Kill-A-Watt Did We Learn?

Are the things in your home secretly draining electricity while you sleep—or is “unplug everything” just another energy myth? In this episode of, we break out an energy watt meter and put common and unexpected household items to the test. From coffee makers and air purifiers to nightlights, fridges, space heaters, and even composters, we measure what’s really pulling power, what qualifies as so-called “vampire energy,” and what’s honestly not worth stressing over.

Using two very different approaches—instant wattage readings and multi-day cost tracking—we compare results, crunch the numbers, and share a few surprises along the way. The takeaway? Some of the advice we grew up with doesn’t quite hold up, and understanding your energy use might be more reassuring than alarming. If you’ve ever wondered what’s actually impacting your electric bill (and what isn’t), this episode is your friendly, data-backed reality check.
