Since you can't always count on having a bunch of power to draw from, most magic uses precision to achieve it's results, instead of brute force.
Let's say he uses magic to turn off the lights, he can do it in a few ways.
*starts counting out on fingers.*
One. He can compress the air above or below the switch and release it in a focused burst to move it.
Two. Mess with the gravitational effects on the switch to make it move.
Three. Bend space to make it closer.
And so on.
But all of these require at lease a decent amount of power to achieve, and oftentimes magic users are targeted right after they're done with giant spells. So if he get's attacked after a huge experiment the next day, he's not likely to have much energy left, and the energy that he used to turn off that light could deflect a bullet or create a distraction, giving him time to live and recover.
It's the reason why most of the careless magic users are dead, because they aren't prepared for such situations, making them powerless and physically unable to protect themselves.


That's a really clever answer. It's just that, well, turning off a light takes basically no energy. A little bit of telekinesis to flip the switch and bam. You're scaling up a very small phenomenon too much.

You have a point, but not everyone has or is able to gain telekinesis.
And I probably was but i wanted to provide a decent answer.
The likely hood of him having an experiment the next day isn't that big, and there are probably easier ways to turn it off, but this is a what if situation, so providing the worst case scenario isn't outside the bounds.

It is however, in reply to another what-if situation. The best spell-caster in the world flipping a switch with magic. I'd agree for a worse spell-caster that they should be a bit more careful if small tasks take more energy than is worth it to perform with magic.

Umm... Yeah. It seems that my mountain home has lost the one thing that it needs to make it a mountain home.

Yeah. No caster should be flippant with their reserves--who knows when you'll need them? Ruby and I already implemented a ton of tips like that from our previous reincarnations with different failsafes.
