I'd be intrigued to know how many of us really kill all the power
consumption in our houses when we go out.  I suspect that the fraction
of a watt consumed by a quiet SB would be dwarfed by

- fridge
- freezer

and would be comparable to 

- clocks built in to microwave, cooker, etc
- burglar alarm
- boiler/heating controller
- router / modem
- assorted battery chargers which are plugged in but not being used

and probably has a higher environmental footprint than battery operated
devices like wall or alarm clocks.
