So, one of the inescapable little quotidian chores of life is keeping
your various devices charged. I am curious: how many devices do people
need to keep charged on a daily (at at least, regular) basis? My number
crosses 10, which surprised me because I don't even think about it anymore.
What about you folks?
Let's see:
1-2. Cell phones
3. Laptop
4. Robot vacuum
5. Robot mop
6. Portable vacuum
7. Spice grinder
8-13. Six UPS units for computers (due to flaky power service)
Intermittant charging:
14. Alarm clock
15. Hair trimmer
Yeah, it's a lot, and that's not counting a half-dozen units my wife
charges.
Long term, my plan is to get a whole-house battery (and ultimately solar
panels) and get rid of the UPS units. The rest, alas, will likely remain.
I will credit the robotic mop and vacuum (and frankly the spice grinder
as well) to advancing age and reduced mobility that makes doing those
jobs manually prohibitively painful.
