Take this device home to see how much electricity your appliances or electronics are using. I was surprised to learn that lots of things still draw electricity even when they&#8217;re turned off. You can place a Kill-A-Watt on hold through the <a href="http://catalog.waukeganpl.org/record=b1361744~S7" target="_blank">online catalog</a>. Note that a $10 deposit is required when checking out a Kill-A-Watt. Your deposit will be returned when you return the monitor and all its accompanying material to the&nbsp;desk.</p> reduce utilities Mon, 19 Dec 2011 15:51:57 +0000 Sara T 304602 at http://www.waukeganpl.org
