"A good tool to check the efficiency of an old appliance and compare it to a new one, in as to how much money you'd save on your electric bill, buying a new appliance"

load tester,
October 30, 2007
By BryanD
from Neb
|
"I bought this to be able to test apliances to find out if the problem is the circuit is overloaded or the circuit breaker is bad. So far no tripped circuits so I have just been testing out of curiosity. It seems to work well although I don't have anything to check it against."

By DrCrypto
from Mineral, VA

"If you want to go Green and cut down on your carbon footprint, this item will tell you exactly how much wattage each appliance is using. It is a must have.
If you have a portable generator and want to do a wattage check so you will know that you do not want to overload your generator, this is a must have."

I like it!,
September 28, 2007
By MrTommy
from Carson City, NV
|
"We do a lot of dry and boondock RV'ing. I've got dual 6 volt batteries charged by three solar panels on the roof. This runs a 3500 watt inverter which in turn runs everything in the trailer except the A/C. I bought this tester to measure the power needs of everything that needs the 110/120 power. This way I'm not overtaxing the inverter, or killing my batteries. The load tester does the trick. It's quick and easy and so far, I've had no problems with it (about four months).
Now I've started checking everything in the house as well. I hate to say it, but it's just plain fun to see how much power EVERYTHING uses."

Load Tester,
September 21, 2007
By Lena
from Pequot Lakes, MN
|
"I found this product to be definately worth the money. Works great to find out what wattage and amps I will need for a generator. I have had this product for over three months now and I have not experienced any problems with it, and I have tested almost everything in my house. My husband loves to use it to test his computers to gauge what power supply he will need. That in itself has saved us lots of time and money."
