What does 'in stock' mean?

An item can be marked as 'in stock' if a product is located in one or more of our warehouses. For configurated products, an item may be marked as in stock if one or more of the most popular configurations are in stock.

Stock levels are updated at least once per hour. Consequently, an item marked as 'in stock' does not guarantee that the item is still available between updates.

If you purchase an item that is not marked as 'in stock', you can continue to place your order online and you will be advised of lead time on that product within one business day. You may cancel your order at anytime prior to shipping for a full refund.



What is Qwik-Ship?

Qwik-Ship is our fast delivery program. We recognize that customers need the product in their hands as quickly as possible for the lowest possible cost.

Products that are marked as Qwik-Ship are currently showing as in stock in our main warehouse and are ready to ship the same day (for orders placed before 4pm EST). These will typically be delivered within 3 business days to most major urban centers in the lower 48 states, with the exceptions shown on the color-coded map below. You get this fast service for the low price of standard UPS Ground service.

Orders placed after 4pm EST and/or shipping to areas marked on the color-coded map below can take up to 5 days. International orders may take more than 7 business days.

Note : if you order includes products that are NOT marked as Qwik-Ship, it will slow delivery of your order.

How efficient are front-load washing machines? When is it time to replace your old refrigerator? These questions and many more are answered in the Consumer Guide to Home Energy Savings, a one-stop resource for consumers who want to improve their home’s energy performance and reduce costs. Zeroing in on the most useful response can be a challenge - this 9th edition guide cuts through the confusion. It makes an excellent companion product to our line of plug power meters and power use monitors. In fact, our most popular products are used and referenced by the books authors! These are the Kill-A-Watt EZ, Watts Up Pro, Power Cost Monitor, The Energy Detective, and Cent-a-Meter . (You can view one of these references by clicking the 'More Images' button under the product picture above.)

Well-organized and highly readable, the Consumer Guide to Home Energy Savings is published by the ACEEE (American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy) and begins with an overview of the inter-relationships between energy use, economics and the environment. Chapters focus on specific areas in the home, such as electronics, lighting, heating, cooling, ventilation, kitchen and laundry, and provide helpful explanations for each, including:

  • describing energy use characteristics
  • drawing comparisons between the available technologies
  • outlining the most cost-effective repair and replacement options
  • providing step-by-step guidance for finding the right equipment
  • describing how the equipment operates, and
  • summarizing how much energy is used or lost.

Included are tips on improving existing equipment and guidance for when and why consumers should purchase new energy-efficient equipment, as well as a reminder to check local government and utilities for purchase or retrofit grants or incentives. This guide will be an invaluable resource to all consumers concerned about reducing both their energy bills and their environmental impact.
