Energy consumption ratings may help compare new purchases, but what helps us make those daily decisions about when and how we use our appliances.
Too often, consumers are disarmed by the lack of real energy consumption data.
WattTap – Secure Wireless Energy Monitor
Watt Tap is an energy meter that can easily be added to any appliance. It connects to a smartphone app and provides energy consumption history as well as recorded consumption for specific periods. Watt Tap lets you see precisely where energy is consumed by an appliance. It can be transferred easily to any appliance in your home of workplace and help make meaningful, impactful choices.
WattTap is an white-label design based on a Duetware wireless module. It connects to any smartphone securely using NFC pairing of the Bluetooth so your data isn’t broadcast to the world.
The accompanying smartphone app provides several features for helping consumers visualize and understand appliance power consumption including:
- Instantaneous Consumption Graph and a configurable warning that signals when consumption exceeds certain levels.
- History of Power Consumption that allows users to see average consumed power in hourly, daily or monthly views.
- Consumption Recording for an Event that allows users to trigger consumption monitoring and see how much a specific event (e.g. running a load of laundry for example) cost in terms of energy and dollars.
