These things rock. I have the Australian version, which I patiently waited for something like 2 years to finally get here. I've since conducted a thorough energy audit of the whole house. I was surprised that some things don't use as much energy as you think. For example, my CRT only used 60W, and it's 19 inch. Of course, an LCD can use half that, easily.

It pays to measure. If only it weren't so difficult to measure drag coefficient.
