I did do a lot of my other appliances and in some cases I was quite surprised. For VCR TV etc we turn off the power bar when not using those, so no power loss while off ;-) We checked out our large chest freezer for a few months and found it was more efficient than we thought for a 20 year old freezer. The chest freezer runs us about $50 a year, keeping in mind we keep it 80% full or better. I hope to do another article about this on my new site at http://www.outofgreen.ca/ at some point when time allows. Hi George.

You should do every appliance that plugs into the wall...you might be surprised at the waste generated by ghost loads when power is left on to vcr, dvd etc. I did not see part one so maybe I should not comment, but check it all out, not just computers. regards George Why just your computers?
