"Vampire device" = thiết bị ma cà rồng -> nghĩa là thiết bị điện tử ngốn nhiều điện, kể cả khi tắt hay để chế độ chờ.

Ví dụ
So-called (trứ danh) vampire devices are electrical appliances (thiết bị) that are left on standby when not in use, and which continue to consume power - and add to household energy bills - as a result.

According to research from British Gas, UK households (hộ gia đình) could reduce their annual energy bill an average of £147 simply by turning off so-called vampire devices. Leaving these devices on standby is costing UK consumers an estimated £2.2 billion a year.

Our sister website Dublin Live has reported on some of the ways to avoid vampire devices quietly (thầm lặng) affecting your bills. Tips include using extension leads and unplugging chargers when not in use.

The VAMPIRE device digitally captures latent  (âm ỉ) fingerprint images directly from various surfaces using no lifting tape, which minimizes potential damage to fingerprints and results in better quality forensic evidence.
