Find out how much electricity that old TV or refrigerator is using. The Seattle Public Library and Seattle City Light have teamed up to make “Kill A Watt” home energy monitors available to Library cardholders at all Library locations.

Beginning May 6, Library patrons can borrow a Kill A Watt device with a Library card, just like a book or DVD. Plug it into an electrical outlet and find out how much it’s costing to run refrigerators, computers, TVs and other home appliances. The Kill A Watt monitor measures the electric consumption of small to medium household electronic devices and appliances, and can even help discover which appliances use electricity even when turned off.

For more information about borrowing a Kill A Watt device, call The Seattle Public Library at 206-386-4636. You can use it to find out how much viewing Wallyhood costs you!
