Kill-a-Watt MetersTM : Ready for Checkout in JuneOwing to a generous donation from one of our energy-conscious patrons, the library has purchased three Kill-a-Watt meters. Beginning Saturday June 20, you'll be able to borrow a meter and use the meter to determine how much power your home appliances or gizmos and gadgets consume.
For example, the meter may help you slay the energy "vampires" in your home (appliances and devices you leave plugged in when not in use) or figure out if one of your larger appliances is an energy hog-o-rilla that needs to be repaired, replaced, or used off-peak.
The meter features a very readable LCD display that counts consumption by the kilowatt-hour (KWH), same as your local utility does, and comes packaged with user-friendly instructions.
If you are interested in chipping away at wasted watts on your electric bill, borrow a Kill-a-Watt meter @ your library.
