Shocking: How much does it cost to charge your phone?
It is interesting to note how much we are paying to charge our phones, considering we charge their devices several times a day...
How many times do you charge your smartphone in a day?
While some might say once a day, others will admit they charge their phones several times a day. This might be because of their usage or because they are only half-charging their devices.
Therefore, the battery life doesn't last, which means their devices charge more than once a day.
When you're the one responsible for the electricity bill in your house, you might be irritated by the number of times a teenager, for instance, charges their phone, but we have some good news.
Renewable energy specialist, Wes Reddy, says charging your phone does not break the bank.
He recently shared some valuable information about charging phones. He made everyone sigh with relief when he said that if you charge your phone once daily for about an hour, you spend approximately R3.60 monthly.
