2. Thing requires care and money. The thing is, if it is an electronic device that needs electricity. All the time. It should contain: to turn on and off, cleaning, lubricating, take care not to break. This is an additional precious time, precious money. If it's metal or wood or glass, it is necessary to wipe.
