I'm sure that makes sense to you in connection with an energy meter.
Does it tell you if your flat mate is using the grill? Does it tell you when he leaves it on when you're out? You spend all your time at home staring at an energy meter? Is that before or after that bottle of whisky?
Ah. I really must get an energy meter, To tell others how much a phone costs to charge.
Most electrical devices state their power consumption. But obviously something else of the many things you don't understand.
Ah. Right. You want one to rip off a lodger. Say no more.
because you are the only in existance ?. No one else ever uses any electrical device in yuor home ?
me too, that's how I know what the meter should be reading at an instant in time.
My computer was running a webcam, some use a CCTV systems that has to stay running. I suppose you think they don't use any power. Some have those garden lights that come on when anyone passes by happened o t me on saturday a nieghbour light came on at about 2:15am as I walked past it stayed on for 10 or more mins, before it went off.
and yuo do nothing about it. Good for you.
That's not what an energy meter is for. It is for measuring such things not disaplining sprogs or the brain dead.
again - That's not what an energy meter is for. It is for measuring such things not disaplining sprogs or the brain dead.
Because it could be part of a competition between the kids in the street wh o can use the most electric without being found out. Do yuo serious thing 20 mph road signs stop drivers goign above 20 mph ?
They replaced the ones on out street last year "puddles of light and threatening shadows".
However they seemed to perform well in the freezing fog we had the other day.
One of them failed a couple of weeks after been fitted - but that was probably due to the Mondeo knocking down the lamp post (christ knows how she managed that)
I still have CFLs in stock, but I only use them in outside lights & multi-lamp indoor fittings (e.g., the dining room ceiling has a thing-on-a-chain with 3 lamps pointing up).
Early LEDs tended to exaggerate the light output too. They seem to be a bit better now - but still don't equate to the sort of tungsten most used before.
Outside lights is one where CFLs can perform badly as the mercury vapour pressure can be low and they will take ages to get going.
They do! I got caught out by my first "60W" equivalent LED bulb being way too bright for the small bathroom that I bought it for.
In fact they are slightly brighter than UK 240v incandescents because their set point is calibrated against thicker brighter US 120v coiled coil filaments which are more efficient than UK ones.
Well yes. But then the filament would be nowhere near long enough, so the deal is that you take the coiled tungsten filament and then you coil that. Simples.
