"Power Saver" ---- Does this device really save on electricity use?

Power saver ^

[mikelets456]

I say give them a billion dollars and we’ll find out...

[dennisw]

I know someone who just spent $500 for four of them. Is this for real??

I say it is nonsense...maybe you save 5-10% of electricity use

[Greysard]

It is indeed nonsense, and a scam.

[San Jacinto]

I'm normally skeptical, but since it uses advanced intelligent digital technology, I'm sure it's okay.

*Smooths out electical flow

Oh, so THAT's how it works. LMAO!

[dennisw]

So far no thumbs up from freepers. I can’t believe she shelled out $500 in this economy for this crap

Each power saver is tested at the factory and tested by us before it leaves for its new home. Occasionally, the green light or lights are not working, but the unit is working well. These LEDS are there for appearance, but do not have any effect on the performance of the unit.

LOL! What a scam.

“1 pair for only $249.99 (Everyday Regular Price”

BUT WAIT!!!

IF YOU ORDER NOW.....

If they did work, the power company would hand them out liek they do with CFL’s and shower flow restrictors. What kind of electrical device are they? How do they supposedly work? I’ve studied electrical stuff to a degree, and have no idea what they are or how they work, or how it’s even possible that they could work.

Also, IIRC, i saw them for sale for about $25 each in 2002 or 2003. May not be the same thing, but the scam remains the same.

One of the most beautiful things about the internet is that one no longer has to attend Engineering School to learn the Laws of Thermodynamics.

“*Smooths out electical flow”

Yeah, that’s the ticket. Get rid of all that AC sine wave crap; it’s so wasteful.

[freedomlover]

LOL

[freedomlover]

I bet they work best when hooked up to those high efficiency electric space heaters.

[library user]

LEDs that you can peel right off if you want!

[a fool in paradise]

Save 25% to 40% on your electric bill.

If I get 4 of these, can I eliminate by electric costs altogether?

[a fool in paradise]

Will it untangle my internet tubes? Quick, what’s the website number?

[texmexis best]

This appears to be a surge protector.

My take too. Electric companies love to go green these days and would be handing these out like peanuts if they worked
