Chromecast Ultra also uses 20W in standby.

I was going through the all devices and found that a TV which is most of the time off, was using that much power. Now I keep it unplugged.

The chromecast ultra comes with a 5w power supply (I know, I have one and just checked) so this cannot be true.

I don't know about you but I literally don't care about 5w, it's getting converted to heat anyway just a bit less efficiently than my gas boiler.
