Product details
Saving Energy Usage Monitor and Power Outlet Controller
Simply plug your computers, appliances, and gadgets into the energy usage monitor, and it works silently in the background keeping track of your energy consumption and displaying that information on its large LCD screen.
Get useful data on accumulated power consumption, average power used, or even hourly, daily, and monthly power expenditure. Based on this information you can analyze which appliances in your home cost more than they're worth to keep as well as forecast future energy expenses. Take your computer for example. How much does it cost to leave the computer on all the time? Is it cheaper to keep your old refrigerator or buy a new energy saving one? How much energy does drying your clothes cost? What about energy use when you're using a fan at high speed versus low speed?
This energy saving controller answers all your energy savings questions and does even more. It also serves as a timer to power off devices at a certain time and can even be programmed for auto shut-off when a certain watt amount is reached. Yes, you can specify that it powers off after a device has consumed a certain amount of power! How's that for managing energy savings?!

Frequently Asked Questions
- Can I use this to see how much energy my window air conditioner or refrigerator is using?
Of course! Just keep in mind that devices like these do not have a consistent energy usage pattern. There are many usage spikes through the course of a day. You will need to keep the unit plugged in for one whole week to see the true average daily usage for these types of household appliances.
- Are there any other cool things I can do when I am in the usage monitor mode?
Given that our country suffers from frequent power shortages, if you are in the market for a power generator/back-up system, then this unit will help you determine your homes peak power consumption so you can properly determine the size of backup power generator you will need. This really is a product that keeps on giving :-)
