A must if you want to save on your electric bill

We Love this PowerStrip.  For someone who cares about how much electricity is being used in the house, this is a must.  It is very simple and easily labeled on the package to what electronics go where.  I would recommend for someone who wants to decrease their power bill.  Leaving your TV and cable box on all the time can pull power even when they are off.  This will help eliminate some of that.  If you need to leave something connected all the time for instance your router you can plug it in that outlet that doesn't shut off.

I bought 4 so far for each of our rooms and they work amazing.  So far so good on them not breaking down. I do have to mention that one of them the wire gets hot but other than that it works fine.  My electricity bill is 80 dollars more using these heaters.  I'm estimating on this.  Which is real good compared to the alternative.  I'm real happy.

Anyone who cares about their power bill should have one of these. I have used this to analyze appliances and determine which ones really need to be replaced first. It is accurate (check it using a LED lightbulb). I am on my second unit cause the first got zapped in an electrical storm during an extended reading of a freezer(I believe). It didn't stop working, it just stopped reading accurately. I measured a LED lightbulb and it was measuring low by a few watts.

I bought this water heater timer to help save money on our monthly electric bill. I had several friends and an Energy Consumption Expert from the Electric company all recommend adding one of these. This one works great. Was easy to install too. We can now have our electric tank water heater turn on and off when we want. The idea is to save money by not having your water heater on 24/7. You can set up any schedule you want depending on your needs. We are an empty nester couple with an 80 gallon water heater. We turn it on twice a day. 2 hours in the mid morning and 3 hours at night. Works great. Never run out of hot water. I have no idea how much money we are saving per month. I don't imagine it is a tremendous amount, but over time it should add up. I recommend this one over the older analog models with the old style round wheel timers that was available at our local hardware stores.

It seems that everyone is trying to cut their power usage, and I'm no exception. This little device is about as simple to operate as it gets. Just plug it in and let it work for a day or so. It gives you all the electrical data you can use and with a spreadsheet and your utility bill, you can quickly see which appliance is hogging the meter.

Be warned, however, that the Kill A Watt will not work on your 220 volt appliances like water heaters and dryers. For that you will have to read the specs and do some crystal ball work.

My only criticism of the device is that when you unplug it all the collected data is lost. A battery backup for the data would be nice.

I bought six of these. I have installed one on our kitchen island, one on the counter and one in two bedrooms. The others are for our lake house. You need to install where you don't need multiple 115V. One thing I like is when the cord is disconnected at the device, the light goes out on the charging port so I guess it is a power saver as well. I don't like keeping the transformers plugged in due to the heat and these eliminate this.

If you want something to help you save a few buck on your energy bill while also prolonging the life of Equipment, this is the tool for you.

I had an idea what this SmartStrip could do but i really wanted to see it for myself. This guy is as simple as it sounds and just as convient.

You have 1 outlet that you plug your switching device in. The switching device is the device that when you turn on or off turns everything else on or off. You also have 2 Always ON outlets (for DVR boxes or Broadband Modem, etc). And 4 "Controlled" outlets, 1 of which is an extra wide one. Now, the 1 outlet for the switching device is an Always ON outlet.

There is a little knob on the side for helping you tweek the switching setting that power off everything else when you put the main device into a low power state or off. Because some things draw power even when turned off so you may need to tweek it.

I bought this to try it out at work. If you want something to definitely help at home or at the office, this is perfect. At work, i had my Laptop at the switching port. I plugged the Monitor, the Speakers, the Desk Lamp, my cell chargers, any and all accessories into the controlled ports. I tweeked the knob on the side so that when I put my laptop into Standby, that it will also shut off everything else as well. To tweek it, you must put the computer into Standby mode and adjusted the knob until all the devices turn off.

This is great because the moment i shutdown the computer at night, it turns everything off and i don't have to forget about turning anything off. All that littles of electricity its saving is great.

You could easily use it at home. You can have it setup where your TV is the switch, your DVR is in the Always ON, your DVD, VCR, Game Consoles, Stereo, Home Theater, etc are all plugged into the Controlled Ports, So that the moment you turn the TV off, everything else turns off. No more nagging the kids to make sure they turned everything else, no need to round through remotes to make sure everything else is off.

The price is right as well, you are going to pay about the same price for something that also does about the same amount of Surge Protection, so why not get something that will save you in long running cost as well. It could pay for itself in the first year alone.

I didn't know that my computer equipment was draining off over 100 kwh of electricity on idle power per year.  It's not going to save a lot of money, but knowing that turning off this kind of idle power helps the environment makes me feel good.  BB Standby just comes in very handy.  All it needs is one click of a button.

We saved just over $40 on our electric bill the first month we decided to go with the drying rack and skip the drying machine.  It fits a whole load and Queen size sheets/blankets can lay over the top of it without dragging on the floor.  Folds up flat in a cinche.  I would but this over and over again.

The Bedfan is the best investment we ever made.  I know we will save money on our electric bill by not having to turn the a/c unit down so much at night.  I also suffer with hot flashes at night, but with the Bedfan going I can cool down much quicker than having to throw the covers off, then wake up later having to throw them back on.  The fan control cord is plenty long enough for us to keep it wrapped around our head bedrail, which makes it easy to adjust or control the speed of the fan.  It was super easy to install as well!

Works great and saves lots of money on the electric bill.  Easy to install.  New improved sensor wire seems to route through the gutter easier and is more flexible.  Have used these for years.  The last one lasted 10 years.

we were considering solar backup for a few important appliances since generators require gas and the price of gas and how briefly a generator runs is seriously impractical. Think of the recent storms ,power outages and long lines to get just a few gallons of gas that ran out in no time, not to mention the safety hazards of relying on gas and a generator.  But we needed to accurately calculate exactly  how much energy we needed. Well meaning contractors (and a few not so well meaning) wanted to sell us huge whole house systems that were very very expensive.  This handy little reader was fast and accurate and helped us make an informed decision on what we do and do not need. It saved us a lot  of money we don't have. This monitor proved to be literally worth it's weight in gold. A good tool to have on hand at a reasonable price.''

Even though we shouldn't throw batteries into the garbage, most people do. This is a great way to save money and the environment. With one investment, you will save money over time. I just plug in my controller and it seems to charge even while the Xbox One is off, unlike the PS3. Only downside is that I haven't really been told when my controller is low. Not sure if this is a coincidence that mine hasn't been that low, or another thing I don't like about the Xbox One.
