“Let the wireless electricity monitor give you real-time access to how much electricity your home is using”
Highlights
- Wireless device that calculates your home electricity usage, and displays the info in easy-to-understand formats: dollars & cents and kilowatt
- Specifies how much electricity your home or a single appliance is using moment-to-moment and in total
- Shows month-to-date bill and predicted monthly bill, helping you stick to your household energy budget
- It's proven that those who use the Power Monitor change their behavior, save energy, and reduce their electricity bills by up to 20%
- Easy to install weatherproof transmitter requires no wiring and works with almost all electricity meters*
How It Works
Black & Decker's Power Monitor consist of two components – the transmitter and handheld device (both wireless) – which were designed to be easily installed and used:
- Meter Sensor simply attaches to the outside of your electric utility meter; once it is fastened, it reads the amount of electricity you consume in real-time and transmits the info to the wireless handheld display unit. Please note the sensor:
- Simply wraps around the glass meter, and reads the meter as it spins and sends the info inside to the Display Unit
- Does not affect the meter, or a meter reader's ability to read the meter
- Works with most North American electromechanical and solid state/digital electric meters for which the optical sensor or rotating disk is not blocked, including smart meter technologies
- Digital Display resembles a small digital clock and with a range of up to 60 ft from the sensor unit, you can place it anywhere in the home; just program the utility company's electric rate (cost per kilowatt-hour or kWh) into the handheld unit for it to display (for the household or per appliance):
- Current Consumption: (updated every 30 seconds) in (1) dollar & cents ($/hr), (2) kilowatts (kW), and (3) graphically (fast or slow moving bars)
- Consumption Totals: cumulative total of electricity consumed since total was last reset or an estimate of your monthly usage in (1) $ (Cost View), and (2) kHw (Power View)
- Status: (1) time, (2) temperature, (3) signal quality (only if lost), (4) sleep mode (only if the units cannot talk to each other), and (5) battery levels (only if low)
NOTE: The Power Monitor is not intended for billing purposes. Data displayed is for informational purposes only. Due to when your meter is read by your utility and due to other utility charges, the “total” readings on your display will not exactly match what you see on your electricity bill. It is accurate within 5% of the actual amount.
