Are you suggesting that saving a few hundred watts for a few minutes per
month is distinguishable from noise in the 2750 TWh EU electricity budget?


Most households have a vacuum - so you have to multiply your 'few

understand potential savings. And then multiply that figure by 27.

Mind, the 'few minutes' does suggest interesting priorities :-)
