figure out the balance between not unplugging and replugging things too much and not losing too much to trickle current

@packbat we're not so concerned about the trickle of phone chargers and stuff and more like. how much current does our assemblage of video game consoles draw when they're all in off/standby mode or something

@Felthry huh, I don't think we knew that! that's really interesting!
