Do you know how much electricity your appliances use?

With a Kill-A-Watt Electricity Usage Monitor, you can monitor devices around your house, and lower energy costs by identifying which use high amounts of electricity. And now, the library is lending out Kill A Watts!

Patrons can check them out at the circulation desk and keep them for three weeks.
