CES: My day one highlight? A surge protector

Kudos for hiliting an important issue: Phantom power drains are a big problem, kudos for calling attention to it.

If the numbers are correct, think of the cancer,asthma,and developmental development causing pollution we can stop producing by using 10% less energy from fossil fuels.

And yes, it does work that way - you could take more than a few generating stations offline (or scale back their production) with a ten percent reduction in demand.

As "computer and gadget people" we should _continue_ to improve our performance in this regard.; Posted by: TheSchmett Posted on: 01/08/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
