Usage Monitor and Power Outlet Analyzer for Saving Energy (EU)

Usage Monitor and Power Outlet Analyzer for Saving Energy (EU)

This great energy monitor and analyzer (also called an Ammeter) allows you to save money by understanding how much energy your electrical devices use and in most cases, waste...

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 to you in a variety of user selected formats. 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? What about energy use when you're using a fan at high speed versus low speed? Is your TV using energy even when it is turned off? This EU version works with voltages from 160-280 and two-prong sockets common in Europe. So if you are living in the heart of Europe, you owe it to yourself to buy some for your home or business to help save yourself some dough and save the environment at the same time.

Product Notes

• Electrical appliances and devices plugged directly into a wall socket and which are normally considered turned off are actually in standby mode. That is, they still draw electricity. Now you can measure how much those devices you thought were "OFF" are really costing you.
• Power usage alarm function for voltage fluctuations. Great in trouble-shooting problems with electrical supply and seeing if your larger appliances like air-conditioners and refrigerators are running properly.
• Can be also be used to view the power factor (xxx %)

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?
  If you live in an area or country that frequently has power shortages and you are in the market for a power generator, then the 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 :-)
• I still want to know more, what else can you tell me?
  This item is also called a "Multifunctional Ammeter" in the trade. Used by techs to do these tasks; view the true socket voltage of your power supply, monitor real-time running power, see real-time current, view electricity consumption, calculate electricity cost, and more... At the same time, it can be used as a tool for gathering data to analyze any electrical appliance's real-time running power and will give out an alarm automatically once abnormal operation occurs
