I once did a calculation:

PC's and all the related devices do as much as 80 - 90 pct. of the total energy spending (ok without air conditioning, that would move the number I guess)

Lightning doesn't do much - maximum 3 - 5 pct., all the other devices don't do much either, including permanently running devices such as fridge, they all account to cca 10 - 15 pct. of the consumption.

For example if I compared the costs for "modern" savy lightbulbs that cost a fortune with their durability, the older Edison style lightbulbs were more economic.
