I pretty much lost interest in mine within a day and, indeed, consigned it to the dusty IT cupboard under the stairs. I'm not sure they really contribute to more efficient energy usage – I imagine it's a mechanism of terror if you're struggling to pay your energy bills and of little arbitrary interest to everyone else. Sure, I could sit in the cold and dark, scratching out emails on a chalkboard. That might get the numbers down, I suppose.
I just went to check that's it's OK in there, and we're using 13p/hr for electricity and 0p/hr for gas at the moment. I guess that's two computers and assorted monitors, the fridge, and the multitude of devices with lights on top (wifi, speakers, security cameras, cats).
