Do you waste electricity if you leave your phone charger plugged in?
No. Electrical appliances, when plugged in, create a "circuit." That means that there's an entry and an exit with a powered device somewhere inline. That's why there are two prongs on a plug. On the power adapter for your cell phone the circuit isn't complete unless it's plugged into the phone, so no power will flow through it. ______________ Not entirely true. Notice that the power pack, even with no device plugged in, remains warm to the touch; that's positive evidence that the device continues to draw power. However, the drain is minimal.
