Kill A Watt - Measure Your Wattage

By Crazy Eyes Keiter - GreenandMore.com Merchandising Team

Do you ever look at your ten year old refrigerator and wonder how much energy that it’s sucking up? Well, I used to wonder about that and the freezer in my basement not to mention all of my stereo components in the living room. Fortunately, now you can find out why you’re paying such ridiculous electric bills every month with a neat little device called the Kill A Watt.

Yepp, hokey name as it doesn’t actually kill anything but it will help you make some decisions on how to spend those hard earned bucks by measuring the wattage usage of almost any appliance in your home. You simply unplug the appliance; plug the Kill A Watt into the wall jack and the plug the appliance into the Kill A Watt. Presto, you’ll know how much juice it is using. No magic involved but you will have a platform to stand on when deciding if you want to buy that fancy new refrigerator or keep giving the extra dough to your local purveyor of electricity.
