The Electricity Saving Thread

Iwan ko lang kung na post na ito dito.

Tipid tips.
Wag tatangalan ng yelo ang frezer ng ref. then make sure na laging may laman ang ref. Kasi pag walang makapitan ng lamig sa loob ng ref e pag bukas mo e labas yan lahat. Takbo nanaman ang ref mo. Kuryente nanaman yan.

Kindly clarify... Aling yelo wag tatanggalin, yung mga ice cubes or yung mga frost na nakakapit sa freezer (sa mga hind frost-free)?

As you may know short cut text messages are not allowed in this forum as well as barok sentence. With all due respect if you can't express clearly in Tagalog you may say it either Bisaya, Ilonggo, english or whatever dialects you're comfortable. besides your tipid tip does not make any sense at all. again, with all due respect. pls explain it to me your tipid tip like I'm a 5 yrs old child? pwede!

+101 here. di ko rin ma-gets ang ibig sabihin ni philsat. at saka pwede bang tumakbo nanaman ang ref mo? kahit ba sabihin nya na literal meaning yang sentence eh di pa rin mai-translate sa figuratively words/sentence noh

Baka suggest din ni philsat.....Bumili ng mga appliances direct sa planta, para makatipid, mas mura. Ha-ha!

Nakaka-aliw itong si philsat.

Masilip nga yung ref namin kung may laman. Alam ko puro tubig e. :D

haha. wait ako nga din.check ko lang ang laman ng ref namin. na intriga tuloy ako sa tipid tip ni philsat.

sa planta ba kamo bumili? kapag nakabili na sya sa planta, pwede nya rin i suggest na dun sa planta i plug in ang ref socket tapos bili ng extension cord hanggang umabot sa bahay nya. yan talaga ang masasabing tipid tip...

I also don't get the idea why would this unplugging a call of concern on electricity savings. It's only the small electronic sensor which is working such that when turned ON via remote, it adapt to the command. If that sensor consume any , it's only by cents, not a major consumption. On electric fans naman, though mechanical ang switch the circuit is not close so there won't be any electricity running thereby no consumption.

Philsat may be annoying with his penchant for using too much letter "i"s but his tip about freezers is actually valid.

Keep your fridge and freezer filled - bottles of tap water can fill empty space in the fridge, and you can fill empty space in the freezer with screwed up newspaper. Otherwise you're just cooling down air and making your fridge work much harder.

partly agree here, the current pass through in electric fan motor is totally cut off once the manual switch off button is pressed. But there are still some appliances consume a bit electricity in stand by mode. example stereo amplifiers etc.. or some appliances that produce heat at the back or bottom of the unit itself in stand by mode, it does a bit only

The advice is to unplug or turn off devices that are in standby mode. Newer devices consume less power now but before they used to consume more than 1W.

Standby power loss is quite significant.

Now this I understand

And I thought a full refrigerator consumed more electricity.
