Equipment in sleep mode can account for upto 10% of your electrical bill apart from heating!

We can never say it too often; you should switch off all equipment that is in sleep mode, in other words, either unplug it or disconnect it or use a multi plug with a switch.

WeeDoo's suggestion:
Connect the television set, the DVD player, the tape recorder on the same multi plug which has a switch. Watch out for the offers yet to come from WIRECOM Technologies, very soon a Pack Elec will enable you to switch off the sleep mode in a planned manner.
