Hidden in life
There are really a lot of "electricity bill assassins".
If your appliance bill is high
Let's see if they're "to blame"
01
Dust-eating set-top boxes
A seemingly inconspicuous set-top box, you are paying the electricity bill for it every month!
Its standby power is basically the same as the operating power, consuming nearly 0.4 degrees of power in a day and about 12 degrees in a month. If the set-top box is kept in standby and running mode for a year, it will consume hundreds of millions of more electricity!
02
Router in the corner
As long as the router is connected to the power supply, whether it is working or not, whether there is a device to connect to the Internet with it, its power consumption has not changed significantly, and the power is about 5 watts.
If you don't use it for a month, the router consumes 3.6 degrees of power.
03
"Stealing" water heaters
If the operating power of the water heater is 896-3000 watts, the power consumption is 3 watts a day in the standby state, and the power consumption is about 2 kWh a month. If the 30-40 liter electric water heater is kept in a heated state, it will work for about 0.4 kWh for an hour!
04
Air conditioning, washing machine
The standby power of a washing machine is about 1.15 watts, and the standby power of an air conditioner with a power of 2600 watts is 1.11 watts. In standby mode, the power consumption of these two appliances is about 0.03 kWh a day, and about 0.9 kWh a month.
Not at all
The small set-top box actually consumes the most power!
Plus other standby appliances
I paid a lot more electricity bills in a month......
What's more noteworthy
These standby appliances
All have quiescent currents
It doesn't just consume electricity
It also keeps getting hot
There may be a safety hazard!
Smart home and small home appliances standby power list
| Smart home and small appliances | Standby power (unit: W) |
| Robot vacuums | 1.4 |
| Induction | 0.8 |
| humidifier | 0.7 |
| dishwasher | 0.5 |
| air purifier | 0.4 |
Smart appliances with functions such as infrared wake-up and Wi-Fi wake-up, such as sweeping robots, and smart home appliances that can be remotely controlled through mobile phones, consume less power when they are connected to the power but not in use or turned on for a long time.
However, smart toilets, water dispensers and other electrical appliances with heating and heat preservation functions consume more electricity because of their uninterrupted heating functions.
As a special reminder, when the smart toilet seat seat is insulated, the power changes periodically between 40W and 1.4W.
PART.01
Choose an outlet with a switch, and when you are not using electrical appliances, you can turn off the switch of the socket directly.
PART.02
Before leaving home, check all electrical equipment, turn off idle electrical appliances, and unplug electrical appliances to save electricity and eliminate potential safety hazards.
PART.03
When there is no one at home for a long time, the main switch of the power supply can be turned off to avoid power loss, and the main gate can be set separately for equipment that cannot be cut off such as refrigerators.
