger is powered on and is still in working condition. In this working situation, it will consume electricity. For example, a TV, although it is turned off, if it is not unplugged, a button on the remote control will still respond. This shows that when the TV is in the standby state, there are still some internal circuit boards working. "
On the other hand, if the electrical appliance is left unloaded for a long time, it will affect the service life of the electrical appliance to a certain extent. Electrical appliances have a parameter of "continuous power-on working time"。 If an electrical appliance is left plugged from the power outlet for years, the service life of the appliance will be reduced.
So, whether it is in terms of saving electricity or maintaining electrical appliances, the power should be turned off after the electrical appliances are used or charged.
