What is a Phantom Load?

 Phantom loads are the electric power consumed by appliances while they are switched off or on stand-by mode

How Can I help Slay the Phantom?

Kill the switch and unplug used appliances, especially if you are going out of town for a few days.  This includes cell-phone chargers, IPod & mp3 chargers, computer/laptops, microwaves, TVs, stereos, hair dryers, curling irons, and fans.

Who will kill the most Phantoms?

Wildwood and DeGraff Hall residents will be competing from October 1st-October 31st to see which residence hall can conserve the most energy.
