About a month ago, I decided to try a friend's suggestion to use this sticker in order to lower the electric consumption. That was after a noticeable increase in our electricity bill. After a month of using, the bill came in yesterday and I saw the consumption decreased from 123kw last month to 105kw this month. This is about 14.63% decreased. I am happy with the decrease in my consumption, but I am not sure if this is because of the sticker I used. Until now, I could not decide whether to promote the product or not. My other friends who knew that I have tried it are waiting for my latest post about it. (Note: image used for visual representation only and not for promotional purpose)

I presume that you are talking about the 'Surich Scalar Energy Sticker'. No. It's a complete scam as this engineering lecturer from Stanford University explains. I'm sorry you have been ripped off! Don't let anyone else be!

Thank you for sharing this link. Actually, I used the product and I told my friends to wait because they were asking about it. Although my bill is slightly lower than my previous one, I am not yet sure what was the cause for that. I still need to make a thorough search. Thank you for dropping by.

@ARIES1973 Although your image shows that you used less electricity in July than you did in June, it's still about the same as your May figure (and April is about the same as June), so, even though you did use 14% less in July than in June, it's not really statistically significant. What often happens when you test something like this is that you tend to be more aware of your electricity usage and therefore subconsciously somewhat more careful. It's much more likely that it is that effect that has meant that you used less than 'expected' than any "magic sticker". I did look at the website and, though I don't read Tagalog, the English text was quite enough to show me that there is absolutely no scientific truth in what they claim. They are just using scientific and technical words to make it seem that what they claim is 'scientific' and 'an amazing breakthrough'. Actually, it is all complete nonsense!

One set composed of 1 big sticker and 1 small sticker costs Php 199 or $2. I wrapped it around the wire as shown in the photo above. Basically, we need to use the sticker to every appliances to get the desired result.

@hereandthere I am not yet convinced of the result and up to this time, I am still contemplating whether the product is legit or not. I messaged my other friend and asked her regarding her experience with the sticker. According to her, she was happy because her bill went down by 25%. Thank you for dropping by.

@ARIES1973 i see. so you have to put the sticker on cable of all appliances that are plugged into an electrical outlet. it would be interesting to know what happens on your next meralco bill.
