CBS News Report Shows Power-Save 1200 Reduces Electric Bills

An unsolicited test of the Power-Save 1200 by Atlanta's local CBS News affiliate revealed a significant reduction in kilowatt hours.

Greg and Michelle Mark of metro-Atlanta agreed to install a Power-Save 1200 on their home as part of a "CBS News 46 Investigates" report. After several months of tracking, the Mark's electric bill shows a decrease of 240 kilowatt hours used per month!

Although these results are impressive, we fully expect to see the savings increase dramatically during the hot Georgia spring and summer months when air conditioners and other appliances are working overtime.

We had absolutely no knowledge of this investigative report prior to its broadcast so thanks to CBS News 46 and the Mark family for putting Power-Save to the test. We look forward to helping more families across the southeast and beyond save significantly on their monthly electric bills!

Improving Power Factor Saves Money

Power Factor is used to describe the energy efficiency of the power being used in your home or business. For example, a .59 Power Factor means that only 59% of the electricity that is being drawn thru your meter is being used effectively, the other 41% is being wasted! Therefore, increasing power factor is the key to saving money on electricity. As the video product demonstration on the web site proves, Power-Save energy savers improve power factor and save you money as a result.

The following is an important statement made by Baltimore Gas & Electric on their website concerning Power Factor:

”Power factor measures how effectively your operation uses electrical power. Poor power factor means your facility is using and paying for more electricity than it needs while doing the same amount of work. The net result is higher demand charges on your electric bill and overtaxing your internal wires and transformers.”
