Another of these quack power saving devices that claim to reduce your electricity bill. This one also does at least allude to being a transient suppressor of sorts. The case is actually very nice, although the UK style plug pins are fractionally shorter than they should be.

    Thank you!
    I was able to get my wife to cancel her order.

    Not bad value. The cap could be used in a speaker crossover or something actually useful like that!

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars William Volkmann says:

    Wouldn't the cap prove a boost of current on startup?

    I want to start selling "pointless LED box" on eBay for a few cents cheaper than these things, basically just the simple LED circuit, "good as an AC power project case" in the description, and see if they sell better than these "energy savers"

    I don't believe a randomly selected value capacitor will certainly save energy by any means as it has to be calculated how much inductive reactance you typically have at your point of consumption, and choose the right size capacitor, but condemning a product merely on the basis of some nonsense regarding a PCB that doesn't necessarily need to be there at all is a very weak argument. You waffled about a PCB and an LED and why it doesn't have a smoothening capacitor etc more than what you should have said about the main item that can potentially save on your bill, you never even mentioned that it is possible to do so, but said it could protect surges, which is not true at all. The surges can only be protected by capacitors that are earthed, not connected parallel to the power. This is supposedly designed to correct the power factor, but it doesn't do the right job, because it cannot be done by random value capacitors. The size of the right capacitor to correct power factor needs to be calculated for each consumer, and not one size fits all. This should have been the focus of your video, which I will make myself. Thanks for showing inside of the product though! However what the plug is made out of or how many micrometre it's smaller than your made-up standard size or material, it's totally irrelevant at least under this subject.

    Its a BS device which will do nothing like the fake reviews which attest to massive savings.
    The UK government is planning on legislating against fake reviews.

    i bought two of this power factor saver,, thus DO NOTHING STILL THE THE SAME BILL, all it do light green light.. no slow meter ,, all bullshit😂😂👎👎👎

    I THINK SOMEONE HAS A GUN TOWARDS YOUR HEAD. DOES THIS MIRACLE WATT WORK OR NOT? THE CASE IS FOR SHOW AND FOR FOOLS TO BUY..I WILL BUY YOU A TRUCK LOAD OF CASES TO PUT IN YOUR NEXT YOU TUBE VIDEO. FOR CHRISTMAS.HAPPY HOLIDAYS

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars mark says:

    IT'S SILLY AND QUIET RIGHT? BUT DOES SAVE MONEY ON ELECTRICITY MR MATH GUY?

    Do you think voltex needed to plugin in every plugin areas or just one needed to put where is better ?

    I truly expected it to be totally empty inside…
