I am thinking of buying some timers that will switch them on automatically when I need them.
eg. Timer 1 will switch on the modem at 7.50am and then timer 2 will turn on the router at 7.55am so everything is on when it needs to be and switch off automatically when I need them to.
We have some timers that are used on certain things like that but I'm not convinced yet about buying timers specifically for that as an energy saving measure. How much energy was used to produce the timer in the first place?
