I take that back, a lot of my electronics are either on standby/hibernate h:

 

i leave my computer and xbox (original) on all the time. everything else gets turned off.

 

:uhhok:

 

energy aside,i dont understand why people would leave them on.. thats shortenning the life isnt it?

 

jae's shit is on all the time!

 

sweet. i'm doing a project on the Wii, and this helps.

 

that's a huge reason why I turn off everything (PC, gaming consoles, DVR).

 

I think that's not true.

 

i'm sure it depends on the transformer, but it has been proven true. a lot of things use electricity even when not in use, especially transformers, apparently. haven't you ever noticed that some of them are warm even when nothing is plugged into them?


depends. if you're flipping it on and off constantly, that's going to do a lot more harm than leaving it on all the time.

since my shit is rarely on every night, i just shut everything off when i'm done.

 

Why would anyone leave the console on all day (*cough* Jae), this is a stupid study, lol.
