Sony Android TVs waste 25W in standby due to built-in Google Chromecast
If you're wondering how much energy is consumed by your electronics, a base model kill-a-watt for about $30 will show you watts and cumulative watt-hours. It's a fantastic tool that pays for itself besides giving an eye-opening, interesting experience. You'd be surprised at the things in your house consuming electricity 24/7.<p>Almost everything in my house is either on power strip surge protectors or just unplugged.
