Anyone playing with their Kill - A - Watt meter
How about doing a test on how much your computer is drawing.
I am guessing the hottest setup uses less than 200Watts most of the time. |

Hanging-out ONE load of laundry on a clothes line, rather than use a dryer, will save more energy than is used by the idle running of a computer in its lifetime. Actually some might think that people who suggest leaving things on is OK for whatever reason can't see the forest for the trees. What if someone removed the clothes and turned off the computer? Instead of just making up assertions like that think about what you wrote. Can I suggest that either this hypothetical dryer would be using monumental amounts of energy or the computer consumes the power of a single LED for your assertion to be accurate. Gather some empirical data and try to verify your assertion. Data I have collected shows that a minimally used typical computer uses the same amount of energy in 15 hours as used by an electric dryer used to dry a typical load. |

Gas tank water heaters loose most of their heat up the chimney.- Hide quoted text - \ true thats the case with ALL GAS HEATERS, although its not most heat, since none are less than 50% efficent. but combustion by products must go somewhere. sure electric heaters are more efficent, and lack exhaust waste but the electric costs so much more, gas is more cost effective |

Less than half of what you are claiming, in other words. You clearly have no interest in changing your energy wasting habits, but please don't try to stop those of us who wish to make the world a better place. |
