What is no-load power waste?
No-load power waste is a subset of standby power waste. No-load power is the energy used by a device when it is disconnected from it’s load and performing no function. For example, a mobile phone charger that is plugged into the wall, but not connected to the phone will still consume power. Linear chargers can consume between 0.8 W to 2 W even when they are disconnected from the phone.
