Cordless Phones & Answering Machines

Cordless phones use built-in rechargeable batteries that draw power even when you’re not using them. ENERGY STAR® qualified cordless phones, answering machines and combination units use about a third less energy than conventional units and many offer energy performance features such as switch-mode power supplies and “smart” chargers.
