    don't leave your TV on standby, always turn it off


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,406 ✭✭✭billbond4


    keep doors closed and dont heat rooms you dont use

    Never use the tumble dryer, it's seriously heavy on electricity!

    eat loads of banana's, high in potassium which is great for energy consumption


  • Registered Users Posts: 361 ✭✭litup


    When changing appliances go for ones with a good energy rating.

    To prevent a draft coming in the front door, hang a curtain & pull across in the evening times. Makes a huge difference.

    put a baloon up your chimney and make sure your windows are adjusted so that they close and seal properly , then turn down the thermostat and to compensate, pop the Three Degrees on your CD player and you will get that warm feeling still that's up there in the 70's !

    I'll give that app a go.

    Put consoles and TV on an extension lead (surge protected ideally, just in case) and plug that lead into the wall socket. Plug the sky+ box on its own into the other wall socket. When not using TV/Consoles, turn off the extension lead socket at the wall and leave the Sky+ one on to record any scheduled TV from your planner.

    One device on standby is better than 2-5!

    Due to the current economic climate the "Light at the end of the tunnel" has been switched off.

    I'm gonna need a Sony Ericsson Xperia X8 to ring someone to come and get me ;) lol

    when leaving your desk at work turn off your monitor

    Put your pet cat on a lead to save electricity at night by turning off the lights and use its night sight to lead you around. To make life easier, get used to using the litter tray yourself also.

    How many members of U2 does it take to change a lightbulb?

    Just Bono. He holds up the lightbulb and the world revolves around him

    Hang out your clothes instead of using a dryer. :)


  • Registered Users Posts: 76 ✭✭Marioda


    Fold dry clothes straight off the line, most dont need to be ironed then


  • Registered Users Posts: 15,530 ✭✭✭✭vectra


    Ban washing machines and Tumble dryers :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 936 ✭✭✭bassey


    If ya keep forgetting to turn off the immersion after ya use it install a timer on it!


  • Registered Users Posts: 964 ✭✭✭mistress_gi


    If you get an extension with a switch you can switch your tv off instead of leaving in standby!

    This is one of the best ads ever, it always made me feel warm growing up!



    Also, we'd get a dig if we left the immersion on...

    Fit a lagging jacket to your hot water tank.


  • Registered Users Posts: 100 ✭✭coolclogher


    Use hotwater bottles instead of electric blankets


  • Registered Users Posts: 38 Capt_cack


    Always place a full load in the washing machine.

    Q: How many cops does it take to screw in a light bulb?
    A: None. It turns itself in.


    Jayyyyysis dont leave the immersion on :eek:


  • Registered Users Posts: 31 AJJ2010


    Use your phone/laptop etc as long as possible before recharging. Constantly charging a battery when it isnt empty isn't good for it. Apparently.
