The Cent-a-meter tells you the impact of the electricity you are using on your wallet and on the environment at any given moment.

The Cent-a-meter is a wireless real-time electricity monitor for the home that displays real-time electricity usage in cents/hour and kW in addition to greenhouse gas emissions in kg/hour. It displays the cost of electricity being used on a portable, easy to read LCD monitor inside your home.

It acts like an 'electricity speedometer' in the home, building awareness of electricity cost on a real-time basis. Confirm at a glance that nothing has been left on when on your way out of the house. Identify the high power consuming devices, and minimize their operation accordingly. Educate children on the cost of using energy.

If the Cent-a-meter indicates that electricity costs are too high, take control. Check the home to find out what is costing you money, and decide what is worth keeping on.

The Cent-a-meter is already used in more than 30,000 homes world-wide, is now available in the US and Canada through this website.

Note : This product measures total home energy consumption at the panel. To also measure the power consumption of individual appliances, consider purchasing the Cent-a-meter as part of a Total Home Energy Monitor Kit.

The Cent-a-Meter DOES display instantaneous power in kW but does NOT measure or display accumulated power in kWh. For an alternative product that does, try The Energy Detective.
