A Green Product For A Better World Today

 

- Brand New In Box -

240V Mains Power Meter


Easy to use / Monitor power consumption / Calculate running costs / Save $$$ / Help the environment.

 


This intelligent power meter simply plugs into a normal 240V household power point and turns it into a real-time power monitoring outlet.

You can enter the local price of your electricity and the meter will tell you exactly how much the appliance is costing to run.

In addition, the power meter tracks the power used and can display the instantaneous voltage or current being drawn as well as the peak levels that have been drawn.

The meter has backup batteries so it will not lose the stored data during a blackout or moving from point to point.

Simple to install and a valuable tool for monitoring you power consumption.

 

 

GREEN and MONEY SAVING USES:

 

If you are interested in monitoring economy then you can use this unit to simply monitor a units Watt consumption.

The Watt screen shows the power being drawn and is how your electricity bill is calculated.

 

You can plug your appliances into this unit and put them into standby and see the watts being drawn. This would allow you to find power wasters in the house.

 

You may see the following results:

Volts 245

Hz 50

AMP 10

Watts 47

Max Watts 320

Total On Time 10min

Cost $0.01 

 

 

Then turn it on and see the Watts change up as it draws more power to run.

You can then enter the price you pay per Kw (or 1000 watts) from your electricity bill which may be $0.13 (Sydney Integral rate) and let it run for the week, at the end of the week it will show you how much that unit has cost this week.

 

A useful test is to use a power board to run your home entertainment unit (TV, Stereo, Video Recorder, Foxtel, DVD player, etc) and plug it into this meter then turn them all off but keep them plugged in which leaves them in standby mode and see how much power they still draw over night. You might be surprised!

 

We know that our normal light globes use 100 watts our down lights use 50 watts and our fluro tube lights use 35 watts but who knows what their TV, computer, stereo, dryer, washing machine, vacuum, kettle, toaster, pool pump and the second fridge use.

 

I know from my testing that it costs me 1 cent to cook my toast in the morning and 25 cents to use my dryer to dry a load of towels.

 

 

How can you save money?
