That question is almost to funny for words. Give out clappers. come on, why should the government waste money on a person who is that lazy? It would be funny though, walking up your street or some neighborhood, watching all the houses with the lights flashing off and on. Have a good day.

with the exception of fluorescent lighting, it will almost always be a saving shutting things off (not on standby). an argument can be made for PCs in hibernation or standby where it may take a shorter time to resume work than reload everything. some machinery may take a time to warm up to working temperature and thus cost more to keep shutting down and restarting. An example is oil refineries where it takes 3 days to safely shut down all and another 3 days to get back to normal use. it will be more efficient and cheaper to run but at a min rate all the time. no doubt folks can supply many more examples of this sort of thing but the real answer is = overall shutting down GENERALLY will save energy.

Good idea!!
My brother is the worst for leaving the lights on, he will go to the toilet in the DAY and turn on the light and leave it........ **** hey??
No clapping light could save him, he's a lost cause.

great idea.. however not well thought out..
if they are too lazy to flip a switch off .....
then what makes you think that they will take the time to clap twice sharply?
LOL... that was a good one though... have to laugh because it's usually the men who don't turn things off........ u know i'm talking to you..........
