It is the will power. If you really believe it, it will work; but you need to really really believe in it to work. I failed sad.gif

there's some electrician claimed they could adjust the main to lower the electricity. what were those thing they only knew but not layman? Why are they charging this for their service as well. is it possible ? most of them even guarantee u their service.

Just a very simple remind yourself everytime see such thing.

It is a SCAM.

There is no such thing till now (that is cheap) that can save electrical.

You want to save electrical, you have to invest more. Example is solar panel.

The only way you can save is yourself using it. Just like how good you save your money into bank.

Unless it is illegal.

There is no thing to adjust at the main beside tweaking your meter. Which you know it is illegal.

I actually had something like this done last year. Called in an electrician after my auto gate kena lightning. Then he asked me if I wanna install a voltage regulator for my power main. Costed RM300. But after installation, TNB bill went from RM180-200 to RM150-160. About 20% difference.

Is quite cheap to fix the voltage regulator . my aircond guy said he can help me save the electric bill but he charges me rm 2500 to do this. he didn't mentioned about voltage regulator. im not sure what he can do ?

I don't no what they try to do.

You have to press them to tell more.

I know some illegal way that don't need to touch the meter. But it is still illegal.

I'll do a bit of research after work. Go home and take pictures of the box the electrician installed.

1. your whole house electric system mampos
2. your whole neighbourhood electric down
3. sesco come check, you kena
