Diary of a Techie

Hey guys, if you also have the starhub digital DVR, test this out. Turn off the unit by pressing the power off button on your set. But keep the power cord plug into the power outlet.

After a few minutes, go and touch your unit. You will notice that the unit is still warm. This means that the unit is still consuming power, despite the fact that the unit has been shut down.

If we consider that there are about a half million units of these on the Island, think about the power savings we can generate by requesting StarHub to do something about this?
