I am one of those kind (and I know there are many of this kind) who just plug their mobiles to their chargers for the full night and unplug it only next morning. But have you ever thought, how much power does it waste.
Listen, what NOKIA says...
Mobile phones sounding a beep and displaying an alert -- "Battery is full, please unplug the charger" -- could save enough electricity to power 85,000 homes annually.
And that's why they are developing technology so that your mobile phone could soon be prompting you to save energy by unplugging the phone's charger when the battery is full., reports Reuters.
The phone maker has previously said it had agreed with other mobile industry companies on measures to reduce energy consumption and reduce pollution in the sector as part of a project in partnership with the European Commission.
The unplug alerts are likely to first appear on its 1200, 1208 and 1650 mobile phone models.
