Is Pro Power Save a Scam? Review of Electricity Saving Device
Is Pro Power Save a Scam? Review of Electricity Saving Device

Pro Power Save is a scam like so many other so-called power-saving devices. It seems that the scammers just change the name of the device as soon as they have been discovered. There is no device on the market now that can save 90% on your electricity bills. If this was so, then every news media would be talking about his product, especially now, when we're being asked to cut our carbon footprint.

The so-called comments or reviews displayed on websites selling Pro Power Save are fakes. They are there to trick potential victims into buying a product that does not do as advertised. If you want to reduce your electricity usage or bill, see the tips below.

How to Reduce Electricity Usage

  • Appliances and electronics -- Purchase energy-efficient products and operate them efficiently. Use an advanced power strip to reduce "vampire loads"--electricity that is wasted when electronics are not in use.
  • Lighting -- Purchase energy-efficient products, operate them efficiently, and incorporate more daylighting into your home using energy-efficient windows and skylights.
  • Electric space heating and cooling -- Purchase energy-efficient electric systems and operate them efficiently. Incorporate passive solar design concepts into your home, which include using energy-efficient windows. Properly insulate and air seal your home. Select an energy-efficient heating system that doesn't use electricity.
  • Electric water heating -- Purchase an Energy Star heat pump water heater and operate it efficiently.
  • Reduce your “always-on” appliances. If your home has a smart meter and you can see your hourly consumption, then examine your consumption at 3AM. It should be significantly less than your use at 7pm. If it isn’t then you might have “vampire loads.”. Look for electronics that you don’t use (like VCRs!) or can switch off, or perhaps get rid of that extra refrigerator.

Has anyone opened the device to see if it is legitimate?

A guy on another site had an electrical engineer friend open it up. He wrote that all the thing does is powers the green LED light. Internally there is a small circuit board that does that, converts 110 AC to DC to power the LED light, that's it.

This product is a flat out scam and some government agency should put the providers in prison. They won't because most government agencies are too bust lying and using their positions to silence regular honest folks.

This device appears to be nothing more than a Power Factor Correction Capacitor. It may improve a lagging power factor if the residence has highly inductive devices, e.g., motors.
These types of devices may improve the power match and power by 3 to 5 percent, but definitely not 90 percent.

Thank you for helping us consumers out, the world is full of scammers , there need to be a tougher punishment for them , The government is ruining the country already by being weak, scammers are taking over , there needs to be new laws put into place, how is this allowed to be even sold if it’s a scam ..

I read the sales page, and saw this: "The patent-pending magnetic filter removes carbon from the electrical circuit helping to significantly reduce your exposure to harmful electromagnetic radiation."

Now ANYONE who knows ANYTHING about electricity will know that this is complete total B.S.
A magnetic filter to remove CARBON from the circuit? Wow.
