Just realized our family's nightly routine is killing our energy savings
I work night shifts as a nurse, and when I get home early in the morning, I often find lights left on and gadgets plugged in. My kids leave their gaming consoles on standby, and my spouse forgets to turn off the space heater in the living room. We put in solar panels last year, but our electricity bill is still high. I think our habits are messing up all the good from the tech. I'm looking into smart plugs or energy monitors to help us cut waste. Has anyone dealt with similar family stuff and found tech that works? I need something easy that everyone can use without trouble. Any advice would be really helpful.
