Thank you, electrician.

In today’s digital age, our dependence on electronic devices is greater than ever. Laptops, in particular, have become indispensable tools for work, education and entertainment. However, this increased use is accompanied by the responsibility for managing our devices judiciously. An often overlooked aspect is the habit of letting laptop chargers plugged in even when the device is not connected. Although it may seem trivial, this practice can have several negative consequences. My electrician recently stressed the importance of disconnecting shippers when they are not used, and I quickly realized the benefits of adopting this simple habit.

Allowing your laptop charger to plug in when not in use is several risks. First of all, this can lead to unnecessary energy consumption, which contributes to increased electricity bills and environmental impact. In addition, chargers can generate heat even when they do not actively charge a device, which may pose a risk to safety over time. Understanding these risks is essential for informed decisions about how we manage our electronic devices.
