The Energy Detective How much will you save?

TED is a simple, yet extremely accurate, home energy monitor that allows you to see electricity usage in real-time. You no longer have to wait for the 'electricity bill surprise'! TED will accurately tell you what your bill is going to be long before the electric bill arrives. Meanwhile, you will learn more about conserving energy, saving money, and helping save the environment.

With its patented solution to home energy management, TED quantifies electricity and displays the results on its easy-to-read LCD screen. Unlike some complicated electricity conservation systems, TED is a simple, intuitive and affordable way to monitor and manage your entire home's energy consumption. Think of it as your home's speedometer.

With its two-second reaction time, TED provides immediate feedback on energy usage. For you, that means no surprises. You can see what you're spending on electricity each second, as well as what you've spent so far today or so far this month.

For a more comprehensive look at your electricity usage, and to really 'see' where you may be wasting electricity (AND MONEY) check out "TED Footprints"... dynamic software that allows you to log your electricity usage on your PC for graphing, charting, seeing trends, load-profiling and much more!

And with the help of TED, you're not only able to better manage your own dollars, you are also helping your neighbors, your community, and the environment through energy conservation.

 

I had one of these units a while back but had problems with my X10 lighting ... they said they are coming out with a new version which transmits the data wirelessly and not over the power lines. It's nice to be able to graph your usage in realtime, etc.
