Blue Line Innovations - PowerCost Monitor
You can save up to 20 cents on every dollar you're spending right now on your electricity bill - without changing your lifestyle. And the PowerCost Monitor™ can help you do it.

With a PowerCost Monitor™ you can tell at a glance how much electricity your home is consuming - moment-to-moment and in total. This is the advantage of real-time feedback on your electricity. Why wait for your electricity bill when you can see what you are spending on electricity as you spend it! Tests in Ontario and elsewhere have proven that householders who use real-time feedback can reduce electricity use by as much as five to 20 per cent.

Real-time feedback means real savings for you. Make the PowerCost Monitor™ a regular part of your daily household routine. It's easy to install and simple to use.


DISPLAY FEATURES

The PowerCost Monitor™ features an attractive, counter-top Display Unit that looks like a small electric clock. At the push of a button it displays, in real-time, your moment-to-moment and total electricity costs in dollars and cents and in kilowatt hours.

You will also be able to see your peak energy cost within the last 24 hours. It also displays the time and outside temperature. A battery indicator lets you know when your battery power is low and a signal indicator lets you know the strength of the signal being received from the Sensor Unit.


HELPING YOU $AVE

Start saving on your electricity bill right away with a PowerCost Monitor™. The success of this simple, attractive device is based on the proven value of real-time feedback - helping householders save from five to 20 percent on their monthly electricity bills.

WITH A POWERCOST MONITOR™ YOU'LL BE ABLE TO SEE AT A GLANCE:

  • The amount of electricity your home is using from moment to moment;
  • The difference in electricity consumption caused by turning on and off the various electrical appliances in your home. The more electrical appliances you turn off, the lower the values displayed. The more appliances you turn on, the higher the values.
  • The total amount of money you are spending on electricity.

NStar Energy Monitors May
Lower Consumption

by Shannon Mullen, NPR

The PowerCost Monitor™ is an excellent tool to help you save. By keeping the current value of the Display Unit as low as possible you will use less electricity - up to 20 percent less every month.

And that means, not only are you saving on your electricity bill every month, but you're also reducing greenhouse gas emissions; and reducing demand on the power grid.


HOW IT WORKS

Despite its small size, the PowerCost Monitor™ is a powerful direct feedback device for your home. You can see at a glance, in real time, how much electricity your home is using. Your PowerCost Monitor's™ smart technology measures your home's electricity use and displays that information in a way that you can understand. Your PowerCost Monitor™ displays and calculates this information for dollars and cents and kilowatt hours.

YOUR POWERCOST MONITOR™ INCLUDES TWO COMPONENTS:

  • An easy to install Sensor Unit that you can simply attach to your utility meter outside the house. It does not affect the meter. Once fastened in place, the sensor reads the amount of electricity the household is consuming in real-time and transmits the information wirelessly to the Display Unit, located inside the home.

  • The attractive Display Unit looks like a small digital clock. It fits inconspicuously on a countertop or other convenient household location. It is programmed to decode your Sensor Unit's signal. This information is displayed in large digital numbers that tell you at a glance, in real-time:

    • How much electricity your home is using moment-to-moment;
    • How much you are spending on electricity as you spend it;
    • The highest amount you spent on your energy usage in a 24 hour period;
    • The time, the temperature at meter location, signal strength and the battery strength of both the display and sensor units.

The PowerCost Monitor™ only shows you what your electricity is costing you. Ultimately, it is up to you to use this information to reduce your electricity bill.

The PowerCost Monitor™ is not a utility meter and 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 five percent of the actual amount.
