‘Throttle Back’ for holidays

Personnel at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base are encouraged to unplug or turn off devices that won’t be used over the holiday or connect them to a device that shuts off power automatically. Team Wright-Patt’s cooperation has the potential to save thousands of dollars and though simple, is a particularly meaningful way to help during this time of budget concerns. Even devices that have a power-save function should be unplugged, as they may be older and not save as much as newer functions would. Equipment that may be unplugged includes coffee pots, message monitors, printers/scanners, authorized space heaters, radios, desk lamps/task lighting, shredders, fax machines, microwave ovens, monitors/speakers and projectors. Computers, processors, laptops, servers and network switches are among items that should remain plugged in. Participating in the “Throttle Back” initiative will return valuable savings to critical base missions, officials say.
