With electricity prices rising, ‘electricity reduction’ devices are being pushed as a way of reducing your bills. There’s a few of them around - I found this one in the Mirror:
Looks like utter bollox & those who actually have relevant qualifications & knowledge seem to be of the same opinion.
Volt was founded by a group of Belgian engineers who set out to find a solution that would allow everyone to pay less for electricity.
By chance, while everyone was working on the project, one of the electricians (Fabien) came across a study which revealed that every year households overpay for electricity by about 28 million pounds. That is, the electricity is charged by the supplier when it is not even used.
And that's when he came up with the idea of inventing a product that would prevent unnecessary power from entering the electricity cables, allowing you to use only the electricity you need. In other words, paying much less for electricity without consuming less.
