Turning off these vampire devices could save thousands on your energy bills

As the cost of living crisis continues to soar to astronomical heights, many households have been looking for ways that they can cut back on their energy usage to save on their bills. And with October's price cap increasing to £2,500 from April's £1,971, it is understandable why cutting back on your energy usage has become important more than ever.

One way to cut back on your energy bills is to turn off the so-called "vampire devices", the electronics that drain power and still use energy when they are on stand-by and turned on at the wall.

Natalia Lachim from Discount Code has revealed which of these energy-draining devices are actually adding onto your energy bills and how much they could save if you were to switch them off completely. Properly turning off these devices could actually see you save thousands of pounds each year on your annual energy bills, reports WalesOnline.
