  • It says "Load: 300 000 W. Saves 40% Power". Really? I decided to test another version of the popular Chinese Power Savers / Electricity saving boxes. This time it is the metal box version. Having no grounding, this means a risk of electric shock.

    This device actually works if you plug a lot of those devices on every single outlet in your house.
    So you don't have anything else to plug in. Energy saving!

    Judging from the audio shift, I can say that this device saves energy by slowing the time. That's why you can't measure it effectiveness.

    240 volts, 300000 watts with a 5 amp fuse? I wonder what version of ohms law they were using to calculate that? A 5 amp fuse at 240 volts can only handle 1200 watts before blowing!

    we made such "energy saving devices" in primary school. it consisted of an empty mains plug and a capacitor inside, connected in parallel with terminals. we did not actually bother about discharging resistor as the main use was to give shocks to fellow colleagues during the breaks.

  • @ryantoomey611
    @ryantoomey611 6 лет назад +2

    Could this device be useful somewhat as a surge protector? If the voltage sags in your house momentarily due to inrush will the capacitor help keep the voltage constant by dampening it out? Seems like it could also work as a noise filter. If you have RFI or EMI on your wiring this should smooth it out also.

    • @gumpi5
      @gumpi5 5 лет назад +1

      Probably it could. But it would need some PCB and electronic and many milli farad capacity and not only a few micro or nano farad.
      Better throw this away and use a variac instead. ;) It's simple and more useful for surge protection

    • @0x8badf00d

    You did not set up this device on a inductive load, normal light has not much to do with power factor, there for no saving in it, but if you put on a motor load certainly it should improve the power factor which helps to save bill.

      The compensation capacitor is likely to help reduce noise or increase power factor.

      It’s important to note that in some countries in Africa we still pay for inductive loads, our meter bills a measured in the amount of current we consume and the power factor is usually poor. So this device based on your explanation will actually save power!

    I saw resistors in that device. They are used to regulate the flow of electricity just incase the electric company produce more energy which is higher than the exact energy needed by an appliance. That device cannot not generate additional electricity, it can only allow the electric flow stabilize. The company will produce more energy in uncontrolled flow of electricity in houses which is not necessary in some appliances so that the electricity company will earn more income and may cause small damages to some of our appliances. It is somewhat like food that the waiter serve to a customer. However, the waiter will serve more foods which are higher than the number of foods the customer ordered and the customer have no choice but to pay that wrong number of servings. Though, in electricity, a resistor can handle that. It will help to serve a customer with a good number of servings that a customer really order. Other reasons why it is not effective is because of fake markets and abusive use of electricity. We have already resistors at home. We have two.

    There is nothing about energy saving in this device. Capacitor between phase and neutral can reduce reactive power for induction motors if capacity is properly balanced with motor inductance. Which can slightly reduce power bill for households who use appliances with induction motors like vacuum cleaners, HVAC etc. and have old type utility meters where reactive power became wrongly added to real power due to meter design. In households with newer utility meters reactive power is ignored and "power savers" will not "save" anything. Keep in mind that same capacitor for motors with various inductances will not work. So presented device here may be considered as scam.
