Energy Efficient Cordless Phones.

Cordless Telephones are no different from other household electrical appliances in that they need power to operate. A DECT handset needs to make frequent communication with the base station to allow immedaite connection in the instance of incoming or outgoing call..
This frequent communication, naturally, requires power (the reason that a cordless phone’s standby time is inversely proportional to its distance from the base station); and as we know all power consumption is both bad for your pocket and the environment. Electricity costs money and incurs pollution in the form of carbon emissions.
Because of this BT have recently put a lot of thought into how they can reduce the environmental impact of cordless phones. They have managed to reduce power consumption by up to a half.
DECT Phones do not take a large amount of power or money to run, but if in every area we try to make savings we will find that there is a huge beneficial effect to both planet and pocket.
The new range of greener bt phones includes the latest BT Freestyle Range and the highly energy efficient BT Graphite 1500 shown above.
Homephoneonlie will be shortly putting togeather a full list of both the BT range of energy efficient cordless phones and the new eco phones from Philips. So watch out !
