Notes on my energy use, according to the measuring device I borrowed from the library.
My room – 76 watts for the light, 21 watts for the computer. Air conditioner could not be measured.
Sophia’s room – CD player – 3 watts, light 6 watts, heater 2,344watts (2.3KW). Conclusion, heater not to be used.
Kitchen – Could not get a reading on the fridge. Why?
Phone – 3 watts, internet router 3 watts.
Lounge – TV (not on) 1 watt. TV (on) 24 watts. Could not get a reading on the air conditioner.
Margaret’s room – fan 43 watts, computer 14 watts, light 3 watts, CD player 3 watts, heater 1,041watts (1KW)
Outside – Freezer (would not register because I realise I had it set to watts, not kW). Washing machine, varied enormously throughout washing cycle c.200 watts.
