Believe it or not...

My mom and I went to Ace Hardware just to look for some light bulbs. While being there, we went to every aisle of the huge store and found this energy saving device kit called Extreme Power Saver. According to the sales agent, it can save 20%-30% on every home's electric bill. Because of the "savings", my mom got interested and started to ask a lot of questions to the sales agent regarding the said product. We soon found out that it's an electrical device that helps reduce electrical consumption of inductive or motorized home equipment of appliances such as air conditioners, electric fans, water pumps, washing machines, etc. The agent also explained to us that the device recycles the partial electrical waste generated by the said inductive equipment. Amazing, huh? In the end, my mom purchased one unit for our house. Well, we gotta try and use it now because we need to know in a months time if our electric bill goes down.

hi nova, naku, that's the first question my mom asked the sales agent. It's legal naman daw. sabi approved ng DOST, parang invention kasi sya ng isang member nila na ginawang legal na ngayon. Siguro hindi naman nmagbebenta ang SM ng illegal products. Hehehehe.

Hi Jean, i'm doing a research regarding 'power saving devices'... and if they really work?! :D Then, I came across your blogsite. Is it okay if I ask you a few questions? :)

I saw one of your posts regarding the "Extreme Power Saver" device that you purchased last May 2008. The question is, have you seen a significant drop in your electricity bills since the day you started using it? And also, do you think it's worth the price? (I think you can also call this comment a "follow up") :D

I'm not a sales agent or anything, i'm just an average consumer guy wanting some answers. :D

I appreciate your help. Thank you very much!Ü
