Please note: the Savasocket Mobile can only be used on chargers that use 1 amp or less.
Most mobile devices take an hour or so to charge, but it's easy to forget and leave them on overnight, or even permanently plugged in.
Chargers use around 2W when charging, even when the battery is full, and 1.5W when switched on, but not connected to anything.
The Savasocket mobile means you can plug in your charger and forget about it, without wasting any energy.
It works with
phones and a whole range of portable gadgets, and helps to extend battery life.
Energy savingThe Savasocket mobile saves you 90% of the energy you would waste leaving your mobile phone charger switched on.
Money savingIn the UK, we pay to £1.3 billion a year, just as a result of leaving appliances on standby, including chargers making up 9-16% of our household usage. Environment Minister Lord Taylor of Holbeach said:
"We can all do simple things like switching off our televisions, computers and other home electronics and save up to £85 on electricity bill each year.".

Why is this Eco?Of course, the ultimate standby saver is your index finger, which you can use to switch off a charger once the battery is topped up. However, it's easy to forget to do this if you have a busy lifestyle, and chargers left plugged in once their work is done are wasting energy and money. If the charger is warm to the touch, it is still drawing as much as 75% of the power it takes to charge a battery.
