On its own that seems insignificant, but when you multiply that number by every charger, television, game console, speaker, router, and adapter in your home, the waste becomes very real over the course of a year.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/26a0.svg\" alt=\"\u26a0\ufe0f\" \/>\u00a0The Three Main Reasons You Should Never Leave a Charger Plugged In<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>It Wastes Electricity and Money<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-10\">\n<div id=\"tinyhouse-zone.com_responsive_3\" data-google-query-id=\"CLis17Hl3pEDFRwnBgAdrm8BZg\">\n<div id=\"google_ads_iframe_\/23201474937\/tinyhouse-zone.com\/tinyhouse-zone.com_responsive_3_0__container__\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Chargers draw power twenty four hours a day even when doing absolutely nothing. One charger may only waste about ten to fifty cents of electricity per year. However, the average household easily contains ten or more chargers, power bricks, and adapters. Together they can quietly cost five to fifteen dollars or more every year with no benefit at all.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f4ac.svg\" alt=\"\ud83d\udcac\" \/>\u00a0Real impact: In the United States, phantom power accounts for roughly ten percent of household energy use according to the Department of Energy.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2705.svg\" alt=\"\u2705\" \/>\u00a0Fix: Unplug chargers when they are not in use, or connect multiple devices to a power strip with an on off switch so everything can be shut down at once.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>It Can Overheat and Damage the Charger<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Even while idle, a charger\u2019s internal components such as capacitors and transformers continue to generate heat. When this heat exposure continues day after day, it gradually weakens the materials inside the charger. Plastic becomes brittle or cracked, wiring degrades, and the overall lifespan of the charger is shortened.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/1f525.svg\" alt=\"\ud83d\udd25\" \/>\u00a0In worst case scenarios, excessive heat can melt insulation, expose internal wires, or produce sparks, especially in low quality or already damaged chargers.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/26a0.svg\" alt=\"\u26a0\ufe0f\" \/>\u00a0Warning signs include warmth when nothing is charging, discoloration, buzzing or humming sounds, and a burnt or chemical smell.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"emoji\" role=\"img\" draggable=\"false\" src=\"https:\/\/s.w.org\/images\/core\/emoji\/17.0.2\/svg\/2705.svg\" alt=\"\u2705\" \/>\u00a0Fix: After charging, allow the unit to cool completely and then unplug it. Giving chargers regular rest significantly extends their life and lowers risk.<\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>It Increases Fire Risk<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>While fires caused by chargers are not extremely common, they do occur every year. In 2022, the Consumer Product Safety Commission reported hundreds of fires linked to plugged in phone chargers.
