Kill-A-Watt at my local library! - graylocks - 08-13-2009

i heard a PSA a few days ago that the Georgia equivalent of the EPA has given the library system Kill-A-Watt for people to check out and measure their home electricity use.

yippie! i'm going to pick one up this afternoon. what a grand idea!

Cool- like as a loaner ?

Mine is hooked up at my desk at work. We're going through an energy savings bit, including audits and writing up 'energy waster' tickets.

LCD 19" monitor - $0.0122 per day
Laptop docking station and charger brick - $0.014 per day
Hot pot for making morning tea - $0.16 per usage

When it goes home I'm gonna hook it up to the big screen TV to prove some points to the kiddies.
