I know what you’re thinking: how hard can it truly be to remove a charger from the wall when your mobile phone is done charging? And in all honesty the only answer is not at all hard.
Even so, I’ve lost count of the times my partner has tried to remind me to remove my charger from an outlet. Up until recently, I didn’t really think about it all that much (obviously… therein lies my problem). After all, what harm could it do to have the charger sitting in the outlet waiting to be used? None, right?
In actual fact that might not be technically true. This I was made aware of when I happened to stumble upon a social media post outlining the potential pitfalls of leaving chargers plugged into an outlet when they’re not actually charging anything.
