Common sense is always the best solution. Turn ---- off when your not using it. |

Harbor freight sells these too so unless I can get one from there for $1.99 I don't forsee owning one. |

G2, that's your call. I bet you'd save at least $20 a year if you used this thing so the device pays for itself in a year. That's a TERRIBLE investment. |
Re: Best $20 I've ever spent.

Re: Best $20 I've ever spent.
ive used a clamp on ammeter around the house, just clip it around cords etc, some devices in "sleep mode" draw a significant amount of power. Standard light bulbs are a big waste also, ive been using CFL's around the house and i think its a big savings vs regular bulbs. In one room alone i went from 4x60w bulbs=240w to 4x13w bulbs=52w, thats less than 1 of the original bulbs with the same light output after a min or so, the cfl's tend to look dimmer until they are running for a few min. they cost a couple bucks each but i feel the power savings and life expectancy of the bulb are much better than using standard bulbs.

Re: Best $20 I've ever spent.
CFL's are great. Not only do they use more energy, but they last a lot longer. CFL's cost about 5x the price of regular bulbs but last about 10x as long and use about 1/3 the power. Break even point is in the near future for sure.
People don't realize how much power they use. You guys think it's common sense, but there is nothing common about sense. I bet I could walk into your house with my limited knowledge and a couple of these Kill A Watt devices and come up with a number of ways to cut your electric bills down significantly without an inconvenience, limited investment, and short time return on your investment. If you aren't interested in saving money on your electric bill, I'm glad you have so much extra money to throw around. In my world, save $50 a month on my electric bill and it pays for my car insurance. Stuff like that matters to me and if I have to spend $200 to save $600, that's fine with me. |
Re: Best $20 I've ever spent.
ive been using a programmable thermostat and that saves gas and electric. i got a pack of 5 or 6 cfls for less than $10 last time i went to lowes, the 13w energy star ones = 60w standard bulb, well, maybe slightly less but nothing to worry about, they are pretty cheap, save you some cash, even if its a few bucks a month. Some i saw were like $20 each :o I think the most viscious power using things at my house is most def the pool filter pump (thing is older than old, getting replaced next year) and the AC, but since i rarely use it its not that bad. Other than that the cheap ass washer i have takes quite a bit of juice, as does the fridge.
