The new OWL wireless electricity monitor (model CM119) is a simple way
to see how much electricity individual appliances in your school are
using, and what they are costing you. It provides real time information
on the amount of money you can save by turning off a light, switching a
computer off, or boiling less water in the kettle. Using the OWL will
change the way you behave in your school and with electricity prices
so high, it could easily save you hundreds of pound each year.
A wireless energy monitor that is simple to use yet fully
featured
The new and improved OWL wireless electricity monitor (CM119) is the
latest portable energy monitor to come from the manufacturer,
2 Save Energy. It builds on the award winning features of the original
model such as the compact size and large, clear to read display. The
new OWL has new features that let you see how your energy cost
accumulates over a period of time you choose (be that daily, weekly or
monthly). This lets you see more clearly how you are using electricity
over a cycle of time such as a 24 hour period and how changing your
lifestyle changes that cost. It also has a multiple tariff facility to
cope with Economy 7. The battery life has also been extended
considerably.
The OWL is still simple and quick to install. Simply clip the sensor to
the electricity supply cable* (no expensive electrician required here),
connect the sensor to the transmitter and put in the batteries. It
really is that easy. Watch this short video guide:
* The sensor cannot measure your electricity use if it is clipped over
a 2 or 3 core mains cable. It needs to be connected around the incoming
live cable to the meter or the live mains supply cable between the
meter and the fuse box. If cables are hidden then seek professional
advice please.
