How Effective Is The Extreme Power Saver?

The unbearable hot weather has caused me to get worried with my high power consumption considering that I could not avoid using an airconditioner AT ALL TIMES whenever I'm at home.  Although MERALCO announced yesterday that it will lower down its power rates this month, I still could not be consoled knowing that I would not be able to maintain anymore my monthly average usage of 60kwh nowadays.

Then my officemate mentioned the Extreme Power Saver.  She learned from the testimony of someone else that accordingly, extreme power saver is effective.  I immediately browsed the web and searched for the product's feedbacks.  I first bumped into this CareerMom's blog wherein the author claims that the extreme power saver functions to its name.  However, when I got across this forum from  http://www.electronicslab.ph, i found out there were conflicting comments regarding the Extreme Power Saver.  Some say the product is composed only of a capacitor and IC (I don't even know what are those for!).  Further research also disclosed that it is effective only when the appliances you are using are already old.


Help!  I really need to know if Extreme Power Saver works!  Right now, I am torn between buying Extreme Power Saver and cooler fan, which both are intended to save power cost but the former has yet to prove its worth.

FYI, according to my officemate, Ace Hardware at MOA has reduced the price of Extreme Power Saver from the regular rate of P1,999 but then the promo will last only until May 13.  In other words, I need to decide fast!

I Created Another Blog!

I would like to introduce you to my newly-created blog entitled Vacation Grande which is found in this web address:  http://www.cheaptickets101.blogspot.com.  As the title and address suggest, the blog is all about seat sales/promos offered by airline companies and maybe, from shipping lines, as well.

I may also feature the places where I have been to and/or the vacation spots that one should take a visit at.  Tips on how to make your travel plans organized and your vacation maximized may also be incorporated therein.

Hence, join me in welcoming this blog with a prayer that this project will become a successful endeavor. :)

How's The Weather?

Wooa!  36 degrees celcius!  How's that?!  That is what I just recently saw from the weather monitor shown on the computer's screen!  Indeed, global warming is already here!

The news from TV reported that Metro Manila felt the hottest temperature at 36+ degrees celcius.  I suddenly remember that I haven't watered my plants since the other night.  I can only imagine that, right now, my plants are now busy... busy dying.  Waaaa!

I wish I could go home now and make up with them.  But then if I would, I might have already been slowly but surely roasted in a hot, scorching weather long before I reach my destination...

I'm Expecting Another Electric Shock

Just when I thought that summer days were already over, I spent my recent weekend at home with the aircon striving to keep my condo unit cool all day and night.  In fact, when I left home this morning, I was so uncomfortable with the hot weather that I was almost tempted to take a leave of absence, stay home, and prolong my 3-day vacation with just another day.  Sigh... if only!

I wonder how much will my power consumption costs this time.  I guess I should consider again my deferred plan of buying a cooler fan.  Sigh again...

Pacquiao, Please Get Ready For Mayweather

As expected, Mayweather maintained his title and won the fight.  No doubt, he is still undefeated.

When asked over an after-fight interview if Manny Pacquiao wants to fight him, Mayweather confidently said that he "is easy to find".  But then he wants Pacquiao to take urine and blood tests.  Is he implying that Pacquiao is taking performance-enhancing drugs?  Hmmm...  Something is fishy here...

I guess Pacquiao should just concede to Mayweather's condition and face the challenge. I'm sure everyone will be looking forward to it. :)

They Should Now Stop The Fight

Update: I don't want to watch the fight anymore.  It is pretty obvious!  Pretty Boy is still unbeatable.  Mosley is already catching his breath.  I took pity on him...

Hey, any second from now, the winner will be declared.

Mayweather and Mosley Fight Update From My Point of View

I'm currently watching the fight of Floyd Mayweather, Jr. and Shane Mosley from my non-cable TV at GMA-7 channel.  I may not know it but maybe as of this writing,  the winner may have already been declared...  Nevertheless..

Although it was a delayed telecast, and aside from the fact that my monitor was hazy (that's what I got for not getting a cable subscription), I still persevere for the main reason that I am visibly impressed with the unbelievable speed and strength of Mayweather.  I wonder if Mosley will survive this fight.  More than that, I wonder if Manny Pacquiao will be able to match, if not beat, Mayweather's boxing capability.

I'll stop for now.  I'll be posting another update later. :)
